Usage

import axios from 'axios';
import { cacheAdapterEnhancer, throttleAdapterEnhancer } from 'axios-extensions';

// enhance the original axios adapter with throttle and cache enhancer 
const http = axios.create({
	baseURL: '/',
	headers: { 'Cache-Control': 'no-cache' },
	adapter: throttleAdapterEnhancer(cacheAdapterEnhancer(axios.defaults.adapter, true))
});

Enable Logging

It is highly recommended to enable the request logging recorder in development environment(it is disabled in default).

browser (webpack)

new webpack.DefinePlugin({
  'process.env.LOGGER_LEVEL': JSON.stringify('info')
})

node

// package.json
"scripts": {
	"start": "cross-env LOGGER_LEVEL=info node server.js"
}

API

cacheAdapterEnhancer(adapter, cacheEnabledByDefault = false, enableCacheFlag = 'cache', defaultCache = new LRUCache({ maxAge: FIVE_MINUTES })) : enhancedAdapter

makes axios cacheable

basic usage

import axios from 'axios';
import { cacheAdapterEnhancer } from 'axios-extensions';

const http = axios.create({
	baseURL: '/',
	headers: { 'Cache-Control': 'no-cache' },
	// cache will be enabled by default
	adapter: cacheAdapterEnhancer(axios.defaults.adapter, true)
});

http.get('/users'); // make real http request
http.get('/users'); // use the response from the cache of previous request, without real http request made
http.get('/users', { cache: false }); // disable cache manually and the the real http request invoked

custom cache flag

const http = axios.create({
	baseURL: '/',
	headers: { 'Cache-Control': 'no-cache' },
	// disable the default cache and set the cache flag
	adapter: cacheAdapterEnhancer(axios.defaults.adapter, false, 'useCache')
});

http.get('/users'); // default cache was disabled and then the real http request invoked 
http.get('/users', { useCache: true }); // make the request cacheable(real http request made due to first request invoke)
http.get('/users', { useCache: true }); // use the response cache from previous request

more advanced

Besides configuring the request through the cacheAdapterEnhancer, we can enjoy more advanced features via configuring every individual request.

import axios from 'axios';
import { cacheAdapterEnhancer, Cache } from 'axios-extensions';

const http = axios.create({
	baseURL: '/',
	headers: { 'Cache-Control': 'no-cache' },
	// disable the default cache and set the cache flag
	adapter: cacheAdapterEnhancer(axios.defaults.adapter, false)
});

http.get('/users', { cache: true }); // make the request cacheable(real http request made due to first request invoke)

// define a cache manually
const cacheA = new Cache();
// or a cache-like instance
const cacheB = { get() {/*...*/}, set() {/*...*/}, del() {/*...*/} };

// two actual request will be made due to the different cache 
http.get('/users', { cache: cacheA });
http.get('/users', { cache: cacheB });

// a actual request made and cached due to force update configured
http.get('/users', { cache: cacheA, forceUpdate: true });

throttleAdapterEnhancer(adapter, threshold = 1000, cacheCapacity = 10) : enhancedAdapter

throttle requests most once per threshold milliseconds

import axios from 'axios';
import { throttleAdapterEnhancer } from 'axios-extensions';

const http = axios.create({
	baseURL: '/',
	headers: { 'Cache-Control': 'no-cache' },
	adapter: throttleAdapterEnhancer(axios.defaults.adapter, 2 * 1000)
});

http.get('/users'); // make real http request
http.get('/users'); // responsed from the cache
http.get('/users'); // responsed from the cache

setTimeout(() => {
	http.get('/users'); // after 2s, the real request makes again
}, 2 * 1000);
