I'm sending an ajax request with axios with these headers:
window.axios.defaults.headers.common = {
'X-CSRF-TOKEN': window.Laravel.csrfToken,
'X-Requested-With': 'XMLHttpRequest',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
};
But when I say this in a Laravel 5.4 controller:
if (request()->wantsJson()) {
$forums = $this->forumInfo->index(Auth::user());
return response()->json(compact('forums'), 200);
}
return view('home');
The json request is not detected. Also when I look into my headers in chrome dev I can see:
Content-Type:text/html; charset=UTF-8
Why does the header not change approximately to a json content type?
