Vuex action "not a function" inside Nuxt fetch - vue.js

I have just introduced error handling to one of my Nuxt pages and apparently the action mapped and called inside fetch raises a not a function error. If the try/catch block isn't there it works as expected and there's no error at all.
Here is my component stripped to the essential parts:
export default {
name: 'ViewArticle',
async fetch ({ error }) {
try {
await this.fetchArticle({ articleSlug: this.articleSlug })
} catch (err) {
error({ statusCode: 404, message: 'May the force be with you' })
}
},
computed: {
...mapGetters({
article: 'article/single'
}),
articleSlug () {
return this.$route.params.articleSlug
}
},
methods: {
...mapActions({
fetchArticle: 'article/fetchOne'
})
}
}
I am assuming that somehow mapActions only gets executed later in the spiel, but can't figure out how to prevent the error. This way, basically every time I load the page it gets immediately redirected to the error page.
The error message I'm getting is the following. Obviously fetchArticle is a function, and unless it's inside the try/catch block, it works as expected.
this.fetchArticle is not a function 03:30:51
at Object.fetch (52.js:32:18)
at server.js:2881:39
at Array.map (<anonymous>)
at module.exports../.nuxt/server.js.__webpack_exports__.default (server.js:2864:51)

Fetch provides the context as argument.
fetch(context)
Inside the context we can find our store. Here you can take a look what context contains: https://nuxtjs.org/api/context
fetch(context) {
let store = context.store;
}
People like to destructure it
fetch({ store }) {}
Your code should look like this:
async fetch ({ error, store }) {
try {
await store.dispatch('article/fetchOne', { articleSlug: this.articleSlug })
} catch (err) {
error({ statusCode: 404, message: 'May the force be with you' })
}
},
Fetch gets executed on the server side, thats why you get is not an function error. Its undefined
... fetch is called on server-side...

Use async fetch({store})
async fetch ({ error, store }) {
try {
await store.dispatch( 'article/fetchOne' , { articleSlug: this.articleSlug })
} catch (err) {
error({ statusCode: 404, message: 'May the force be with you' })
}

Calling methods inside beforeRouteEnter NProgress

I am trying to call an API before navigating to the route. The problem is that if I try to call axios call inside beforeRouteEnter it is working fine for example:
{
beforeRouteEnter(routeTo, routeFrom, next) {
NProgress.start()
axios.get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts').then((res) => {
next((vm) => {
vm.data = res.data
})
NProgress.done()
})
},
}
But when I try to call an API from methods it's navigating to the route before resolving an API and also NProgress bar is also completing before resolving a call.
{
beforeRouteEnter(routeTo, routeFrom, next) {
NProgress.start()
next((vm) => {
vm.index()
NProgress.done()
})
},
methods: {
index() {
axios
.get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts')
.then((res) => {
console.log(res.data)
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log(error)
})
},
},
}
Can anyone guide me what may be wrong?
In your first example, you set the progress bar, then you call the API with Axios and with .then you chain a function after the call. This means the function will wait until the promise is resolved or rejected, before continuing. Only when the axios call is finished successfully, the next function is executed in which you set the data and stop the progress bar. You also should use .catch for if the promises rejects.
Now in your second example, you do not use promises in beforeRouteEnter. Which basically means that all lines are executed immediately. So you call vm.index() and without waiting for the axios call to finish the next line, NProgress.done() will be executed. Although there are several ways to solve this my preference is use async/await, which is just a cleaner way to use promisses and chaining.
In your case I think this would work:
beforeRouteEnter(routeTo, routeFrom, next) {
NProgress.start();
await vm.index();
NProgress.done();
next();
});
}
And the method:
methods: {
async index () {
try {
const response = await axios.get('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts');
console.log(response);
} catch (error) {
console.log(error);
}
}
}
Since this is only a part of your component I cannot test it, but I think you get the idea.

A method not working in Vue.js and can't figure out what the problem is

From the code below, I'm sending email using EmailJs library and the alert method get's executed after submitting but the change method doesn't. What I'm I missing?
Error message on the console is
Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read property 'change' of undefined
at app.js:2755
My Script
<script>
import emailjs from "emailjs-com";
export default {
data() {
return {
flash: false,
};
},
methods: {
sendEmail: (e) => {
emailjs
.sendForm(
"service_k9mhh",
"template_epghgfh",
e.target,
"user_w9U76tg77yhcggh"
)
.then(
(result) => {
console.log("SUCCESS!", result.status, result.text);
alert("Message Sent Successfully")
this.change();
},
(error) => {
console.log("FAILED...", error);
}
);
// Reset form field
},
change(){
this.flash = true;
}
},
};
</script>
Without arrow functions as shown below, It still throws the same error.
methods: {
sendEmail: function (e) {
emailjs
.sendForm(
"service_",
"template_",
e.target,
"user_"
)
.then(
function (result) {
console.log("SUCCESS!", result.status, result.text);
this.change();
},
function (error) {
console.log("FAILED...", error);
}
);
},
change: function () {
this.flash = true;
}
The problem is that in arrow functions this does not refer to the Vue instance so this.change is not defined there.
Read this:
https://v2.vuejs.org/v2/guide/instance.html#Data-and-Methods
Okay so you and eldo were both half right. You need to use a regular function syntax when declaring a method, and an arrow function in any nested .then's.
Using an arrow function in your then and catch handler's ensures that 'this' remains a reference to the Vue instance.
Your method wants to look like this:
sendEmail(e) {
emailjs
.sendForm("service_", "template_", e.target, "user_")
.then((result) => {
console.log("SUCCESS!", result.status, result.text);
this.change();
})
.catch((error) => {
console.log("FAILED...", error);
});
},

Vue Router beforeRouteEnter API call response not 'working'

I cannot see why the function is not returning its call back correctly.
I have a list of vehicle on one route and then another route to display that vehicles resource.
This is what I have in my Single file component for the single vehicle resource:
export default {
data() {
return {
vehicle: null,
error: null
}
},
created() {
},
beforeRouteEnter(to, from, next) {
function getVehicle(id) {
console.log('called');
return axios.get(`/api/v1/vehicles/${id}`);
}
getVehicle(to.params.id, (err, vehicle) => {
console.log('response');
next(vm => vm.setData(err, vehicle))
});
},
methods: {
setData (err, vehicle) {
if (err) {
this.error = err.toString();
} else {
this.vehicle = vehicle;
}
}
}
}
This issue is that when clicking a vehicle link, the API call is correctly made and returning a valid response but yet the next() method isn't called and the console log for 'response' isn't shown neither but the 'called' one is.
Not sure on the logic behind it, but had to use .then() for my getVehicle response before it would work. So changed to:
getVehicle(to.params.id).then( response => {
next( vm =>
vm.setData(response)
);
});
I'm not sure it will work with a function inside the beforeRouteEnter guard. Instead try call the axios get method like
let data = axios.get('/api/v1/vehicles/${to.params.id})
next(vm.setData(err, data))
This should work

Vue: Unhandled promise rejection Error: Request failed with status code 404?

My API url is http://localhost:5000/api/user/list, data shows as:
[{"Id":1,"name":"Michael","pwd":"123456","age":0,"birth":"2018-01-05","addr":"''"},{"Id":2,"name":"Jack","pwd":"123512616","age":0,"birth":"2018-01-05","addr":"''"}]
User.vue
import axios from 'axios';
export default {
data() {
return {
filters: {
name: ''
},
loading: false,
users: [
]
}
},
methods: {
getUser: function () {
axios.get('http://localhost:5000/api/user/list', function (data) {
this.$set('users', data);
})
}
},
mounted() {
this.getUser();
}
});
The error is :
Unhandled promise rejection Error: Request failed with status code 404(…)
How can I fix it?
You should register a handler for your axios request.
Currently you are using settings argument as a handler.
axios.get('http://localhost:5000/api/user/list').then(function (response) {
// this is your handler.
})
Btw, make sure you are not requesting via CORS.
In my case there was a spelling mistake in URL string. It is fixed after that correction.

How Can I pass params with an API client to vue-head?

I am passing params from my API to vue-head but every time I do that it send me undefined in the head this is the code:
export default {
data: () => ({
errors: [],
programs: [],
}),
methods: {
getProgram() {
this.api.http.get(`videos/program/${this.programSlug}`)
.then(response => {
this.programs = response.data
})
.catch(error => {
this.errors = error
});
}
},
head: {
title: function() {
return {
inner: this.programs.name,
separator: '|',
complement: 'Canal 10'
};
}
}
}
any idea what I am doing wrong with my code??
First verify you are fetching the information correctly. Use console log and go to network tab and verify you are fetching the data correct, you might have to comment out vue-head. But what I think is that the problem might be due to vue-head rendering before the api call finishes then no data is being passed.
If you are using vue-router this can be easily solved with beforeRouteEnter() hook. But if not! apparently vue-head has an event that you can emit to update the component after render.
I haven't tried this but it should work. you can add the function below to your methods and call it after the promise is resolved i.e in the then closure.
methods: {
getProgram() {
this.api.http.get(`videos/program/${this.programSlug}`)
.then(response => {
this.programs = response.data
this.$emit('updateHead')
})
.catch(error => {
this.errors = error
});
}
}
