http.MultipartFile not found in auto generated chopper.dart

[josephchenghmlet]

Hi, i've tried to add MultipartFile which is from package:http/http.dart as http but the auto generated chopper file return error.

Followed #55, #65

How do I send multiple Multipart files with same multipart key?

chopper: ^3.0.0 chopper_generator: ^3.0.0

// api_service.dart
...
import 'package:http/http.dart' as http;
...
@Post(path: "support/", headers: {"Authorization": ""})
  @multipart
  Future<Response> submitNewTicket({
    ...
    @PartFile('attachment') List<http.MultipartFile> attachments,
  });
...

// api_service.chopper.dart

Future<Response> submitNewTicket(
      {List<MultipartFile> attachments}) { // error red line at `MultipartFile`
    final $url = 'support/';
    final $headers = {'Authorization': ''};
    final $parts = <PartValue>[
      PartValueFile<List<MultipartFile>>('attachment', attachments) // error red line at `MultipartFile`
    ];
    final $request = Request('POST', $url, client.baseUrl,
        parts: $parts, multipart: true, headers: $headers);
    return client.send<dynamic, dynamic>($request);
  }

@josephchenghmlet could you resolve your problem?

Hi @MahdiPishguy, I've switched todio temporary for post multipartfile.

Welcome back @lejard-h

aliased import seems difficult to handle with source_gen, I can't find any resource to help me.

But you can change your import to import 'package:http/http.dart' show MultipartFile; or just import 'package:http/http.dart';

Hi @lejard-h, thank you. Let me try and update you if there's outcome.

It's the exact same thing with BuiltValue. From some reason, code generators, in general, are having difficulty with library aliases.

I think I'm having this same issue. If I

import 'package:chopper/chopper.dart' as ch;

then my generated code does NOT contain the import prefix.
