I am currently working on refactoring a next.js App that has a functioning axios call. However, I have encountered an issue with my new function not receiving arguments.
The problem consists of two main components: my next.js page and an external custom module where I write functions to use axios for making calls to the YouTube API to retrieve information.
Here is a snippet of my next.js getStaticProps call:
export async function getStaticProps(context: any) {
const { slug = "" } = context.params;
const film = await client.fetch(query, { slug });
const video = await youtube.grabVideoInfo(film.VideoID);
return {
props: {
film,
video,
},
revalidate: 10,
};
}
Despite trying different approaches to pass in the video ID as an argument, both attempts failed to call from the API due to an invalid video ID error, indicating that it wasn't being passed in correctly.
First attempt:
const grabVideoInfo = async (videoId) => {
const videoGrab = axios.create({
baseURL: "https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?",
params: {
headers: { "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "*" },
part: "snippet",
id: videoId,
key: KEY,
},
});
const query = await videoGrab.get().then(
(response) => {
return response.data.items[0];
},
(error) => {
return error.toJSON();
}
);
return query;
};
Second attempt:
const grabVideoInfo = async (videoId) => {
const videoGrab = axios.create({
baseURL: "https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/videos?",
params: {
headers: { "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "*" },
part: "snippet",
key: KEY,
},
});
const query = await videoGrab.get({ params: { id: videoId } }).then(
(response) => {
return response.data.items[0];
},
(error) => {
return error.toJSON();
}
);
return query;
};
Lastly, here is the fully functioning version that I am attempting to refactor:
export async function getStaticProps(context: any) {
const { slug = "" } = context.params;
const film = await client.fetch(query, { slug });
const KEY = process.env.YOUTUBE_API_KEY;
const conn = axios.create({
baseURL: "https://www.googleapis.com/youtube/v3/",
params: {
headers: { "Access-Control-Allow-Origin": "*" },
part: "snippet",
id: film.videoID,
key: KEY,
},
});
const video = await (await conn.get("videos?")).data.items[0];
return {
props: {
film,
video,
},
revalidate: 10,
};
}
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as I try to solve this issue.
