axios-cache-interceptor

What is axios-cache-interceptor?

The axios-cache-interceptor package is a middleware for Axios that provides caching capabilities. It allows you to cache HTTP requests and responses, reducing the number of network requests and improving performance.

What are axios-cache-interceptor's main functionalities?

Basic Caching

This feature allows you to set up basic caching for your Axios requests. The example demonstrates how to create a cache with a maximum age of 15 minutes and use it with an Axios instance.

const axios = require('axios');
const { setupCache } = require('axios-cache-interceptor');

const cache = setupCache({
  maxAge: 15 * 60 * 1000 // 15 minutes
});

const api = axios.create({
  adapter: cache.adapter
});

api.get('https://api.example.com/data')
  .then(response => console.log(response.data))
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

Custom Cache Key

This feature allows you to define a custom cache key. The example shows how to create a cache key based on the request URL, method, and parameters.

const axios = require('axios');
const { setupCache } = require('axios-cache-interceptor');

const cache = setupCache({
  key: req => req.url + req.method + JSON.stringify(req.params)
});

const api = axios.create({
  adapter: cache.adapter
});

api.get('https://api.example.com/data', { params: { id: 1 } })
  .then(response => console.log(response.data))
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

Cache Invalidation

This feature allows you to manually invalidate the cache for specific requests. The example demonstrates how to invalidate the cache for a specific URL.

const axios = require('axios');
const { setupCache } = require('axios-cache-interceptor');

const cache = setupCache();

const api = axios.create({
  adapter: cache.adapter
});

api.get('https://api.example.com/data')
  .then(response => console.log(response.data))
  .catch(error => console.error(error));

// Invalidate the cache for a specific request
cache.invalidate({ url: 'https://api.example.com/data' });

axios-cache-adapter

axios-cache-adapter is another caching library for Axios. It provides similar functionality to axios-cache-interceptor, allowing you to cache HTTP requests and responses. However, axios-cache-adapter offers more configuration options for cache storage, such as using localStorage or a custom store.

axios-extensions

axios-extensions is a package that extends Axios with additional features, including caching. It provides a simple way to add caching to your Axios requests and supports various cache strategies. Compared to axios-cache-interceptor, axios-extensions offers more flexibility in defining cache strategies and expiration times.

// same object, but with updated typings.
const axios = setupCache(Axios);

const req1 = axios.get('https://api.example.com/');
const req2 = axios.get('https://api.example.com/');

const [res1, res2] = await Promise.all([req1, req2]);

res1.cached; // false
res2.cached; // true
