Suggested approach for PUT/PATCH/POST

[stevewillard]

This package is great - thank you!

Do you have a suggested approach for mutations? Maybe something like usePost or usePut, which might return a function/promise.

Thanks! Haven't thought much about this, but I think an API I would like, rather than introducing new root level exports, is something like this:

const [{ data, loading, error }, triggerRequest] = useAxios(
    'https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/todos/1',
    { skip: true }
  )

....

triggerRequest({ arguments to be merged with the original request configuration })

So the existing API would be unchanged, but we could pass options as a second argument, for instance with a skip (or maybe manual) properties to indicate that the request is not triggered right away but only when the second item of the array of the return value is invoked.

What do you think?

I definitely like the merging of options - I was thinking the same thing!

Not loving the { skip } option, (the name) manual is a bit better, but I like the general idea of what you're saying.

Version 1.1.0 addresses this now. More details in the updated docs.
