I want to do AJAX Request with Axios in Laravel. I did npm install axios --save but i don’t know how to use it. Please help me how can I use axios in my laravel project.

Here’s my ajax-land.blade.php:

<div id="app">
    <ul>
        <li v-for = "skill in skills" v-text = "skill"></li>
    </ul>
</div>
<script src = "https://vuejs.org/js/vue.js"></script>
<script src = "/js/axisa.js"></script>

Here’s my axisa.js:

 new Vue({
    el: '#app',
    data: {
        skills: []
    },
    mounted(){
        axios({
            method: 'get',
            url: '/links'
        })
        .then(response => this.skills = response.data)
    }
});

Here are my routes:

Route::get('/', function () {
    return view('ajax-land');
});

Route::get('/links', function(){
    return ['Google', 'Microsoft', 'Facebook', 'Twitter', 'LinkedIn'];
});

Here’s the bootstrap.js:

window._ = require('lodash');

/**
 * We'll load jQuery and the Bootstrap jQuery plugin which provides support
 * for JavaScript based Bootstrap features such as modals and tabs. This
 * code may be modified to fit the specific needs of your application.
 */

try {
    window.$ = window.jQuery = require('jquery');

    require('bootstrap-sass');
} catch (e) {}

/**
 * We'll load the axios HTTP library which allows us to easily issue requests
 * to our Laravel back-end. This library automatically handles sending the
 * CSRF token as a header based on the value of the "XSRF" token cookie.
 */

window.axios = require('axios');

window.axios.defaults.headers.common['X-Requested-With'] = 'XMLHttpRequest';

/**
 * Next we will register the CSRF Token as a common header with Axios so that
 * all outgoing HTTP requests automatically have it attached. This is just
 * a simple convenience so we don't have to attach every token manually.
 */

let token = document.head.querySelector('meta[name="csrf-token"]');

if (token) {
    window.axios.defaults.headers.common['X-CSRF-TOKEN'] = token.content;
} else {
    console.error('CSRF token not found: https://laravel.com/docs/csrf#csrf-x-csrf-token');
}

/**
 * Echo exposes an expressive API for subscribing to channels and listening
 * for events that are broadcast by Laravel. Echo and event broadcasting
 * allows your team to easily build robust real-time web applications.
 */

// import Echo from 'laravel-echo'

// window.Pusher = require('pusher-js');

// window.Echo = new Echo({
//     broadcaster: 'pusher',
//     key: 'your-pusher-key'
// });

Here’s the app.js:

/**
 * First we will load all of this project's JavaScript dependencies which
 * includes Vue and other libraries. It is a great starting point when
 * building robust, powerful web applications using Vue and Laravel.
 */

require('./bootstrap');

window.Vue = require('vue');

/**
 * Next, we will create a fresh Vue application instance and attach it to
 * the page. Then, you may begin adding components to this application
 * or customize the JavaScript scaffolding to fit your unique needs.
 */

Vue.component('example', require('./components/Example.vue'));

const app = new Vue({
    el: '#app'
});

There were some tutorials to import axios in bootstrap.js by import axios from 'axios'; – and also did window.axios = axios in axisa.js but for some reason it didn’t work. Please help me how can i use axios in Laravel.

  1. Axios is a simple promise based HTTP client. In Laravel, it is on the window object by default, so just use like so:

    GET

    axios.get('/some-path').then(res => {
        console.log(res.data)
    })
    

    POST

    let data = {
        some: "thing"
    }
    axios.post('/some-path', data).then(res => {
        console.log(res.data)
    })
    

    Documentation is pretty good, as always, RTFM.


    EDIT 1

    If you get undefined on the axios object, use

    import axios from 'axios'
    

    at the top of your JS file and if you are entirely missing Axios, npm install axios --save

  2. in your resource/assests/js/app.js

    simple add:
    var axios = require(‘axios’);

    since
    import axios from ‘axios’
    – seems to be depricated
