vue-autorequest v1.1.1

Welcome to Vue-Autorequest

Autorequest is a Vue component plugin to load the component part with initial data. It uses XMLHttpRequest. It is created with Vue on Rails in mind.

vue-autorequest is designed for a single endpoint. And it is probably not for complex components with multiple endpoints.

Lesser axios.get on more component parts

One of autorequest's goals is to reduce the axios.get spinkles and give you a smaller component part. A common axios.get spinkle is like the one below.

mounted: function(){
  axios.get('https://yesno.wtf/api')
  .then(function (res) {
    console.log(res.data)
  })
  .catch(function(err){
    console.log(err)
  })
}

Autorequest allows me to write the same data loading code like this:

//1
data: function(){
  return {
    mounted: { url: 'https://yesno.wtf/api'}
  }
}

Replace mounted with created or updated

At the watch method, receive response or catch error.

//2
watch: {
  onMounted:function(res){
    console.log({res})
  }
}

Replace onMounted() with onCreated or onUpdated()

npm install vue-autorequest
