For example, instead of using
Local CORS Proxy
Simple proxy to bypass CORS issues. This was built as a local dev only solution to enable prototyping against existing APIs without having to worry about CORS.
This module was built to solve the issue of getting this error:
No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:3000' is therefore not allowed access. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disable
Getting Started
npm install -g local-cors-proxy
Simple Example
API endpoint that we want to request that has CORS issues:
https://www.yourdomain.ie/movies/list
Start Proxy:
lcp
Then in your client code, new API endpoint using encodeURIComponent:
http://localhost:8010/https%3A%2F%2Fwww.yourdomain.ie%2Fmovies%2Flist
End result will be a request to https://www.yourdomain.ie/movies/list
without the CORS issues!
Install Locally Alternatively you can install the package locally and add a script to your project:
"scripts": {
"proxy": "lcp"
}
