I am using a package called 'concurrently' to run my client and server at the same time on localhost. Client runs on port 3000 while server runs on port 5000. I have set proxy in the package.json of server in the following manner:
"proxy": "https://localhost:5000"
But when I make a request from client in the following manner:
const config = {
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
};
const res = await axios.post('/api/users', body, config);
It says: POST http://localhost:3000/api/users 404 (Not Found). I don't understand why but despite setting proxy, axios keeps making request to port 3000 instead of port 5000. What is the issue?
I got it working correctly. What I did was:
1) change axios.post('/api/users', body, config); to axios.post('http://localhost:5000/api/users', body, config);
2) Then in the 'users' express route on the server side, add CORS functionality by installing 'cors' npm package, and then adding the following lines:
const router = express.Router();
...
// add these lines
var cors = require('cors');
router.use(cors());
...
router.post('/', async (req, res) => {
...
});
