Nuxt.js: Nuxt.js "self-signed cretificate error" when backend is on https

Steps to reproduce

My backend (API endpoints) is running on https://127.0.0.1:8000/api. When that is the case, Nuxt.js is giving the following error:

self signed certificate                                                                                                                                                                                                               18:37:18

  at TLSSocket.onConnectSecure (_tls_wrap.js:1049:34)
  at TLSSocket.emit (events.js:182:13)
  at TLSSocket.EventEmitter.emit (domain.js:442:20)
  at TLSSocket._finishInit (_tls_wrap.js:631:8)

What's the solution to this? I've seen threads that suggest running Nuxt.js in https mode as well, but all the solutions to do that don't work.

What is expected ?

Nuxt.js should provide a simple way to run nuxt in HTTPS

What is actually happening?

It doesn't

Create file

plugins/axios.js

~~~
import https from 'https';

export default function ({ $axios }) {
$axios.defaults.httpsAgent = new https.Agent({ rejectUnauthorized: false });
}
~~~

Update nuxt.config.js

~
plugins: [
'@/plugins/axios',
],
~

This should fix the issue
