A simple project to demonstrate how to refresh tokens for unauthorized requests sent in parallel (especially useful in single page applications))

Axios refresh multiple parallel requests

This project was created due to comments i received from this gist

Installation

Clone the repository

git clone https://github.com/Godofbrowser/axios-refresh-multiple-request.git

Install dependencies

npm i

// or 

yarn

Start the build

npm run dev

// or 

yarn dev

Start the demo api server

npm run serve

// or 

yarn serve

When the index page is loaded, you will notice two alert dialogs. These are from 2 unauthorized request errors as we tried to request the api with invalid token. The script then sends a refresh token request to get new auth token after which the 2 requests that failed initially are then sent again, but this time with a new token gotten from the refresh token request. On success, you will notice the data was received and displayed on the webpage.
