Get the text body of a response with EntityDecoder
If you've got a request like this:
val postRequest: Task[Request[Task]] = POST(
payload,
uri
)
and you just want the body as text (e.g. for debug), use:
postRequest.map { req =>
client.run(req).use {
case Status.Successful(resp) =>
EntityDecoder.decodeText(resp).flatMap { respText =>
logger.info(s"The body of the response as text is: " + respText)
}
}
}
