Json Empty after parse even though status 200

Question

I am trying to parse a JSON after doing a HTTP GET request for my flutter app, however when it is parsed, the body shows as empty, this is the parsing code

urlHausParseBox() {
Future<_GoneSmishinState> fetchUrlResponse() async {
  String url = myController.text;
  final response = await http.post(
      Uri.parse("https://urlhaus-api.abuse.ch/v1/url/"),
      headers: <String, String>{
        'Accept': 'application/json',
      },
      body: (<String, String>{
        'url': url,
        'query_status': query_status,
        'url_status' : url_status,
        //'status' : status,
        //'urlStatus' : urlStatus,
      }));

After this I have a check for the 200 status, and when recieved will return this to use after the fact, I printed the fields 'query_status' and 'url_status' but they came up empty so I printed what I was returning here

if (response.statusCode == 200) {
    print (_GoneSmishinState.fromJson(jsonDecode(response.body)));
    return _GoneSmishinState.fromJson(jsonDecode(response.body));

but all that is printed out is _GoneSmishinState#23f48(lifecycle state: created, no widget, not mounted) which is not what is supposed to be returned by the HTTP GET request

The rest of my code is below

    import 'dart:convert';
import 'package:validators/validators.dart';
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:sms/sms.dart';
import 'dart:io';

String url = "https://urlhaus-api.abuse.ch/v1/urls/recent/"; //address for URL file

Answer 1

Change this:

  _GoneSmishinState({
    required this.query_status,
    required this.url_status,
  });
  final String query_status;
  final String url_status;

  factory _GoneSmishinState.fromJson(Map<String, dynamic> json) {
    return _GoneSmishinState(
      query_status: json["query_status"],
      url_status: json["url_status"],
    );
  }

to this:

  _GoneSmishinState();
  var queryStatus = '';
  var urlStatus = '';

and this:

  if (response.statusCode == 200) {
    print (_GoneSmishinState.fromJson(jsonDecode(response.body)));
    return _GoneSmishinState.fromJson(jsonDecode(response.body));
  }

to:

  if (response.statusCode == 200) {
    setState(() {
        final decoded = json.decode(response.body);
        queryStatus = decoded['query_status'];
        urlStatus = decoded['url_status'];
      }
    );
  }

And, finally, patch up any unused/misnamed variables. As an aside, it's difficult to read functions declared inside other functions. Is fetchUrlResponse inside urlHausParseBox? Move it outside.
