axios adapter

Install​

npm install alova @alova/adapter-axios axios --save

Instructions​

create alova​

Use axiosRequestAdapter as request adapter for alova.

import { createAlova } from 'alova';
import { axiosRequestAdapter } from '@alova/adapter-axios';

const alovaInst = createAlova({
  //...
  requestAdapter: axiosRequestAdapter()
  //...
});

The adapter will use the default axios instance to make requests internally. If you set some global parameters for axios, you may need to pay attention to the following two points:

  1. Priority is given to using the baseURL and timeout parameters in the axios instance, so if you set these parameters on the axios instance, you do not need to set them in createAlova;
  2. The beforeRequest hook of the alova instance will be triggered earlier than the interceptor.request of the axios instance, and the responded hook of the alova will be triggered later than the interceptor.response of the axios instance;

You can also use custom axios instance

usage​

request​

The usage of request is exactly the same as that used in the web environment. Already fully compatible with axios, you can specify all configuration items supported by axios in config of method instance creation.

<tempate>
   <div v-if="loading">Loading...</div>
   <div>The request data is: {{ data }}</div>
</template>

<script setup>
   const list = () =>
     alovaInst.Get('/list', {
       // The set parameters will be passed to axios
       paramsSerializer: params => {
         return Qs.stringify(params, { arrayFormat: 'brackets' });
       }
     });
   const { loading, data } = useRequest(list);
</script>

Upload​

Use FormData to upload files, and this FormData instance will be passed to axios, which is consistent with the usage of axios upload files.

const uploadFile = imageFile => {
  const formData = new FormData();
  formData.append('file', imageFile);
  return alovaInst.Post('/uploadImg', formData);
};

const {
  loading,
  data,
  uploading,
  send: sendUpload
} = useRequest(uploadFile, {
  immediate: false
});

// Picture selection event callback
const handleImageChoose = ({ target }) => {
  sendUpload(target.files[0]);
};

download​

Point the request url to the file address to download, you can also enable the download progress by setting enableDownload to true.

const downloadFile = () =>
  alovaInst.Get('/bigImage.jpg', {
    responseType: 'blob'
  });

const { loading, data, downloading, send, onSuccess } = useRequest(downloadFile, {
  immediate: false
});
onSuccess(({ data: imageBlob }) => {
  // download image
  const anchor = document.createElement('a');
  anchor.href = URL.createObjectURL(blob);
  anchor.download = 'image.jpg';
  anchor.click();
  URL.revokeObjectURL(anchor.href);
});
const handleImageDownload = () => {
  send();
};

Use custom axios instance​

By default, this adapter will use the default axios instance for requests, but in some cases you need to use a custom created axios instance. You can do this:

const customAxios = axios.create({
  // ...
});

const alovaInst = createAlova({
  // ...
  requestAdapter: axiosRequestAdapter({
    axios: customAxios
  })
});

Mock request adapter compatible​

When developing applications, we may still need to use simulated requests. Only by default, the response data of Mock Request Adapter (@alova/mock) is a Response instance, which is compatible with the alova/fetch request adapter by default. When using the axios adapter, we The response data of the mock request adapter needs to be compatible with AxiosResponse, and the error instance is AxiosError, so you need to use axiosMockResponse exported from the @alova/adapter-axios package as the response adapter .

import { defineMock, createAlovaMockAdapter } from '@alova/mock';
import { axiosRequestAdapter, axiosMockResponse } from '@alova/adapter-axios';

const mocks = defineMock({
  //...
});

// mock data request adapter
export default createAlovaMockAdapter([mocks], {
  // After specifying axios request adapter, requests that do not match the simulated interface will use this adapter to send requests
  httpAdapter: axiosRequestAdapter(),

  // axiosMockResponse contains onMockResponse and onMockError
  // Used to convert mock data to AxiosResponse and AxiosError compatible format
  ...axiosMockResponse
});

export const alovaInst = createAlova({
  //...
  // Control whether to use the simulated request adapter through environment variables
  requestAdapter: process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development' ? mockAdapter : axiosRequestAdapter()
});

##Typescript

The axios request adapter provides complete type adaptation. The type of method configuration and response data will exactly match the type of axios.

method configuration​

When creating a method instance, in addition to the general configuration items in the method, you can also use the configuration items in AxiosRequestConfig, we have removed the items that conflict with the general configuration of the method instance in the type.

/**
 * axios request configuration parameters
 * Removed the attributes that conflicted with the method
 */
export type AlovaAxiosRequestConfig = Omit<
  AxiosRequestConfig,
  | 'url'
  | 'method'
  | 'baseURL'
  | 'headers'
  | 'params'
  | 'data'
  | 'timeout'
  | 'cancelToken'
  | 'signal'
  | 'onUploadProgress'
  | 'onDownloadProgress'
>;

Response data​

The response data type of axios is AxiosResponse, when you use the axios adapter, you will also get the response data in the same format. In actual use, we usually need to process response data globally. A simple example is as follows:

const alovaInst = createAlova(
   baseURL: 'https://api.alovajs.org',
   requestAdapter: axiosRequestAdapter(),
   responded(response) {
     // response is automatically inferred as AxiosResponse type
     return response.data;
   }
});

Error​

When axios receives non-20x and 30x response status codes, it will throw an error. In order to contain more information, axios custom-designed the error instance into an AxiosError instance instead of a normal Error instance, so when encountering An error will be thrown when there is a server error or a network error, and you can catch it in the global error callback.

const alovaInst = createAlova(
   baseURL: 'https://api.alovajs.org',
   requestAdapter: axiosRequestAdapter(),
   responded: {
     onSuccess(response) {
       // response is automatically inferred as AxiosResponse type
       return response.data;
     },
     onError(err: AxiosError) {
       // err type is any by default, you can cast it to AxiosError
       //...
     }
   }
});
