Introduction
In this tutorial, we'll explore how to make HTTP requests using Axios in JavaScript. Axios is a promise-based HTTP client for the browser and Node.js, making it easy to send requests and handle responses.
Making Requests with Axios
A request in Axios is used to send data, such as files or resources, to a server. You can specify the URL and data payload in the request configuration object.
GET and POST Requests in Axios
GET and POST requests in Axios are used to fetch data from a server and send data to a server, respectively. You can use Axios to make these requests by providing the URL and data payload.
PUT and DELETE Requests in Axios
PUT and DELETE requests are used to update or delete resources on a server. Axios allows you to make these requests by specifying the URL and data payload.
Handling Responses and Errors
After making an HTTP request with Axios, you can handle the response using promise callbacks. The response object contains data and status information.
Error Handling with Axios
Axios provides error handling capabilities for failed HTTP requests. You can customize error handling based on HTTP status codes using the Axios configuration options.
Handling API Error Responses with Axios Interceptors
To streamline error handling, you can use Axios interceptors to categorize and display error messages based on the type of error. This can simplify error handling and improve user feedback.
Using Axios with Promise.all to Send Multiple Requests
Axios can be used with Promise.all to send multiple HTTP requests in parallel. This allows you to make simultaneous requests and process the responses efficiently.
