useFetch
Reactive Fetch API provides the ability to abort requests, intercept requests before they are fired, automatically refetch requests when the url changes, and create your own useFetchwith predefined options.
Usage
Basic Usage
The useFetchfunction can be used by simply providing a url. The url can be either a string or a ref. The data object will contain the result of the request, the error object will contain any errors, and the isFetching object will indicate if the request is loading.
import { useFetch } from '@vueuse/core'
const { isFetching, error, data } = useFetch(url)
Refetching on URL change
Using a ref for the url parameter will allow the useFetchfunction to automatically trigger another request when the url is changed.
const url = ref('https://my-api.com/user/1')
const { data } = useFetch(url, { refetch: true })
url.value = 'https://my-api.com/user/2' // Will trigger another request
Prevent request from firing immediately
Setting the immediate option to false will prevent the request from firing until the execute function is called.
const { execute } = useFetch(url, { immediate: false })
execute()
Aborting a request
A request can be aborted by using the abort function from the useFetchfunction. The canAbort property indicates if the request can be aborted
const { abort, canAbort } = useFetch(url)
setTimeout(() => {
if (canAbort.value)
abort()
}, 100)
Intercepting a request
The beforeFetch option can intercept a request before it is sent and modify the request options and url.
const { data } = useFetch(url, {
async beforeFetch({ url, options, cancel }) {
const myToken = await getMyToken()
if (!myToken)
cancel()
options.headers.Authorization = `Bearer ${myToken}`
return {
options
}
}
})
The afterFetch option can intercept the response data before it is updated.
const { data } = useFetch(url, {
afterFetch(ctx) {
if (ctx.data.title === 'HxH')
ctx.data.title = 'Hunter x Hunter' // Modifies the resposne data
return ctx
},
})
Setting the request method and return type
The request method and return type can be set by adding the appropriate methods to the end of useFetch
// Request will be sent with GET method and data will be parsed as JSON
const { data } = useFetch(url).get().json()
// Request will be sent with POST method and data will be parsed as text
const { data } = useFetch(url).post().text()
// Or set the method using the options
// Request will be sent with GET method and data will be parsed as blob
const { data } = useFetch(url, { method: 'GET' }, { refetch: true }).blob()
Creating a custom instance
The createFetch function will return a useFetch function with whatever pre-configured options that are provided to it. This is useful for interacting with API's throughout an application that uses the same base URL or needs Authorization headers.
const useMyFetch = createFetch({
baseUrl: 'https://my-api.com',
options: {
async beforeFetch({ options }) {
const myToken = await getMyToken()
options.headers.Authorization = `Bearer ${myToken}`
return { options }
},
},
fetchOptions: {
mode: 'cors',
},
})
const { isFetching, error, data } = useMyFetch('users')
Events
The onFetchResposne and onFetchError will fire on fetch request responses and errors respectively.
const { onFetchResponse, onFetchError } = useFetch(url)
onFetchResponse((response) => {
console.log(response.status)
})
onFetchError((error) => {
console.error(error.message)
})
