axios：未处理的拒绝（TypeError）：无法读取未定义的属性“错误”

Question

I am trying to use axios to make a POST request. Following is my axios function in a file called userFunctions.js.

export const savePost = (postInfo) => {
    return axios
        .post(
            "admin/savepost",
            { first_name: "hello", last_name: "world" },
            {
                headers: {
                    Authorization: `Bearer ${localStorage.usertoken}`,
                },
            }
        )
        .then((response) => {
            console.log(response); //response is able to get printed here
            console.log("axios:: saved post");
        });
};

I'm calling this in another file called card.js shown below:

handleChange(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
        const { name, type, checked } = e.target;
        if (type === "checkbox") {
            this.setState({
                [name]: checked,
            });
            savePost("post 1").then((res) => {
                //response is undefined here!
                console.log(res === undefined); //true

                if (!res.error) {
                    console.log("client: post saved");
                }
            });
        }
    }

and I'm getting the following error:

Unhandled Rejection (TypeError): Cannot read property 'error' of undefined

I don't understand is why the response is able to get printed in the userFunctions.js but is undefined when I call the savePost variable in card.js

It happens because you handle response in the userFunctions.js and do not return it back(ie last then in your promise chain returns undefined). Make following change:

    .then((response) => {
        console.log(response); //response is able to get printed here
        console.log("axios:: saved post");
        return response
    });
