Axios in JavaScript: How to make GET, POST, PUT and DELETE requests
- Axios is a promise-based HTTP client for making asynchronous HTTP requests in JavaScript for the browser and Node.js.
- Axios provides a more powerful and flexible feature set compared to Fetch, including request and response interception, streamlined error handling, protection against XSRF, and support for upload progress.
- To install Axios, you can use npm, Yarn, pnpm, or a content delivery network (CDN).
- Making HTTP requests with Axios involves importing the axios function and passing a configuration object containing properties like method, URL, data, headers, and timeout.
- GET requests with Axios are made by specifying 'get' as the method and the URL to be fetched from.
- POST requests with Axios involve providing the URL and an object with key-value pairs to be sent to the server.
- PUT requests in Axios are used to create or update a resource on the server by providing the resource's URI and payload data.
- DELETE requests in Axios are used to remove a resource from the server by passing the method as 'delete' and the URL with a query parameter.
- Axios provides shorthand methods like axios.get, axios.post, and others for different types of requests.
- Axios handles responses and errors with promises, using the then() method for successful responses and the catch() method for errors.
