CORS gin's middleware

Gin middleware/handler to enable CORS support.

Usage

Start using it

Download and install it:

$ go get github.com/gin-contrib/cors

Import it in your code:

import "github.com/gin-contrib/cors"

Canonical example:

package main

import (
	"time"

	"github.com/gin-contrib/cors"
	"github.com/gin-gonic/gin"
)

func main() {
	router := gin.Default()
	// CORS for https://foo.com and https://github.com origins, allowing:
	// - PUT and PATCH methods
	// - Origin header
	// - Credentials share
	// - Preflight requests cached for 12 hours
	router.Use(cors.New(cors.Config{
		AllowOrigins:     []string{"https://foo.com"},
		AllowMethods:     []string{"PUT", "PATCH"},
		AllowHeaders:     []string{"Origin"},
		ExposeHeaders:    []string{"Content-Length"},
		AllowCredentials: true,
		AllowOriginFunc: func(origin string) bool {
			return origin == "https://github.com"
		},
		MaxAge: 12 * time.Hour,
	}))
	router.Run()
}

Using DefaultConfig as start point

func main() {
	router := gin.Default()
	// - No origin allowed by default
	// - GET,POST, PUT, HEAD methods
	// - Credentials share disabled
	// - Preflight requests cached for 12 hours
	config := cors.DefaultConfig()
	config.AllowOrigins = []string{"http://google.com"}
	// config.AllowOrigins == []string{"http://google.com", "http://facebook.com"}

	router.Use(cors.New(config))
	router.Run()
}

Default() allows all origins

func main() {
	router := gin.Default()
	// same as
	// config := cors.DefaultConfig()
	// config.AllowAllOrigins = true
	// router.Use(cors.New(config))
	router.Use(cors.Default())
	router.Run()
}

Functions

func Default

func Default() gin.HandlerFunc

Default returns the location middleware with default configuration.

func New

func New(config Config) gin.HandlerFunc

New returns the location middleware with user-defined custom configuration.

Types

type Config

type Config struct {
	AllowAllOrigins bool

	// AllowedOrigins is a list of origins a cross-domain request can be executed from.
	// If the special "*" value is present in the list, all origins will be allowed.
	// Default value is []
	AllowOrigins []string

	// AllowOriginFunc is a custom function to validate the origin. It take the origin
	// as argument and returns true if allowed or false otherwise. If this option is
	// set, the content of AllowedOrigins is ignored.
	AllowOriginFunc func(origin string) bool

	// AllowedMethods is a list of methods the client is allowed to use with
	// cross-domain requests. Default value is simple methods (GET and POST)
	AllowMethods []string

	// AllowedHeaders is list of non simple headers the client is allowed to use with
	// cross-domain requests.
	AllowHeaders []string

	// AllowCredentials indicates whether the request can include user credentials like
	// cookies, HTTP authentication or client side SSL certificates.
	AllowCredentials bool

	// ExposedHeaders indicates which headers are safe to expose to the API of a CORS
	// API specification
	ExposeHeaders []string

	// MaxAge indicates how long (in seconds) the results of a preflight request
	// can be cached
	MaxAge time.Duration
}

Config represents all available options for the middleware.
