If we plan to implement the eCampus / Flexnow connection, we will write this wiki page.
Dio is a powerful Http client for Dart, which supports Interceptors, Global configuration, FormData, Request Cancellation, File downloading, Timeout etc.
In comparison to the standard HTTP client, Dio provides a lot of handy features such as automatic Cookie- and Session-Management. That makes our life easier. At the beginning of development just the standard HTTP client was used and caused problems. That the reason why we switched to Dio.
The Dio client is initialized inside the injection Container located inside lib/core/injection.dart. The DioUtils class takes the Dio client a CookieJar to initialize
both correctly and DISABLE CERTIFICATE VALIDATION. For security reasons, this has to be
fixed before we release the first version. But in some scenarios we recognized abnormal behavior of some RUB servers. So future research is needed!
