 | |
| $ npm install axios
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using bower:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash
 | |
| $ bower install axios
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using yarn:
 | |

 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using jsDelivr CDN:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```html
 | |
| <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/axios/dist/axios.min.js"></script>
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using unpkg CDN:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```html
 | |
| <script src="https://unpkg.com/axios/dist/axios.min.js"></script>
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Example
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### note: CommonJS usage
 | |
| In order to gain the TypeScript typings (for intellisense / autocomplete) while using CommonJS imports with `require()` use the following approach:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const axios = require('axios').default;
 | |
| 
 | |
| // axios.<method> will now provide autocomplete and parameter typings
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Performing a `GET` request
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| 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/await` is part of ECMAScript 2017 and is not supported in Internet
 | |
| > Explorer and older browsers, so use with caution.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Performing a `POST` request
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| axios.post('/user', {
 | |
|     firstName: 'Fred',
 | |
|     lastName: 'Flintstone'
 | |
|   })
 | |
|   .then(function (response) {
 | |
|     console.log(response);
 | |
|   })
 | |
|   .catch(function (error) {
 | |
|     console.log(error);
 | |
|   });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Performing multiple concurrent requests
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| 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];
 | |
|   });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## axios API
 | |
| 
 | |
| Requests can be made by passing the relevant config to `axios`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ##### axios(config)
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| // Send a POST request
 | |
| axios({
 | |
|   method: 'post',
 | |
|   url: '/user/12345',
 | |
|   data: {
 | |
|     firstName: 'Fred',
 | |
|     lastName: 'Flintstone'
 | |
|   }
 | |
| });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| // 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'))
 | |
|   });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ##### axios(url[, config])
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| // Send a GET request (default method)
 | |
| axios('/user/12345');
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Request method aliases
 | |
| 
 | |
| For convenience, aliases have been provided for all common request methods.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ##### axios.request(config)
 | |
| ##### axios.get(url[, config])
 | |
| ##### axios.delete(url[, config])
 | |
| ##### axios.head(url[, config])
 | |
| ##### axios.options(url[, config])
 | |
| ##### axios.post(url[, data[, config]])
 | |
| ##### axios.put(url[, data[, config]])
 | |
| ##### axios.patch(url[, data[, config]])
 | |
| 
 | |
| ###### NOTE
 | |
| When using the alias methods `url`, `method`, and `data` properties don't need to be specified in config.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Concurrency (Deprecated)
 | |
| Please use `Promise.all` to replace the below functions.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Helper functions for dealing with concurrent requests.
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.all(iterable)
 | |
| axios.spread(callback)
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Creating an instance
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can create a new instance of axios with a custom config.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ##### axios.create([config])
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const instance = axios.create({
 | |
|   baseURL: 'https://some-domain.com/api/',
 | |
|   timeout: 1000,
 | |
|   headers: {'X-Custom-Header': 'foobar'}
 | |
| });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Instance methods
 | |
| 
 | |
| The available instance methods are listed below. The specified config will be merged with the instance config.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ##### axios#request(config)
 | |
| ##### axios#get(url[, config])
 | |
| ##### axios#delete(url[, config])
 | |
| ##### axios#head(url[, config])
 | |
| ##### axios#options(url[, config])
 | |
| ##### axios#post(url[, data[, config]])
 | |
| ##### axios#put(url[, data[, config]])
 | |
| ##### axios#patch(url[, data[, config]])
 | |
| ##### axios#getUri([config])
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Request Config
 | |
| 
 | |
| These are the available config options for making requests. Only the `url` is required. Requests will default to `GET` if `method` is not specified.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| {
 | |
|   // `url` is the server URL that will be used for the request
 | |
|   url: '/user',
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `method` is the request method to be used when making the request
 | |
|   method: 'get', // default
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `baseURL` will be prepended to `url` unless `url` is absolute.
 | |
|   // It can be convenient to set `baseURL` for an instance of axios to pass relative URLs
 | |
|   // to methods of that instance.
 | |
|   baseURL: 'https://some-domain.com/api/',
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `transformRequest` allows changes to the request data before it is sent to the server
 | |
|   // This is only applicable for request methods 'PUT', 'POST', 'PATCH' and 'DELETE'
 | |
|   // The last function in the array must return a string or an instance of Buffer, ArrayBuffer,
 | |
|   // FormData or Stream
 | |
|   // You may modify the headers object.
 | |
|   transformRequest: [function (data, headers) {
 | |
|     // Do whatever you want to transform the data
 | |
| 
 | |
|     return data;
 | |
|   }],
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `transformResponse` allows changes to the response data to be made before
 | |
|   // it is passed to then/catch
 | |
|   transformResponse: [function (data) {
 | |
|     // Do whatever you want to transform the data
 | |
| 
 | |
|     return data;
 | |
|   }],
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `headers` are custom headers to be sent
 | |
|   headers: {'X-Requested-With': 'XMLHttpRequest'},
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `params` are the URL parameters to be sent with the request
 | |
|   // Must be a plain object or a URLSearchParams object
 | |
|   params: {
 | |
|     ID: 12345
 | |
|   },
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `paramsSerializer` is an optional function in charge of serializing `params`
 | |
|   // (e.g. https://www.npmjs.com/package/qs, http://api.jquery.com/jquery.param/)
 | |
|   paramsSerializer: function (params) {
 | |
|     return Qs.stringify(params, {arrayFormat: 'brackets'})
 | |
|   },
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `data` is the data to be sent as the request body
 | |
|   // Only applicable for request methods 'PUT', 'POST', 'DELETE , and 'PATCH'
 | |
|   // When no `transformRequest` is set, must be of one of the following types:
 | |
|   // - string, plain object, ArrayBuffer, ArrayBufferView, URLSearchParams
 | |
|   // - Browser only: FormData, File, Blob
 | |
|   // - Node only: Stream, Buffer
 | |
|   data: {
 | |
|     firstName: 'Fred'
 | |
|   },
 | |
|   
 | |
|   // syntax alternative to send data into the body
 | |
|   // method post
 | |
|   // only the value is sent, not the key
 | |
|   data: 'Country=Brasil&City=Belo Horizonte',
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `timeout` specifies the number of milliseconds before the request times out.
 | |
|   // If the request takes longer than `timeout`, the request will be aborted.
 | |
|   timeout: 1000, // default is `0` (no timeout)
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `withCredentials` indicates whether or not cross-site Access-Control requests
 | |
|   // should be made using credentials
 | |
|   withCredentials: false, // default
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `adapter` allows custom handling of requests which makes testing easier.
 | |
|   // Return a promise and supply a valid response (see lib/adapters/README.md).
 | |
|   adapter: function (config) {
 | |
|     /* ... */
 | |
|   },
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `auth` indicates that HTTP Basic auth should be used, and supplies credentials.
 | |
|   // This will set an `Authorization` header, overwriting any existing
 | |
|   // `Authorization` custom headers you have set using `headers`.
 | |
|   // Please note that only HTTP Basic auth is configurable through this parameter.
 | |
|   // For Bearer tokens and such, use `Authorization` custom headers instead.
 | |
|   auth: {

|     username: 'janedoe',
 | |
|     password: 's00pers3cret'
 | |
|   },
 | |

 | |
|   // `responseType` indicates the type of data that the server will respond with
 | |
|   // options are: 'arraybuffer', 'document', 'json', 'text', 'stream'
 | |

 | |
|   responseType: 'json', // default
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `responseEncoding` indicates encoding to use for decoding responses (Node.js only)
 | |
|   // Note: Ignored for `responseType` of 'stream' or client-side requests
 | |
|   responseEncoding: 'utf8', // default
 | |
| 
 | |

 | |
|   onDownloadProgress: function (progressEvent) {
 | |
|     // Do whatever you want with the native progress event
 | |
|   },
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `maxContentLength` defines the max size of the http response content in bytes allowed in node.js
 | |
|   maxContentLength: 2000,

|   // `validateStatus` defines whether to resolve or reject the promise for a given
 | |
|   // HTTP response status code. If `validateStatus` returns `true` (or is set to `null`

 | |
|   httpAgent: new http.Agent({ keepAlive: true }),
 | |
|   httpsAgent: new https.Agent({ keepAlive: true }),

 | |
|     clarifyTimeoutError: false,
 | |
|   },
 | |
| 
 | |
|   env: {
 | |
|     // The FormData class to be used to automatically serialize the payload into a FormData object
 | |
|     FormData: window?.FormData || global?.FormData
 | |
|   }
 | |
| }
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Response Schema
 | |
| 
 | |
| The response for a request contains the following information.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| {
 | |
|   // `data` is the response that was provided by the server
 | |
|   data: {},
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `status` is the HTTP status code from the server response
 | |
|   status: 200,
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `statusText` is the HTTP status message from the server response
 | |
|   statusText: 'OK',
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `headers` the HTTP headers that the server responded with
 | |
|   // All header names are lower cased and can be accessed using the bracket notation.
 | |
|   // Example: `response.headers['content-type']`
 | |
|   headers: {},
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `config` is the config that was provided to `axios` for the request
 | |
|   config: {},
 | |
| 
 | |
|   // `request` is the request that generated this response
 | |
|   // It is the last ClientRequest instance in node.js (in redirects)
 | |
|   // and an XMLHttpRequest instance in the browser
 | |
|   request: {}
 | |
| }
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| When using `then`, you will receive the response as follows:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| axios.get('/user/12345')
 | |
|   .then(function (response) {
 | |
|     console.log(response.data);
 | |
|     console.log(response.status);
 | |
|     console.log(response.statusText);
 | |
|     console.log(response.headers);
 | |
|     console.log(response.config);
 | |
|   });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| When using `catch`, or passing a [rejection callback](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise/then) as second parameter of `then`, the response will be available through the `error` object as explained in the [Handling Errors](#handling-errors) section.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Config Defaults
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can specify config defaults that will be applied to every request.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Global axios defaults
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| axios.defaults.baseURL = 'https://api.example.com';
 | |
| 
 | |
| // Important: If axios is used with multiple domains, the AUTH_TOKEN will be sent to all of them.
 | |
| // See below for an example using Custom instance defaults instead.
 | |
| axios.defaults.headers.common['Authorization'] = AUTH_TOKEN;
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.defaults.headers.post['Content-Type'] = 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded';
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Custom instance defaults
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| // Set config defaults when creating the instance
 | |
| const instance = axios.create({
 | |
|   baseURL: 'https://api.example.com'
 | |
| });
 | |
| 
 | |
| // Alter defaults after instance has been created
 | |
| instance.defaults.headers.common['Authorization'] = AUTH_TOKEN;
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Config order of precedence
 | |
| 
 | |
| Config will be merged with an order of precedence. The order is library defaults found in [lib/defaults.js](https://github.com/axios/axios/blob/master/lib/defaults.js#L28), then `defaults` property of the instance, and finally `config` argument for the request. The latter will take precedence over the former. Here's an example.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| // Create an instance using the config defaults provided by the library
 | |
| // At this point the timeout config value is `0` as is the default for the library
 | |
| const instance = axios.create();
 | |
| 
 | |
| // Override timeout default for the library
 | |
| // Now all requests using this instance will wait 2.5 seconds before timing out
 | |
| instance.defaults.timeout = 2500;
 | |
| 
 | |
| // Override timeout for this request as it's known to take a long time
 | |
| instance.get('/longRequest', {
 | |
|   timeout: 5000
 | |
| });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Interceptors
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can intercept requests or responses before they are handled by `then` or `catch`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| // Add a request interceptor
 | |
| axios.interceptors.request.use(function (config) {
 | |
|     // Do something before request is sent
 | |
|     return config;
 | |
|   }, function (error) {
 | |
|     // Do something with request error
 | |
|     return Promise.reject(error);
 | |
|   });
 | |
| 
 | |
| // Add a response interceptor
 | |
| axios.interceptors.response.use(function (response) {
 | |
|     // Any status code that lie within the range of 2xx cause this function to trigger
 | |
|     // Do something with response data
 | |
|     return response;
 | |
|   }, function (error) {
 | |
|     // Any status codes that falls outside the range of 2xx cause this function to trigger
 | |
|     // Do something with response error
 | |
|     return Promise.reject(error);
 | |
|   });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you need to remove an interceptor later you can.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const myInterceptor = axios.interceptors.request.use(function () {/*...*/});
 | |
| axios.interceptors.request.eject(myInterceptor);
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can add interceptors to a custom instance of axios.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const instance = axios.create();
 | |
| instance.interceptors.request.use(function () {/*...*/});
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| When you add request interceptors, they are presumed to be asynchronous by default. This can cause a delay
 | |
| in the execution of your axios request when the main thread is blocked (a promise is created under the hood for 
 | |
| the interceptor and your request gets put on the bottom of the call stack). If your request interceptors are synchronous you can add a flag
 | |
| to the options object that will tell axios to run the code synchronously and avoid any delays in request execution.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| axios.interceptors.request.use(function (config) {
 | |
|   config.headers.test = 'I am only a header!';
 | |
|   return config;
 | |
| }, null, { synchronous: true });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| If you want to execute a particular interceptor based on a runtime check, 
 | |
| you can add a `runWhen` function to the options object. The interceptor will not be executed **if and only if** the return
 | |
| of `runWhen` is `false`. The function will be called with the config
 | |
| object (don't forget that you can bind your own arguments to it as well.) This can be handy when you have an
 | |
| asynchronous request interceptor that only needs to run at certain times.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| function onGetCall(config) {
 | |
|   return config.method === 'get';
 | |
| }
 | |
| axios.interceptors.request.use(function (config) {
 | |
|   config.headers.test = 'special get headers';
 | |
|   return config;
 | |
| }, null, { runWhen: onGetCall });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Multiple Interceptors
 | |
| 
 | |
| Given you add multiple response interceptors
 | |
| and when the response was fulfilled
 | |
| - then each interceptor is executed
 | |
| - then they are executed in the order they were added
 | |
| - then only the last interceptor's result is returned
 | |
| - then every interceptor receives the result of it's predecessor
 | |
| - and when the fulfillment-interceptor throws
 | |
|     - then the following fulfillment-interceptor is not called
 | |
|     - then the following rejection-interceptor is called
 | |
|     - once caught, another following fulfill-interceptor is called again (just like in a promise chain).
 | |
|     
 | |
| Read [the interceptor tests](./test/specs/interceptors.spec.js) for seeing all this in code.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Handling Errors
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| axios.get('/user/12345')
 | |
|   .catch(function (error) {
 | |
|     if (error.response) {
 | |
|       // The request was made and the server responded with a status code
 | |
|       // that falls out of the range of 2xx
 | |
|       console.log(error.response.data);
 | |
|       console.log(error.response.status);
 | |
|       console.log(error.response.headers);
 | |
|     } else if (error.request) {
 | |
|       // The request was made but no response was received
 | |
|       // `error.request` is an instance of XMLHttpRequest in the browser and an instance of
 | |
|       // http.ClientRequest in node.js
 | |
|       console.log(error.request);
 | |
|     } else {
 | |
|       // Something happened in setting up the request that triggered an Error
 | |
|       console.log('Error', error.message);
 | |
|     }
 | |
|     console.log(error.config);
 | |
|   });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using the `validateStatus` config option, you can define HTTP code(s) that should throw an error.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| axios.get('/user/12345', {
 | |
|   validateStatus: function (status) {
 | |
|     return status < 500; // Resolve only if the status code is less than 500
 | |
|   }
 | |
| })
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Using `toJSON` you get an object with more information about the HTTP error.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| axios.get('/user/12345')
 | |
|   .catch(function (error) {
 | |
|     console.log(error.toJSON());
 | |
|   });
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Cancellation
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### AbortController
 | |
| 
 | |
| Starting from `v0.22.0` Axios supports AbortController to cancel requests in fetch API way:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const controller = new AbortController();
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.get('/foo/bar', {
 | |
|    signal: controller.signal
 | |
| }).then(function(response) {
 | |
|    //...
 | |
| });
 | |
| // cancel the request
 | |
| controller.abort()
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### CancelToken `👎deprecated`
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can also cancel a request using a *CancelToken*.
 | |
| 
 | |
| > The axios cancel token API is based on the withdrawn [cancelable promises proposal](https://github.com/tc39/proposal-cancelable-promises).
 | |
| 
 | |
| > This API is deprecated since v0.22.0 and shouldn't be used in new projects
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can create a cancel token using the `CancelToken.source` factory as shown below:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const CancelToken = axios.CancelToken;
 | |
| const source = CancelToken.source();
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.get('/user/12345', {
 | |
|   cancelToken: source.token
 | |
| }).catch(function (thrown) {
 | |
|   if (axios.isCancel(thrown)) {
 | |
|     console.log('Request canceled', thrown.message);
 | |
|   } else {
 | |
|     // handle error
 | |
|   }
 | |
| });
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.post('/user/12345', {
 | |
|   name: 'new name'
 | |
| }, {
 | |
|   cancelToken: source.token
 | |
| })
 | |
| 
 | |
| // cancel the request (the message parameter is optional)
 | |
| source.cancel('Operation canceled by the user.');
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can also create a cancel token by passing an executor function to the `CancelToken` constructor:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const CancelToken = axios.CancelToken;
 | |
| let cancel;
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.get('/user/12345', {
 | |
|   cancelToken: new CancelToken(function executor(c) {
 | |
|     // An executor function receives a cancel function as a parameter
 | |
|     cancel = c;
 | |
|   })
 | |
| });
 | |
| 
 | |
| // cancel the request
 | |
| cancel();
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Note: you can cancel several requests with the same cancel token/abort controller.
 | |
| > If a cancellation token is already cancelled at the moment of starting an Axios request, then the request is cancelled immediately, without any attempts to make real request.
 | |
| 
 | |
| > During the transition period, you can use both cancellation APIs, even for the same request:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Using application/x-www-form-urlencoded format
 | |
| 
 | |
| By default, axios serializes JavaScript objects to `JSON`. To send data in the `application/x-www-form-urlencoded` format instead, you can use one of the following options.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Browser
 | |
| 
 | |
| In a browser, you can use the [`URLSearchParams`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URLSearchParams) API as follows:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const params = new URLSearchParams();
 | |
| params.append('param1', 'value1');
 | |
| params.append('param2', 'value2');
 | |
| axios.post('/foo', params);
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| > Note that `URLSearchParams` is not supported by all browsers (see [caniuse.com](http://www.caniuse.com/#feat=urlsearchparams)), but there is a [polyfill](https://github.com/WebReflection/url-search-params) available (make sure to polyfill the global environment).
 | |
| 
 | |
| Alternatively, you can encode data using the [`qs`](https://github.com/ljharb/qs) library:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const qs = require('qs');
 | |
| axios.post('/foo', qs.stringify({ 'bar': 123 }));
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Or in another way (ES6),
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| import qs from 'qs';
 | |
| const data = { 'bar': 123 };
 | |
| const options = {
 | |
|   method: 'POST',
 | |
|   headers: { 'content-type': 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' },
 | |
|   data: qs.stringify(data),
 | |
|   url,
 | |
| };
 | |
| axios(options);
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### Node.js
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### Query string
 | |
| 
 | |
| In node.js, you can use the [`querystring`](https://nodejs.org/api/querystring.html) module as follows:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const querystring = require('querystring');
 | |
| axios.post('http://something.com/', querystring.stringify({ foo: 'bar' }));
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| or ['URLSearchParams'](https://nodejs.org/api/url.html#url_class_urlsearchparams) from ['url module'](https://nodejs.org/api/url.html) as follows:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const url = require('url');
 | |
| const params = new url.URLSearchParams({ foo: 'bar' });
 | |
| axios.post('http://something.com/', params.toString());
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can also use the [`qs`](https://github.com/ljharb/qs) library.
 | |
| 
 | |
| > NOTE: 
 | |
| > The `qs` library is preferable if you need to stringify nested objects, as the `querystring` method has [known issues](https://github.com/nodejs/node-v0.x-archive/issues/1665) with that use case.
 | |
| 
 | |
| #### Form data
 | |
| 
 | |
| ##### 🆕 Automatic serialization
 | |
| 
 | |
| Starting from `v0.27.0`, Axios supports automatic object serialization to a FormData object if the request `Content-Type` 
 | |
| header is set to `multipart/form-data`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The following request will submit the data in a FormData format (Browser & Node.js):
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| import axios from 'axios';
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.post('https://httpbin.org/post', {x: 1}, {
 | |
|   headers: {
 | |
|     'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
 | |
|   }
 | |
| }).then(({data})=> console.log(data));
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| In the `node.js` build, the ([`form-data`](https://github.com/form-data/form-data)) polyfill is used by default.
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can overload the FormData class by setting the `env.FormData` config variable,
 | |
| but you probably won't need it in most cases:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const axios= require('axios');
 | |
| var FormData = require('form-data');
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.post('https://httpbin.org/post', {x: 1, buf: new Buffer(10)}, {
 | |
|   headers: {
 | |
|     'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
 | |
|   }
 | |
| }).then(({data})=> console.log(data));
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Axios FormData serializer supports some special endings to perform the following operations:
 | |
| 
 | |
| - `{}` - serialize the value with JSON.stringify
 | |
| - `[]` - unwrap the array like object as separate fields with the same key 
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const axios= require('axios');
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.post('https://httpbin.org/post', {
 | |
|   'myObj{}': {x: 1, s: "foo"},
 | |
|   'files[]': document.querySelector('#fileInput').files 
 | |
| }, {
 | |
|   headers: {
 | |
|     'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
 | |
|   }
 | |
| }).then(({data})=> console.log(data));
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| Axios supports the following shortcut methods: `postForm`, `putForm`, `patchForm`
 | |
| which are just the corresponding http methods with a header preset: `Content-Type`: `multipart/form-data`.
 | |
| 
 | |
| FileList object can be passed directly:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| await axios.postForm('https://httpbin.org/post', document.querySelector('#fileInput').files)
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| All files will be sent with the same field names: `files[]`;
 | |
| 
 | |
| ##### Manual FormData passing
 | |
|   
 | |
| In node.js, you can use the [`form-data`](https://github.com/form-data/form-data) library as follows:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const FormData = require('form-data');
 | |
|  
 | |
| const form = new FormData();
 | |
| form.append('my_field', 'my value');
 | |
| form.append('my_buffer', new Buffer(10));
 | |
| form.append('my_file', fs.createReadStream('/foo/bar.jpg'));
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios.post('https://example.com', form)
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Semver
 | |
| 
 | |
| Until axios reaches a `1.0` release, breaking changes will be released with a new minor version. For example `0.5.1`, and `0.5.4` will have the same API, but `0.6.0` will have breaking changes.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Promises
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios depends on a native ES6 Promise implementation to be [supported](http://caniuse.com/promises).
 | |
| If your environment doesn't support ES6 Promises, you can [polyfill](https://github.com/jakearchibald/es6-promise).
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## TypeScript
 | |
| 
 | |
| axios includes [TypeScript](http://typescriptlang.org) definitions and a type guard for axios errors.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```typescript
 | |
| let user: User = null;
 | |
| try {
 | |
|   const { data } = await axios.get('/user?ID=12345');
 | |
|   user = data.userDetails;
 | |
| } catch (error) {
 | |
|   if (axios.isAxiosError(error)) {
 | |
|     handleAxiosError(error);
 | |
|   } else {
 | |
|     handleUnexpectedError(error);
 | |
|   }
 | |
| }
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Online one-click setup
 | |
| 
 | |
| You can use Gitpod an online IDE(which is free for Open Source) for contributing or running the examples online.
