Axios does not support canceling requests at the moment. Please see this issue for details.
UPDATE: Cancellation support was added in axios v0.15.
EDIT: The axios cancel token API is based on the withdrawn cancelable promises proposal.
UPDATE 2022: Starting from v0.22.0 Axios supports AbortController to cancel requests in fetch API way:
Example:
const controller = new AbortController();
axios.get('/foo/bar', {
signal: controller.signal
}).then(function(response) {
//...
});
// cancel the request
controller.abort()
