`$fetch` error handling.

Hi, is this how i'm supposed call POST API call?

try {
    await $fetch("/api/auth/login", {
        method: "POST",
        body: data
    });
} catch (error) {
    console.log(error?.data?.message);
}

try {
    await $fetch("/api/auth/login", {
        method: "POST",
        body: data
    });
} catch (error) {
    console.log(error?.data?.message);
}

import { FetchError } from 'ofetch'

try {
    await $fetch("/api/auth/login", {
        method: "POST",
        body: data
    });
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof FetchError) {
    console.log(error.response?._data)
  }
}

import { FetchError } from 'ofetch'

try {
    await $fetch("/api/auth/login", {
        method: "POST",
        body: data
    });
} catch (error) {
  if (error instanceof FetchError) {
    console.log(error.response?._data)
  }
}

The above is how I'm handling it now too. Made a separate function parseError to do the type checking so I wouldn't have to put the boilerplate there all the time, but this is the recommended way to handle errors in a try/catch regardless of using Nuxt or not. You should double check which fields you want from the object by inspecting the FetchError type (such as statusMessage).
