beforeSend global support async/await

[alvins82]

I am trying to use auth0 spa plugin and one of its methods to get the access-token to put in authorisation header is asynchronous (getTokenSilently). I would like to use that in beforeSend to setup global Authorisation header but far-fetch doesn't support async beforeSend. Any chance that this can be added?

Axious has something similiar - see below.

apiClient.interceptors.request.use(async (config) => {
    const token = await myApp.$auth.getTokenSilently();
    config.headers['Authorization'] = `Bearer ${token}`;
    return config;
}, (error) => {
    return Promise.reject(error);
});

Hey @alvins82, thanks for the suggestion. I'm always happy to improve FarFetch.

This should be no problem. I can change the code to simply detect if the beforeSend() function returns a promise or is async and then await it if so.

Ok, I just added the ability to create an async beforeSend(). I haven't written tests yet for this, along with a few other features and fixes I made previously, but try installing the new alpha release, 1.2.0-1 with npm i @websitebeaver/far-fetch@next. I will add testing in the near future as well, but this should work right now. Please let me know if it doesn't.

Version 2.0.0 is now released. You can use async with beforeSend(), afterSend(), dynamicOptions and errorHandler().
