dart BrowserClient - how to read response headers? - http

I don't manage to read response headers using browser_client.dart :
import 'package:http/browser_client.dart';
var response =
await client.post(url, headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Accept': 'application/json'
}, body: body);
print('Response headers: ${response.headers}');
Thanks for your help.

The server needs to allow the browser to expose the headers by listing the headers in the Access-control-expose-headers response header, otherwise you can see them in the browser devtools but when you try to read them in code, the browser will suppress them.

on Nextjs, how to perform a fetch request from an an external public api?

The api is public. Access privallages are to any and everyone.
I've made the same fetch-calls using frameworks such as angular, but on Nextjs I keep running into cors policy errors.
Can someone please explain how I can get the fetch call to work, or provide an example.
I can't fetch from local host as well. There's clearly an error in my practice.
'Access to fetch at '...' from origin 'http://localhost:3000' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled.'
Code example, if helpful:
let fetched =
await fetch('http://127.0.0.1:5001/helloWorld'
, { method: 'GET',
}).then((result)=> console.log('promise complete', result.status));
You need to set mode:'cors'
const response = await fetch(url, {
method: 'GET', // *GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, etc.
mode: 'cors',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
// 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded',
}
});

Ionic 3 - Http Get 401 (Unauthorized)

I’m calling a service using a token
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 401 (Unauthorized)
Http failure response for http://localhost:65291/api/post: 401 Unauthorized
The same call works in Postman with Headers;
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer token
The function in ionic is
getPosts() {
var header = new HttpHeaders({ "Content-Type": "application/json" });
header.append("Authorization", "Bearer " + this.token);
console.log("Bearer " + this.token);
return new Promise(resolve => {
console.log(this.apiUrl + '/post');
this.http.get(this.apiUrl + '/post', { headers: header}).subscribe((data: Post[]) => {
resolve(data);
}, err => {
console.log(err);
});
});
}
Added a log for the token to be sure that is adding it to the header correctly (the token is fine).
The apiUrl variable has value http://localhost:65291/api.
What is wrong here? Cors is enabled… Postman works ok…
Thanks
I think you definitely have client side problem (since its 401 and also you mention Postman works ok).
I had similar issues when I tried to append headers in the same fashion you did so I would suggest trying this (to eliminate this problem):
getPosts() {
// try forming headers object in one go:
let token = "Bearer "+this.token
let headers = new HttpHeaders({
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"Authorization": token
});
// now here I am not sure why you do promise wrapping this way, but then I would suggest:
return this.http.get(this.apiUrl + '/post', { headers: headers })
.toPromise()
.then((data: Post[]) => { // Success
console.log(data);
resolve(data);
}, (err) => {
console.log(err);
});
}
If the problem is still there - please share which version of Angular and Http module you are using?
Also check out this issue here: How to correctly set Http Request Header in Angular 2
And specifically this answer if you are on Angular 4.3+:
How to correctly set Http Request Header in Angular 2
After a while I found the problem,
header.append("Authorization", "Bearer " + this.token); is wrong. It worked using
let headers = new HttpHeaders({"Authorization: " + "Bearer " + this.token})
Setting multiple headers:
this.http
.post('api/items/add', body, {
headers: new HttpHeaders({
'Authorization': 'my-auth-token',
'x-header': 'x-value'
})
}).subscribe()
I had a similar problem, it works on postman and cors enabled but in the app doesn't work, my problem was i have / at the end of the URL in the API security config, and i was making the request without /, i just remove it from request URL,
also you can add /* in security config or put / in your app, the URL must be the same.
(maybe you have solved your issue and it was different issue but this is a possibe solution)

Meteor HTTP response content un readable

This Meteor server code uses atmosphere HTTP package. I receive human un readable characters from response.content even though characters are readable fine in the browser.
Why and how to fix that? Thanks
const response = HTTP.call(method, url, {
timeout: 30000,
headers: header,
params: Params,
followRedirects: true
}
);
console.log(response.content);
response header has:
'content-type': 'text/html'
'content-encoding': 'gzip'
request header has:
"Accept-Encoding": "gzip, deflate",
"Accept-Language": "en-US,en;q=0.5",
"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"

Http REST call problems No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' on POST

I have not been able to get Angular $http to communicate with a remote REST service. I have tried Restangular and $resource too. The problem seems to be with the underlying $http service and CORS limitations. I think I just need to get my headers right. Do I also need to tweak my server config?
I am getting the following error:
XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://www.EXAMPLE-DOMAIN.com/api/v2/users/sign_in. No 'Access-Control- Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:8100' is therefore not allowed access.
I have researched this a lot. Currently I have tried setting the $httpProvider headings when configuring my app module and played with $http headers. Below is some of my current code.
My Service
app.service('Auth', function($http) {
var headers = {
'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' : '*',
'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' : 'POST, GET, OPTIONS, PUT',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Accept': 'application/json'
};
return $http({
method: "POST",
headers: headers,
url: 'http://www.EXAMPLE-DOMAINcom/api/v2/users/sign_in',
data: {"email":"my#email.com","password":"secret"}
}).success(function(result) {
console.log("Auth.signin.success!")
console.log(result);
}).error(function(data, status, headers, config) {
console.log("Auth.signin.error!")
console.log(data);
console.log(status);
console.log(headers);
console.log(config);
});
});
App Config
var app = angular.module('starter', ['ionic', 'app.controllers', $httpProvider])
.config(['$httpProvider', function($httpProvider) {
$httpProvider.defaults.useXDomain = true;
$httpProvider.defaults.headers.common = 'Content-Type: application/json';
delete $httpProvider.defaults.headers.common['X-Requested-With'];
}
])
If you are in control of the server, you might need to set the required headers there. Depending on which server, this might help: http://enable-cors.org/server.html

request headers not submitted during post request using the WiFlyHQ lib

using the WiFlyHQ library i try to send an POST request, it seems like the request header get cropped, if i inspect the request on the server i can see the following:
headers: { host: 'localhost:3000', 'content-type': 'application' },
with this setup;
void SendJasonPacket()
{
wifly.open(Server, ServerPort);
wifly.println("POST / HTTP/1.1");
wifly.println("Host: localhost:3000");
wifly.println("Content-type: application/json");
wifly.println("Accept: application/json");
wifly.println("Content-Length: 93");
wifly.println("User-Agent: easyNAM/0.0.1");
wifly.println("{'checkin':{'device_token': '122','card_token': '12312', 'timestamp': '2012-10-29T14:31:03'}}");
wifly.close();
}
i tried a couple of different headers, that's what i got:
headers: { 'user-agent': 'easyNAM/0.0.1', accept: 'application/j' },
headers: { accept: 'application/json', 'user-agent': 'easyNAM/0' },
headers: { host: 'localhost:3000', 'content-type': 'application' },
it seems, that it get cropped after a specific character count, not sure what i did wrong here....
I believe memory is the issue, i ran into the same issue. I am using VS 2012 to build my app and when it reaches 60% it tends to act sporadically.
