How to translate superagent to axios? - axios

Question

I have some upload working for superagent. It involves posting to an api for cloudinary. My question is how do I do the same thing with axios. I'm not sure what superagent.attach and superagent.field relate to in axios.
Basically when I make the post request I need to attach all these fields to the request or else I get bad request and I want to do this in axios not superagent as I am switching over to axios.
Here are all the params:
const image = files[0];
const cloudName = 'tbaustin';
const url = `https://api.cloudinary.com/v1_1/${cloudName}/image/upload`;
const timestamp = Date.now()/1000;
const uploadPreset = 'cnh7rzwp';
const paramsStr = `timestamp=${timestamp}&upload_preset=${uploadPreset}ORor-6scjYwQGpNBvMW2HGMkc8k`;
const signature = sha1(paramsStr);
const params = {
'api_key': '177287448318217',
'timestamp': timestamp,
'upload_preset': uploadPreset,
'signature': signature
}
Here is the superagent post request:
let uploadRequest = superagent.post(url)
uploadRequest.attach('file', image);
Object.keys(params).forEach((key) => {
uploadRequest.field(key, params[key]);
});
uploadRequest.end((err, res) => {
if(err) {
alert(err);
return
}

You would need to use FromData as follows:
var url = `https://api.cloudinary.com/v1_1/${cloudName}/upload`;
var fd = new FormData();
fd.append("upload_preset", unsignedUploadPreset);
fd.append("tags", "browser_upload"); // Optional - add tag for image admin in Cloudinary
fd.append("signature", signature);
fd.append("file", file);
const config = {
headers: { "X-Requested-With": "XMLHttpRequest" },
onUploadProgress: function(progressEvent) {
// Do something with the native progress event
}
};
axios.post(url, fd, config)
.then(function (res) {
// File uploaded successfully
console.log(res.data);
})
.catch(function (err) {
console.error('err', err);
});
