Unable to catch Flutter Dio exception

I found a hacky solution. We are overriding all the exceptions thrown by default. Then we are going to create custom interceptor to handle and throw exceptions. This way we can catch the DioException as we did before.

  1. Create a base client like this. You have to set validateStatus function to return true whatever the status code is.
final baseOptions = BaseOptions(
  baseUrl: host,
  contentType: Headers.jsonContentType,
  validateStatus: (int? status) {
    return status != null;
    // return status != null && status >= 200 && status < 300;

Flutter Maps Animate to location

Refer https://github.com/fleaflet/flutter_map/blob/master/example/lib/pages/animated_map_controller.dart

void _animatedMapMove(LatLng destLocation, double destZoom) {
    // Create some tweens. These serve to split up the transition from one location to another.
    // In our case, we want to split the transition be<tween> our current map center and the destination.
    final latTween = Tween<double>(
        begin: mapController.center.latitude, end: destLocation.latitude);
    final lngTween = Tween<double>(
        begin: mapController.center.longitude, end: destLocation.longitude);

Enable PipeWire on Ubuntu 22.04

Enable PipeWire on Ubuntu 22.04

This guide is only for original Ubuntu out-of-the-box packages. If you have added a custom PPA like pipewire-debian, you might get into conflicts.

Ubuntu 22.04 has PipeWire partially installed and enabled as it's used by browsers (WebRTC) for recoding the screeen under Wayland. We can enable remaining parts and use PipeWire for audio and Bluetooth instead of PulseAudio.

Starting from WirePlumber version 0.4.8 automatic Bluetooth profile switching (e.g. switching from A2DP to HSP/HFP when an application needs microphone access) is supported. Jammy (22.04) repos provide exactly version 0.4.8. So, we're good.

Based on Debian Wiki, but simplified for Ubuntu 22.04.
