jwt-rest-api-client

library0.1.25jsnpmunverified

Promise-based HTTP client for browser and Node.js built on top of axios, focusing on JWT token lifecycle management. Version 0.1.25 provides an ApiClient class that extends axios with automatic token refresh, request deduplication, and Vue/Nuxt plugins. Unlike raw axios, it handles token storage, refresh logic, and concurrent request queuing out of the box.

Verified usage

Verified import paths — ran on the pinned version, not inferred.

ApiClient

✓ import { ApiClient } from 'jwt-rest-api-client'

✗ const { ApiClient } = require('jwt-rest-api-client')

ESM is supported; CommonJS require may work but is not officially documented.

Vue3Plugin

✓ import { Vue3Plugin } from 'jwt-rest-api-client/src/plugins'

✗ import { Vue3Plugin } from 'jwt-rest-api-client/plugins'

Vue3Plugin is in src/plugins, not root.

ApiClient (default import)

✓ import ApiClient from 'jwt-rest-api-client'

✗ import { default as ApiClient } from 'jwt-rest-api-client'

The package exports both named and default exports.

Creates an ApiClient instance with base URL and token refresh endpoint, then performs a GET request with async/await and error handling.

import { ApiClient } from 'jwt-rest-api-client'; const apiClient = new ApiClient({ baseURL: 'https://api.example.com/', tokenRefreshEndpoint: '/auth/refresh', }); async function fetchData() { try { const response = await apiClient.get('/users', { headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer ' + process.env.TOKEN ?? '' } }); console.log(response.data); } catch (error) { console.error(error); } }

Debug

Known issues

gotchaToken storage relies on localStorage by default; not secure for sensitive apps.

fix

Implement a custom token storage adapter (e.g., using httpOnly cookies).

affects: >=0.1.0

gotchaVue3Plugin path is `jwt-rest-api-client/src/plugins`; using `jwt-rest-api-client/plugins` will result in module not found.

fix

Import from 'jwt-rest-api-client/src/plugins'.

affects: >=0.1.0

deprecatedThe package does not provide a React plugin as stated in README (marked TODO).

fix

Manually integrate ApiClient with React using hooks.

affects: >=0.1.0

gotchaRequest deduplication may cache failed requests if not configured properly.

fix

Set `deduplicate: false` in config or handle errors to invalidate cache.

affects: >=0.1.0

Errors

Common errors & fixes

Cannot find module 'jwt-rest-api-client/src/plugins'

Vue3Plugin import path is incorrect

fix

Use correct path: import { Vue3Plugin } from 'jwt-rest-api-client/src/plugins'

TypeError: apiClient.get is not a function

Forgot to instantiate ApiClient with 'new'

fix

const apiClient = new ApiClient({...})

Token refresh loop: infinite requests to /auth/refresh

Refresh endpoint returns invalid token or fails to update stored token

fix

Ensure refresh endpoint returns a new token and update the token storage correctly
