Issue
I am trying to send data from Flutter to Node-RED (to Raspberry Pi) over HTTP (not HTTPS). The URL http://bierbrauserver.ddns.net is from NO-IP (DDNS). The transfer to a test server from a Youtube Tutorial works fine. But when I change the URL from "https://reqres.in/api/users" to "http://bierbrauserver.ddns.net:1880" I get no input in the debug window of Node-RED. I tried in the AndroidManifest.xml to add the entry so that http is allowed, but that didn't solve the problem either. Furthermore I checked the port forwarding in the WLAN router configuration of the network where the Raspberry Pi is located. Here a port forwarding of HTTP and 1880 (Node-RED) was configured. The connection of the IP addresses should be ok, because I can access a database from an external port, which is also located on the Raspberry Pi. Can it be that only httpS post requests are possible ?
Future<UserModel> createUser(String name, String jobTitle)async{
const String Url = "https://reqres.in/api/users";
// const String Url = "https://bierbrauserver.ddns.net:1880";
final response = await http.post(Uri.parse(Url),body:
{
"name": name,
"job": jobTitle
});
if (response.statusCode == 201) {
final String responseString = response.body;
return userModelFromJson(responseString);
}
else
{
print(response.statusCode);
return UserModel(name:'Fail',job: 'Fail', id: 'Fail', createdAt: DateTime.now());
}
}
Thank you for your help.
Solution
The problem is solved. The program code has already been modified because I forgot to answer the question immediately when the problem was fixed. The problem was hidden in the Node-RED program. The wrong Node was selected in Node-RED. The URL was extended with "/test", which is reused in Node-RED in the "http in" node. Now everything works fine.
For your information: "Zutat_1", "Zutat_2", "Zutat_3" and "Zutat_4" are global variables in this program and therefore do not have to be passed to the "createRezept" function. Additionally, it should be mentioned that some elements in the code that do not belong to the English language are executed in the German language.
Future<RezeptModel> createRezept()async{
const String Url = "http://bierbrauserver.ddns.net:1880/test";
final response = await http.post(Uri.parse(Url),body:
{
"zutat1": Zutat_1.toStringAsFixed(2),
"zutat2": Zutat_2.toStringAsFixed(2),
"zutat3": Zutat_3.toStringAsFixed(2),
"zutat4": Zutat_4.toStringAsFixed(2),
"createdAt" : DateTime.now().toIso8601String()
});
if (response.statusCode == 201) {
final String responseString = response.body;
return rezeptModelFromJson(responseString);
}
else
{
print(response.statusCode);
return RezeptModel(zutat1:"Fehler",zutat2: "Fehler", zutat3: "Fehler", zutat4: "Fehler",createdAt: DateTime.now());
}
}
Here is the code which is used for parsing.(This is in a separate file, which in my case is named "Rezept_model.dart" )
import 'dart:convert';
RezeptModel rezeptModelFromJson(String str) => RezeptModel.fromJson(json.decode(str));
String rezeptModelToJson(RezeptModel data) => json.encode(data.toJson());
class RezeptModel {
RezeptModel({
required this.zutat1,
required this.zutat2,
required this.zutat3,
required this.zutat4,
required this.createdAt,
});
String zutat1;
String zutat2;
String zutat3;
String zutat4;
DateTime createdAt;
factory RezeptModel.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) => RezeptModel(
zutat1: json["zutat1"],
zutat2: json["zutat2"],
zutat3: json["zutat3"],
zutat4: json["zutat4"],
createdAt: DateTime.parse(json["createdAt"]),
);
Map<String, dynamic> toJson() => {
"zutat1": zutat1,
"zutat2": zutat2,
"zutat3": zutat3,
"zutat4": zutat4,
"createdAt": createdAt.toIso8601String(),
};
}

Many thanks to all those who have dealt with this problem. Here are still two images deposited around the connections to clarify.
