# HttpClientResponse class

HTTP response for a client connection.

The body of a HttpClientResponse object is a Stream of data from the server. Listen to the body to handle the data and be notified when the entire body is received.

    new HttpClient().get('localhost', 80, '/file.txt')
         .then((HttpClientRequest request) => request.close())
         .then((HttpClientResponse response) {
           response.transform(utf8.decoder).listen((contents) {
             // handle data
           });
         });

## Properties

certificate → X509Certificate
  Returns the certificate of the HTTPS server providing the response. Returns null if the connection is not a secure TLS or SSL connection.
  read-only
connectionInfo → HttpConnectionInfo
  Gets information about the client connection. Returns `null` if the socket is not available.
  read-only
contentLength → int
  Returns the content length of the response body. Returns -1 if the size of the response body is not known in advance. [...]
  read-only
cookies → List<Cookie>
  Cookies set by the server (from the 'set-cookie' header).
  read-only
headers → HttpHeaders
  Returns the client response headers. [...]
  read-only
isRedirect → bool
  Returns whether the status code is one of the normal redirect codes HttpStatus.movedPermanently, HttpStatus.found, HttpStatus.movedTemporarily, HttpStatus.seeOther and HttpStatus.temporaryRedirect.
  read-only
persistentConnection → bool
  Gets the persistent connection state returned by the server. [...]
  read-only
reasonPhrase → String
  Returns the reason phrase associated with the status code. [...]
  read-only
redirects → List<RedirectInfo>
  Returns the series of redirects this connection has been through. The list will be empty if no redirects were followed. redirects will be updated both in the case of an automatic and a manual redirect.
  read-only
statusCode → int
  Returns the status code. [...]
  read-only
first → Future<List<int>>
  The first element of this stream. [...]
  read-only, inherited
hashCode → int
  The hash code for this object. [...]
  read-only, inherited
isBroadcast → bool
  Whether this stream is a broadcast stream.
  read-only, inherited
isEmpty → Future<bool>
  Whether this stream contains any elements. [...]
  read-only, inherited
last → Future<List<int>>
  The last element of this stream. [...]
  read-only, inherited
length → Future<int>

  read-only, inherited
single → Future<List<int>>
  The single element of this stream. [...]

## Methods

detachSocket() → Future<Socket>
  Detach the underlying socket from the HTTP client. When the socket is detached the HTTP client will no longer perform any operations on it. [...]
redirect([String method, Uri url, bool followLoops ]) → Future<HttpClientResponse>
  Redirects this connection to a new URL. The default value for `method` is the method for the current request. The default value for `url` is the value of the HttpHeaders.locationHeader header of the current response. All body data must have been read from the current response before calling redirect. [...]
any(bool test(T element)) → Future<bool>
  Checks whether `test` accepts any element provided by this stream. [...]
  inherited
asBroadcastStream({void onListen(StreamSubscription<T> subscription), void onCancel(StreamSubscription<T> subscription) }) → Stream<List<int>>
  Returns a multi-subscription stream that produces the same events as this. [...]
  inherited
asyncExpand<E>(Stream<E> convert(T event)) → Stream<E>
  Transforms each element into a sequence of asynchronous events. [...]
  inherited
asyncMap<E>(FutureOr<E> convert(T event)) → Stream<E>
  Creates a new stream with each data event of this stream asynchronously mapped to a new event. [...]
  inherited
cast<R>() → Stream<R>
  Adapt this stream to be a `Stream<R>`. [...]
  inherited
contains(Object needle) → Future<bool>
  Returns whether `needle` occurs in the elements provided by this stream. [...]
  inherited
distinct([bool equals(T previous, T next) ]) → Stream<List<int>>
  Skips data events if they are equal to the previous data event. [...]
  inherited
drain<E>([E futureValue ]) → Future<E>
  Discards all data on this stream, but signals when it is done or an error occurred. [...]
  inherited
elementAt(int index) → Future<List<int>>
  Returns the value of the `index`th data event of this stream. [...]
  inherited
every(bool test(T element)) → Future<bool>
  Checks whether `test` accepts all elements provided by this stream. [...]

  Finds the first element of this stream matching `test`. [...]
  inherited
fold<S>(S initialValue, S combine(S previous, T element)) → Future<S>

  inherited
forEach(void action(T element)) → Future
  Executes `action` on each element of this stream. [...]
  inherited
handleError(Function onError, { bool test(dynamic error) }) → Stream<List<int>>
  Creates a wrapper Stream that intercepts some errors from this stream. [...]

pipe(StreamConsumer<List<int>> streamConsumer) → Future
  Pipes the events of this stream into `streamConsumer`. [...]
  inherited
