[JAVA] [Nuxt / Rails] POST implementation using axios and devise_token_auth

When POSTing using axios and devise_token_auth with Nuxt.js and Ruby on Rails, I got stuck in a simple way, so I will summarize it with a memorandum.

Implementation on the Ruby on Rails side

The settings of devise_token_auth are omitted.

The following URL was helpful, so it may be good to see it.

Since we have introduced FormObject, we will include that as well.

articles_controller.rb

class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
  def create
    @article = ArticleForm.new(article_params).save
    if @article
      #abridgement
    end
  end

  private

  def article_params
    json_request = ActionController::Parameters.new(JSON.parse(request.body.read))
    json_request.permit(
      :title,
      :description,
    ).merge(user_id: current_user.id)
  end
end

articles_form.rb

class ArticleForm
  include ActiveModel::Model
  attr_reader :title, :description

  validates :title, presence: true, length: { maximum: 50 }
  validates :description, length: { maximum: 300 }

  def initialize(article_params)
    @article = article_params
  end

  def save
    return false if valid?
    Article.create(@article)

    true
  end
end

Now you are ready to POST.

Supplement

Since I was supposed to mess with Json when POSTed, I had to write a process to parse Json. (I was really into it here.)

def article_params
  json_request = ActionController::Parameters.new(JSON.parse(request.body.read))
  json_request.permit(
    :title,
    :description,
  ).merge(user_id: current_user.id)
end

I've saved it in the following article (or rather, copy the Parse part of Json), so I'll post it.

Implementation on the Nuxt.js side

I will omit the implementation written in Component and cut out only the implementation of the POSTed part with axios that is done in Vuex.

article.js

export const actions = {
  async postArticle({ dispatch }, article) {
    await this.$axios
      .post('/articles', article, {
        headers: {
          'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data', //For the assumption of sending thumbnail images
          'access-token': this.state.user.userToken.accessToken,
          client: this.state.user.userToken.client,
          uid: this.state.user.userToken.uid,
        },
      })
      .then(() => dispatch('getArticleList'))
      .catch((error) => console.log(error))
  },
}

I packed the token of devise_token_auth in a cookie and wrote it to Vuex at the time of nuxtServerInit, so that the Token can be inserted in the header at the time of request.

By the way, although it is not Ruby on Rails, it has a similar implementation when using GO echo, and the memorandum is summarized below.
