[SOLVED] boot file questions

[ssuess]

After rereading the boot file docs (https://quasar.dev/quasar-cli/boot-files), and looking at my /src/boot folder, I see files that are not in the boot: [] area of quasar.conf.js, but still seem to be working (axios.js among them). Did something change in recent versions and should I make sure any file that is in the boot folder have a corresponding entry in boot: [] area of quasar.conf.js?

Can you post your axios file? Boot files still need to be registered in quasar.conf.js.

@ssuess depends how you are using axios. One boot setting about it, is setting up it’s Vue prototype, so you can use the this.$axios in your sfc’s.

@metalsadman I think that explains a lot. So if that boot file is included in the conf file, I should no longer have to do an import axios from 'axios' in any file I use axios in? (and instead of writing my calls as axios.get I should be able to use this.$axios.get everywhere?)

[s.molinari]

Correct. If you bind axios to Vue’s prototype, that is what is possible in your SFCs.
