README

Library and middleware enabling cross-origin resource sharing for your http-{foundation,kernel} using application. It attempts to implement the W3C Recommendation for cross-origin resource sharing.

Build status: 👁 .github/workflows/run-tests.yml

Installation

Require asm89/stack-cors using composer.

Usage

This package can be used as a library or as stack middleware.

Options

Option Description Default value
allowedMethods Matches the request method. []
allowedOrigins Matches the request origin. []
allowedOriginsPatterns Matches the request origin with preg_match. []
allowedHeaders Sets the Access-Control-Allow-Headers response header. []
exposedHeaders Sets the Access-Control-Expose-Headers response header. false
maxAge Sets the Access-Control-Max-Age response header.
Set to null to omit the header/use browser default.
0
supportsCredentials Sets the Access-Control-Allow-Credentials header. false

The allowedMethods and allowedHeaders options are case-insensitive.

You don't need to provide both allowedOrigins and allowedOriginsPatterns. If one of the strings passed matches, it is considered a valid origin.

If ['*'] is provided to allowedMethods, allowedOrigins or allowedHeaders all methods / origins / headers are allowed.

If supportsCredentials is true, you must explicitly set allowedHeaders for any headers which are not CORS safelisted.

Example: using the library

<?php

use Asm89\Stack\CorsService;

$cors = new CorsService([
 'allowedHeaders' => ['x-allowed-header', 'x-other-allowed-header'],
 'allowedMethods' => ['DELETE', 'GET', 'POST', 'PUT'],
 'allowedOrigins' => ['http://localhost'],
 'allowedOriginsPatterns' => ['/localhost:\d/'],
 'exposedHeaders' => false,
 'maxAge' => 600,
 'supportsCredentials' => true,
]);

$cors->addActualRequestHeaders(Response $response, $origin);
$cors->handlePreflightRequest(Request $request);
$cors->isActualRequestAllowed(Request $request);
$cors->isCorsRequest(Request $request);
$cors->isPreflightRequest(Request $request);

Example: using the stack middleware

<?php

use Asm89\Stack\Cors;

$app = new Cors($app, [
 // you can use ['*'] to allow any headers
 'allowedHeaders' => ['x-allowed-header', 'x-other-allowed-header'],
 // you can use ['*'] to allow any methods
 'allowedMethods' => ['DELETE', 'GET', 'POST', 'PUT'],
 // you can use ['*'] to allow requests from any origin
 'allowedOrigins' => ['localhost'],
 // you can enter regexes that are matched to the origin request header
 'allowedOriginsPatterns' => ['/localhost:\d/'],
 'exposedHeaders' => false,
 'maxAge' => 600,
 'supportsCredentials' => false,
]);
