How can I handle API errors in Nuxt.js?

In Nuxt.js, you can handle API errors by using the asyncData method or the fetch hook. You can catch errors using try-catch blocks.

Can you show me an example of using try-catch in asyncData?

Sure! Here's a simple example:

async asyncData({ $axios }) {
  try {
    const data = await $axios.$get('/api/data');
    return { data };
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('API Error:', error);
    return { error: 'Failed to fetch data' };
  }
}

What about global error handling?

For global error handling, you can use the error method in your Nuxt.js middleware or in the nuxt.config.js file to catch and handle errors globally.

Is there a way to display error messages to users?

Yes, you can use a data property to store the error message and display it in your template. For example, you can bind it to a <div> to show the error to users.
