A WebAPI Fetch implementation backed by an Axios client

Axios-Fetch

This library exposes a Fetch WebAPI implementation backed by a Axios client instance. This allows a bridge between projects that have pre-configured Axios clients already to other libraries that require Fetch implementations.

One library that wants a Fetch implementation is the Apollo Link HTTP library. If your project has an existing Axios client configured, then this project can help you use that client in your apollo-link-http instance. Here is some sample code:

const { buildAxiosFetch } = require("@lifeomic/axios-fetch");
const { createHttpLink } = require("apollo-link-http");
const link = createHttpLink({
  uri: "/graphql"
  fetch: buildAxiosFetch(yourAxiosInstance)
});

Transforming requests

It is possible to transform requests before they reach your Axios client by providing an optional argument to buildAxiosFetch. For example, if you wanted a fetch implementation that always set the request timeout to 1 second, you could use code like:

const { buildAxiosFetch } = require("@lifeomic/axios-fetch");
const fetch = buildAxiosFetch(yourAxiosInstance, function (config) {
  config.timeout = 1000;
  return config;
});

Support for IE11

To Support IE11 add following dependencies

 npm install --save isomorphic-fetch
 npm install --save es6-promise

After adding these dependencies import in index.jsx file at top (Need to import before React)

import * as es6Promise from 'es6-promise';
import 'isomorphic-fetch';

es6Promise.polyfill(); // below all import end
