  • axios.patch/put(url)

  • axios.delete(url)

  • default get axios(url)

  • returns a promise

  • response data located in data property

  • error in error.response

import axios from 'axios';

const fetchData = async () => {
  try {
    // axios.get(), axios.post(),axios.put(), axios.delete()
    const response = await axios(url);

    console.log(response);
  } catch (error) {
    console.log(error.response);
  }
};

Headers

  • second argument

  • axios.get(url,{})

  • third argument in requests with data

  • axios.post(url,{data},{})

const fetchDadJoke = async () => {
  try {
    const { data } = await axios(url, {
      headers: {
        Accept: 'application/json',
      },
    });
    // console.log(data);
    setJoke(data.joke);
  } catch (error) {
    console.log(error.response);
  }
};

Post Request

  • send data to the server
  • axios.post(url, { data })
  • more options (auth header) - axios.post(url, { data },{})
try {
  const resp = await axios.post(url, { data });
} catch (error) {
  console.log(error.response.data);
}

axios.defaults.headers.common['Accept'] = 'application/json';
axios.defaults.baseURL = 'https://api.example.com';
axios.defaults.headers.common['Authorization'] = AUTH_TOKEN;
axios.defaults.headers.post['Content-Type'] =
  'application/x-www-form-urlencoded';

    console.log('request sent');
    // must return request
    return request;
  },
  (error) => {
    return Promise.reject(error);
  }
);

authFetch.interceptors.response.use(
  (response) => {
    console.log('got response');
    return response;
  },
  (error) => {
    console.log(error.response);
    if (error.response.status === 404) {
      // do something
      console.log('NOT FOUND');
    }
    return Promise.reject(error);
  }
);
