BaseURL not being used

[tiarebalbi]

Summary

I'm having a problem with the defaults property. When an instance is created I'm setting the baseUrl, checking the defaults value I can see that the baseUrl has been set but once I try to send a single request axios is not using the baseUrl set previously.

Code used to request

const config = {
        timeout: 1500,
        baseUrl: 'https://reqres.in/api',
        ...defaults,
};

const instance = axios.create(config);
try {
        const response = await instance.get('/users?page=2');
        console.log(response);
} catch (e) {
        console.error(e);
}

Note in the end of the response: _currentUrl: 'http:/users?page=2' If I change the get method to have the full URL the request works.

Please, IGNORE THIS ISSUE. Found the problem:

I was setting baseUrl but it should be baseURL.

[Joaaofiilho]

Funny enough, that was my problem too. I just realize the mistake after your comment, thank you Mister @tiarebalbi , you were very useful ahahahahahaha

[bchellingworth]

Im sure this as been changed, I just copied some old code with baseUrl that was working fine and now doesn't work in a more recent project... Ah well.

[lou-bi]

Lifesaver, thanks !

[heikkiket]

Thank you very much! This was the exact same problem for me as well. Google search "axios baseurl not working" was totally worth it :D

[AdamsEric]

Same problem here... thanks!

[thiagomotaz]

dear God, same problem here hahahaha, camelCase sucks

[alex-w0]

How can so many people make the same mistake? I've been looking for over an hour now ^^
Was there a reason to write URL in uppercase?

[kemicofa]

Using baseURL is not working. It keeps sending requests to port 80

[kemicofa]

When I log the instance I'm getting:

defaults: {
        headers: {
          common: [Object],
          delete: {},
          get: {},
          head: {},
          post: [Object],
          put: [Object],
          patch: [Object],
          'Content-Type': 'application/json; charset=utf-8'
        },
        baseURL: 'http://localhost:3000',
        transformRequest: [ [Function: transformRequest] ],
        transformResponse: [ [Function: transformResponse] ],
        timeout: 1000,
        adapter: [Function: xhrAdapter],
        xsrfCookieName: 'XSRF-TOKEN',
        xsrfHeaderName: 'X-XSRF-TOKEN',
        maxContentLength: -1,
        validateStatus: [Function: validateStatus]
      }

For the config.

[determin1st]

well, probably there could be an alias of baseUrl to baseURL

[alex-w0]

@kemicofa Can you also post an example of the request or even better create a small codepen?

[mauchchhash]

Had the same problem. :P
