|
||||
|
||||
**CORS Anywhere** is a NodeJS proxy which adds CORS headers to the proxied request.
|
||||
|
||||
The url to proxy is literally taken from the path, validated and proxied. The protocol
|
||||
part of the proxied URI is optional, and defaults to "http". If port 443 is specified,
|
||||
the protocol defaults to "https".
|
||||
|
||||
This package does not put any restrictions on the http methods or headers, except for
|
||||
cookies. Requesting [user credentials](http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/#user-credentials) is disallowed.
|
||||
The app can be configured to require a header for proxying a request, for example to avoid
|
||||
a direct visit from the browser.
|
||||
|
||||
## Example
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
// Listen on a specific host via the HOST environment variable
|
||||
var host = process.env.HOST || '0.0.0.0';
|
||||
// Listen on a specific port via the PORT environment variable
|
||||
var port = process.env.PORT || 8080;
|
||||
|
||||
var cors_proxy = require('cors-anywhere');
|
||||
cors_proxy.createServer({
|
||||
originWhitelist: [], // Allow all origins
|
||||
requireHeader: ['origin', 'x-requested-with'],
|
||||
removeHeaders: ['cookie', 'cookie2']
|
||||
}).listen(port, host, function() {
|
||||
console.log('Running CORS Anywhere on ' + host + ':' + port);
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Request examples:
|
||||
|
||||
* `http://localhost:8080/http://google.com/` - Google.com with CORS headers
|
||||
* `http://localhost:8080/google.com` - Same as previous.
|
||||
* `http://localhost:8080/google.com:443` - Proxies `https://google.com/`
|
||||
* `http://localhost:8080/` - Shows usage text, as defined in `libs/help.txt`
|
||||
* `http://localhost:8080/favicon.ico` - Replies 404 Not found
|
||||
|
||||
Live examples:

||||

|
||||
* https://robwu.nl/cors-anywhere.html - This demo shows how to use the API.
|
||||
|
||||
## Documentation
|
||||
|
||||
### Client
|
||||
|
||||
To use the API, just prefix the URL with the API URL. Take a look at [demo.html](demo.html) for an example.
|
||||
A concise summary of the documentation is provided at [lib/help.txt](lib/help.txt).
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to automatically enable cross-domain requests when needed, use the following snippet:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
(function() {
|
||||
var cors_api_host = 'cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com';
|
||||
var cors_api_url = 'https://' + cors_api_host + '/';
|
||||
var slice = [].slice;
|
||||
var origin = window.location.protocol + '//' + window.location.host;
|
||||
var open = XMLHttpRequest.prototype.open;
|
||||
XMLHttpRequest.prototype.open = function() {
|
||||
var args = slice.call(arguments);
|
||||
var targetOrigin = /^https?:\/\/([^\/]+)/i.exec(args[1]);
|
||||
if (targetOrigin && targetOrigin[0].toLowerCase() !== origin &&
|
||||
targetOrigin[1] !== cors_api_host) {
|
||||
args[1] = cors_api_url + args[1];
|
||||
}
|
||||
return open.apply(this, args);
|
||||
};
|
||||
})();
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using jQuery, you can also use the following code **instead of** the previous one:
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
jQuery.ajaxPrefilter(function(options) {
|
||||
if (options.crossDomain && jQuery.support.cors) {
|
||||
options.url = 'https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com/' + options.url;
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Server
|
||||
|
||||
The module exports `createServer(options)`, which creates a server that handles
|
||||
proxy requests. The following options are supported:
|
||||
|
||||
* function `getProxyForUrl` - If set, specifies which intermediate proxy to use for a given URL.
|
||||
If the return value is void, a direct request is sent. The default implementation is
|
||||
[`proxy-from-env`](https://github.com/Rob--W/proxy-from-env), which respects the standard proxy
|
||||
environment variables (e.g. `https_proxy`, `no_proxy`, etc.).
|
||||
* array of strings `originBlacklist` - If set, requests whose origin is listed are blocked.
|
||||
Example: `['https://bad.example.com', 'http://bad.example.com']`
|
||||
* array of strings `originWhitelist` - If set, requests whose origin is not listed are blocked.
|
||||
If this list is empty, all origins are allowed.
|
||||
Example: `['https://good.example.com', 'http://good.example.com']`
|
||||
* function `checkRateLimit` - If set, it is called with the origin (string) of the request. If this
|
||||
function returns a non-empty string, the request is rejected and the string is send to the client.
|
||||
* boolean `redirectSameOrigin` - If true, requests to URLs from the same origin will not be proxied but redirected.
|
||||
The primary purpose for this option is to save server resources by delegating the request to the client
|
||||
(since same-origin requests should always succeed, even without proxying).
|
||||
* array of strings `requireHeader` - If set, the request must include this header or the API will refuse to proxy.
|
||||
Recommended if you want to prevent users from using the proxy for normal browsing.
|
||||
Example: `['Origin', 'X-Requested-With']`.
|
||||
* array of lowercase strings `removeHeaders` - Exclude certain headers from being included in the request.
|
||||
Example: `["cookie"]`
|
||||
* dictionary of lowercase strings `setHeaders` - Set headers for the request (overwrites existing ones).
|
||||
Example: `{"x-powered-by": "CORS Anywhere"}`
|
||||
* number `corsMaxAge` - If set, an Access-Control-Max-Age request header with this value (in seconds) will be added.
|
||||
Example: `600` - Allow CORS preflight request to be cached by the browser for 10 minutes.
|
||||
* string `helpFile` - Set the help file (shown at the homepage).
|
||||
Example: `"myCustomHelpText.txt"`
|
||||
|
||||
For advanced users, the following options are also provided.
|
||||
|
||||
* `httpProxyOptions` - Under the hood, [http-proxy](https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy)
|
||||
is used to proxy requests. Use this option if you really need to pass options
|
||||
to http-proxy. The documentation for these options can be found [here](https://github.com/nodejitsu/node-http-proxy#options).
|
||||
* `httpsOptions` - If set, a `https.Server` will be created. The given options are passed to the
|
||||
[`https.createServer`](https://nodejs.org/api/https.html#https_https_createserver_options_requestlistener) method.
|
||||
|
||||
For even more advanced usage (building upon CORS Anywhere),
|
||||
see the sample code in [test/test-examples.js](test/test-examples.js).
|
||||
|
||||
### Demo server
|
||||
|
||||
A public demo of CORS Anywhere is available at https://cors-anywhere.herokuapp.com. This server is
|
||||
only provided so that you can easily and quickly try out CORS Anywhere. To ensure that the service
|
||||
stays available to everyone, the number of requests per period is limited, except for requests from
|
||||
some explicitly whitelisted origins.
|
||||
|
||||
If you expect lots of traffic, please host your own instance of CORS Anywhere, and make sure that
|
||||
the CORS Anywhere server only whitelists your site to prevent others from using your instance of
|
||||
CORS Anywhere as an open proxy.
|
||||
|
||||
For instance, to run a CORS Anywhere server that accepts any request from some example.com sites on
|
||||
port 8080, use:
|
||||
```
|
||||
export PORT=8080
|
||||
export CORSANYWHERE_WHITELIST=https://example.com,http://example.com,http://example.com:8080
|
||||
node server.js
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This application can immediately be run on Heroku, see https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/nodejs
|
||||
for instructions. Note that their [Acceptable Use Policy](https://www.heroku.com/policy/aup) forbids
|
||||
the use of Heroku for operating an open proxy, so make sure that you either enforce a whitelist as
|
||||
shown above, or severly rate-limit the number of requests.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, to blacklist abuse.example.com and rate-limit everything to 50 requests per 3 minutes,
|
||||
except for my.example.com and my2.example.com (which may be unlimited), use:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
export PORT=8080
|
||||
export CORSANYWHERE_BLACKLIST=https://abuse.example.com,http://abuse.example.com
|
||||
export CORSANYWHERE_RATELIMIT='50 3 my.example.com my2.example.com'
|
||||
node server.js
|
||||
```
