Issue ID: 22142
Summary: Improve error reporting for std.curl.net
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: x86_64
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P1
Component: phobos
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
std.net.curl doesn't provide information when something fails. Consider the
following (not terribly obvious) typo:
client.addRequestHeader("Content-Type", "Application/json");
followed by a call to post:
post("https://api.todoist.com/rest/v1/tasks";, cmd, client);
You get only a generic error message:
HTTP request returned status code 400 ()
Compare this with the error message if you do the same thing with command line
curl. The message is:
Empty content
That immediately points you in the right direction. What is the typo? The line
at the beginning should be
client.addRequestHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
"Status code 400" does not help. "Empty content" does.
