I use axios to perform a HTTP post like this:
import axios from 'axios'
params = {'HTTP_CONTENT_LANGUAGE': self.language}
headers = {'header1': value}
axios.post(url, params, headers)
Is this correct? Or should I do:
axios.post(url, params: params, headers: headers)
Axios can be used in any of the following ways:
// Make a request for a user with a given ID
axios.get('/user?ID=12345')
.then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
// Optionally the request above could also be done as
axios.get('/user', {
params: {
ID: 12345
}
})
.then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
then for a post request:
axios.post('/user', {
firstName: 'Fred',
lastName: 'Flintstone'
})
.then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
});
Do not forget to import axios library before making an ajax call with axios
There are several ways to do this:
For a single request:
let config = {
headers: {
header1: value,
}
}
let data = {
'HTTP_CONTENT_LANGUAGE': self.language
}
axios.post(URL, data, config).then(...)
For setting default global config:
axios.defaults.headers.post['header1'] = 'value' // for POST requests
axios.defaults.headers.common['header1'] = 'value' // for all requests
For setting as default on axios instance:
let instance = axios.create({
headers: {
post: { // can be common or any other method
header1: 'value1'
}
}
})
//- or after instance has been created
instance.defaults.headers.post['header1'] = 'value'
//- or before a request is made
// using Interceptors
instance.interceptors.request.use(config => {
config.headers.post['header1'] = 'value';
return config;
});
You can send a get request with Headers (for authentication with jwt for example):
axios.get('https://example.com/getSomething', {
headers: {
Authorization: 'Bearer ' + token //the token is a variable which holds the token
}
})
Also you can send a post request.
axios.post('https://example.com/postSomething', {
email: varEmail, //varEmail is a variable which holds the email
password: varPassword
},
{
headers: {
Authorization: 'Bearer ' + varToken
}
})
My way of doing it,is to set a request like this:
axios({
method: 'post', //you can set what request you want to be
url: 'https://example.com/request',
data: {id: varID},
headers: {
Authorization: 'Bearer ' + varToken
}
})
You can pass a config object to axios like:
axios({
method: 'post',
url: '....',
params: {'HTTP_CONTENT_LANGUAGE': self.language},
headers: {'header1': value}
})
This is a simple example of a configuration with headers and responseType:
var config = {
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' },
responseType: 'blob'
};
axios.post('http://YOUR_URL', this.data, config)
.then((response) => {
console.log(response.data);
});
Content-Type can be 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' or 'application/json'
and it may work also 'application/json;charset=utf-8'
responseType can be 'arraybuffer', 'blob', 'document', 'json', 'text', 'stream'
In this example, this.data is the data you want to send. It can be a value or an Array. (If you want to send an object you'll probably have to serialize it)
You can initialize a default header axios.defaults.headers
axios.defaults.headers = {
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
Authorization: 'myspecialpassword'
}
axios.post('https://myapi.com', { data: "hello world" })
.then(response => {
console.log('Response', response.data)
})
.catch(e => {
console.log('Error: ', e.response.data)
})
