npm install --save axios-middleware
Here's a simple example of a locale middleware who sets a language header on each AJAX request.
import { HttpMiddleware } from 'axios-middleware';
export default class LocaleMiddleware extends HttpMiddleware {
constructor(i18n) {
super();
this.i18n = i18n;
}
onRequest(config) {
config.headers = {
locale: this.i18n.lang,
...config.headers
};
return config;
}
}
Simplest use-case:
import axios from 'axios';
import { HttpMiddlewareService } from 'axios-middleware';
import i18n from './i18n';
import { LocaleMiddleware, OtherMiddleware } from './middlewares';
// Create a new service instance
const service = new HttpMiddlewareService(axios);
// Then register your middleware instances.
service.register([
new LocaleMiddleware(i18n),
new OtherMiddleware()
]);
// We're good to go!
A common use-case would be to expose an instance of the service which consumes an axios instance configured for an API. It's then possible to register middlewares for this API at different stages of the initialization process of an application.
