How to set header and options in axios?

Question

I use Axios to perform an 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) 

Answer 1

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   } })
