Using npm:
$ npm install axiosUsing bower:
$ bower install axiosUsing yarn:
$ yarn add axiosUsing jsDelivr CDN:
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/axios/dist/axios.min.js"></script>Using unpkg CDN:
<script src="https://unpkg.com/axios/dist/axios.min.js"></script>In order to gain the TypeScript typings (for intellisense / autocomplete) while using CommonJS imports with require() use the following approach:
const axios = require('axios').default;
// axios.<method> will now provide autocomplete and parameter typingsPerforming a GET request
const axios = require('axios').default;
// Make a request for a user with a given ID
axios.get('/user?ID=12345')
.then(function (response) {
// handle success
console.log(response);
})
.catch(function (error) {
// handle error
console.log(error);
})
.then(function () {
// always executed
});
// Optionally the request above could also be done as
axios.get('/user', {
params: {
ID: 12345
}
})
.then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
})
.then(function () {
// always executed
});
// Want to use async/await? Add the `async` keyword to your outer function/method.
async function getUser() {
try {
const response = await axios.get('/user?ID=12345');
console.log(response);
} catch (error) {
console.error(error);
}
}NOTE:
async/awaitis part of ECMAScript 2017 and is not supported in Internet Explorer and older browsers, so use with caution.
Performing a POST request
axios.post('/user', {
firstName: 'Fred',
lastName: 'Flintstone'
})
.then(function (response) {
console.log(response);
})
.catch(function (error) {
console.log(error);
});Performing multiple concurrent requests
function getUserAccount() {
return axios.get('/user/12345');
}
function getUserPermissions() {
return axios.get('/user/12345/permissions');
}
Promise.all([getUserAccount(), getUserPermissions()])
.then(function (results) {
const acct = results[0];
const perm = results[1];
});Requests can be made by passing the relevant config to axios.
// Send a POST request
axios({
method: 'post',
url: '/user/12345',
data: {
firstName: 'Fred',
lastName: 'Flintstone'
}
});// GET request for remote image in node.js
axios({
method: 'get',
url: 'http://bit.ly/2mTM3nY',
responseType: 'stream'
})
.then(function (response) {
response.data.pipe(fs.createWriteStream('ada_lovelace.jpg'))
});// Send a GET request (default method)
axios('/user/12345');For convenience, aliases have been provided for all common request methods.
