How do I handle async operations in Vue using Axios?

You can use Axios to make HTTP requests in Vue. First, install Axios and then import it into your component.

Can you show me a simple example of making a GET request?

Sure! Here's a basic example:

import axios from 'axios';

export default {
  data() {
    return {
      info: null
    };
  },
  mounted() {
    axios.get('https://api.example.com/data')
      .then(response => {
        this.info = response.data;
      })
      .catch(error => {
        console.error('There was an error!', error);
      });
  }
};

What about handling errors in the request?

You can use the .catch() method to handle errors. In the example above, I included a catch block to log any errors.

Is there a way to show a loading state while the request is in progress?

Yes! You can set a loading state in your data and update it before and after the request. Here's how:

export default {
  data() {
    return {
      info: null,
      loading: false
    };
  },
  mounted() {
    this.loading = true;
    axios.get('https://api.example.com/data')
      .then(response => {
        this.info = response.data;
      })
      .catch(error => {
        console.error('There was an error!', error);
      })
      .finally(() => {
        this.loading = false;
      });
  }
};
