fetchMoleculeSvg static method
- String smiles
Fetches an SVG representation of the molecule from PubChem
Returns the SVG content as a string that can be displayed in web applications
Implementation
static Future<String> fetchMoleculeSvg(String smiles) async {
if (!isSmilesValid(smiles)) {
throw ArgumentError('Invalid SMILES string provided');
}
final encodedSmiles = Uri.encodeComponent(smiles);
final url = Uri.parse('$pubchemVisualizationUrl/$encodedSmiles/SVG');
final response = await http.get(url);
if (response.statusCode != 200) {
throw Exception('Failed to fetch molecule SVG: ${response.statusCode}');
}
return response.body;
