can somebody explain to me why when I am using fetch and accessed my nodejs api - it is authorized but when I tried using axios to access my api - it is unauthorized.
This is the code I am using in fetch (It came from tutorial: https://medium.com/@alexanderleon/implement-social-authentication-with-react-restful-api-9b44f4714fa) Bec I am studying his way of authenticating using passport-facebook-token.
(client -->(login fbsdk)--> fb --> (access token)--> client -->(pass access token)--> nodejs api --> (get credentials) --> passport-fb-token --> (send credentials) --> nodejs api --> (credentials)--> client)
const tokenBlob = new Blob([JSON.stringify({access_token: response.accessToken}, null, 2)], {type : 'application/json'});
const options = {
method: 'POST',
body: tokenBlob,
mode: 'cors',
cache: 'default'
};
fetch('http://localhost:4000/api/v1/auth/facebook', options).then(r => {
const token = r.headers.get('x-auth-token');
r.json().then(user => {
if (token) {
this.setState({isAuthenticated: true, user, token})
}
});
})
This is the code of my axios
axios({
method: 'post',
url: 'http://localhost:4000/api/v1/auth/facebook',
headers: {
'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*',
},
data: {
access_token: response.access_token
}
})
.then((res) => console.log(res))
.catch((err) => console.log(err));
You should configure axios to use your token in one central place. For example
export const configureAxios = (token) => {
axios.interceptors.request.use(req => {
// don't give our token to non-our servers
if (isDomesticRequest(req.url)) {
req.headers.Authorization = `Bearer ${token}`;
}
return req;
});
}
