How to download image using vue js and laravel - php

Question

I have a hyperlink button on click of this, i want to fetch image from database and get it downloaded on user side with use of laravel and vue js. Below is my code for script file
getImage: function() {
axios.get('/getImage/' + this.form.cashout_id )
.then(function (r)
{
const url = window.URL.createObjectURL(new Blob([r.data]));
const link = document.createElement('a');
link.href = url;
link.setAttribute('download', 'file.'+r.headers.ext); //or any other extension
document.body.appendChild(link);
link.click();
//hide loader
i.loader = false
})
.catch(function (error) {
alert('Error');
});
},
and now this is my controller code where image is being fetched.
public function getimage($id)
{
$cashout = CashOutDetail::findorfail($id);
$storage_date = Carbon::parse($cashout['recorded_date']);
return response()->download(
storage_path('app/cashoutdetails/'. $storage_date->year .'/' . $storage_date->format('M') . '/'. $cashout->bank_receipt),
'filename.jpg',
['Content-Type' => 'image/jpg']
);
}
Issue is that my image is being fetched and displayed in console window but unable to download. Can anybody help?

You should try:
axios({
method: 'GET',
url: '/getImage/123.jpg',
responseType: 'blob', // <-<<<<<<<<<<
}).then((response) => {
const url = window.URL.createObjectURL(new Blob([response.data]));
const link = document.createElement('a');
link.href = url;
link.setAttribute('download', '123.jpg');
document.body.appendChild(link);
link.click();
});
