Grabbing an image via GetStreamAsync, how do I determine status?
HttpClient OpenClient = new HttpClient();
Stream firstImageStream = OpenClient.GetStreamAsync("imageUrl.jpg").Result;
Sometimes this will give an error (403 or 404 typically) and I simply want to skip processing those results.
All I can find says to use the StatusCode property or IsSuccessStatusCode, but those seem to only work on HttpResponseMessage, which is from GetAsync, which does not give me the Stream I need to process the image.
The stream doesn't have the response status code. You'll need to get the HttpResponseMessage first, check the status code, and then read in the stream.
HttpClient OpenClient = new HttpClient();
var response = await OpenClient.GetAsync("imageUrl.jpg");
if (response.StatusCode == System.Net.HttpStatusCode.OK)
{
Stream stream = await response.Content.ReadAsStreamAsync();
}
