IMO extremely important rule of thumb for your client side js code is to keep separated the data handling and ui building logic into different funcs, which is also valid for axios data fetching ... in this way your control flow and error handlings will be much more simple and easier to manage, as it could be seen from this ok fetch
and this NOK fetch
<script src="https://unpkg.com/axios/dist/axios.min.js"></script>
<script>
function getUrlParams (){
var url_params = new URLSearchParams();
if( window.location.toString().indexOf("?") != -1) {
var href_part = window.location.search.split('?')[1]
href_part.replace(/([^=&]+)=([^&]*)/g,
function(m, key, value) {
var attr = decodeURIComponent(key)
var val = decodeURIComponent(value)
url_params.append(attr,val);
});
}
// for(var pair of url_params.entries()) { consolas.log(pair[0]+ '->'+ pair[1]); }
return url_params ;
}
function getServerData (url, urlParams ){
if ( typeof url_params == "undefined" ) { urlParams = getUrlParams() }
return axios.get(url , { params: urlParams } )
.then(response => {
return response ;
})
.catch(function(error) {
console.error ( error )
return error.response;
})
}
// Action !!!
getServerData(url , url_params)
.then( response => {
if ( response.status === 204 ) {
var warningMsg = response.statusText
console.warn ( warningMsg )
return
} else if ( response.status === 404 || response.status === 400) {
var errorMsg = response.statusText // + ": " + response.data.msg // this is my api
console.error( errorMsg )
return ;
} else {
var data = response.data
var dataType = (typeof data)
if ( dataType === 'undefined' ) {
var msg = 'unexpected error occurred while fetching data !!!'
// pass here to the ui change method the msg aka
// showMyMsg ( msg , "error")
} else {
var items = data.dat // obs this is my api aka "dat" attribute - that is whatever happens to be your json key to get the data from
// call here the ui building method
// BuildList ( items )
}
return
}
