In order to authenticate with Imgur on a mobile app, I decided to spawn an http server on port 8585 in order to complete the oauth flow. The request is read and a response is written, but I cannot access the queryparameters from the url.
I already tried using uri.queryparameters["access_token"], but null is returned.
the server is spawned as follows:
Future<Stream<String>> _server() async {
final StreamController<String> onCode = new StreamController();
HttpServer server =
await HttpServer.bind(InternetAddress.loopbackIPv4, 8585);
server.listen((HttpRequest request) async {
print(request.uri.hashCode);
final String accessToken = request.uri.queryParameters["access_token"];
request.response
..statusCode = 200
..headers.set("Content-Type", ContentType.html.mimeType)
..write("<html><h1>You can now close this window</h1></html>");
await request.response.close();
await server.close(force: true);
onCode.add(accessToken);
await onCode.close();
});
return onCode.stream;
}
the url the server gets is of the sort: http://localhost:8585/callback#access_token=your_token_here&expires_in=315360000&token_type=bearer&refresh_token=_your_refresh_token_here
Can anyone help me? I've been stuck on this for two whole days!
It returns null because query parameters start with
?
at the beginning but in this link, there is a#
before the query parameters and replacing it with a?
does solve the problem.solution 1:
