What are some examples of using asyncData in Nuxt.js?

Can you give me some examples of using asyncData in Nuxt.js?

Sure! In Nuxt.js, asyncData is a method that allows you to fetch data asynchronously before rendering a page. For example, you can use it to fetch user data from an API.

How do I implement asyncData in a page component?

You can implement asyncData by defining it as a method in your page component. It should return a promise that resolves to the data you want to use.

Can you show me a code snippet for that?

Absolutely! Here's a simple example:

export default {
  async asyncData({ params }) {
    const response = await fetch(`https://api.example.com/users/${params.id}`);
    const user = await response.json();
    return { user };
  }
}

What happens if the API call fails?

If the API call fails, you can handle errors by using a try-catch block within asyncData. You can return an error message or redirect the user.
