Hangs before exit about pub_api_client

[vlidholt]

I'm having the same issue.

The example code can be used to replicate the issue. The following code hangs for me even with the close() call.

import 'package:pub_api_client/pub_api_client.dart';

void main() async {
  final client = PubClient();
  final packageScore = await client.packageScore('fvm');
  client.close();
  print('Package Score: $packageScore');
}

BTW, thanks for this package. It's quite useful.

@mschwartz did you try calling close on the client?

You can do the following way.

  final client = PubClient();
  final packageScore = await client.packageInfo('provider');
  client.client?.close();

[mschwartz]

I can do that, thanks.

You still might consider adding a close() method on the PubClient that does the client?close(). If we use that new close() method and you later implement code that requires more cleanup, we all get it for free.

Again, thanks for this package!

Thanks for adding the close method.

However, the issue persists even with calling client.client?.close().

If I comment out the line that calls client.anymethod(), the program exits immediately. Otherwise there's a several second pause at the end.

I've tried creating the client and closing it for each method call as well as one global client that I reuse and close before program is finished.

I could call exit(), but you might want to investigate this (or not :))

@mschwartz based on my research it seems there are some open issues in regards to the HttpClient, some even point at malformed responses, so I am not 100% sure if this something that needs to be fixed on pub_api_client

Did you fix to close after each method work?

[mschwartz]

Close after each method did not solve the problem. I tried both ways: create, query, close, and create, query, query….

Not being able to replicate this. If there is a sample code that I can use to replicate it would be great
