Creating a Request Provider to Handle API Request States using Riverpod

[MahmoudHafezDarwish]

PART OF GTC OPEN SOURCE INTIATIVE

Our Flutter application currently lacks a centralized and efficient mechanism for handling API request states. To improve the codebase and provide a seamless user experience, we need to implement a Request Provider using Riverpod, a state management library for Flutter. This issue aims to create a Request Provider that can manage API request states, including loading, success, and error states, in a consistent and scalable manner.

Key Objectives:

1. Design and implement a Request Provider using Riverpod to manage API request states throughout the application.
2. Define state models for different request states, including loading, success, and error.
3. Handle loading state to display appropriate loading indicators or progress bars during API requests.
4. Handle success state to propagate the retrieved data to the relevant UI components.
5. Handle error state to display error messages and provide feedback to the user in case of API failures.
6. Implement appropriate error handling mechanisms, such as retrying failed requests or displaying error details.
7. Ensure that the Request Provider is easily accessible and can be consumed by different parts of the application.

To successfully complete this issue, the developer should have a good understanding of Riverpod and its integration with Flutter, as well as experience in handling API requests and managing state. They should be able to create a robust and reusable Request Provider that enhances the application's architecture and improves the overall user experience.
