ReactPHP Cors Middleware

This middleware implements Cross-origin resource sharing for ReactPHP. This repository got mainly inspired by tuupola/cors-middleware. Additional configuration ideas got taken from barryvdh/laravel-cors and nelmio/NelmioCorsBundle. The internal heavy lifting is done by neomerx/cors-psr7 library.

Install

To install via Composer, use the command below, it will automatically detect the latest version and bind it with ^.

This middleware will detect CORS requests and will intercept the request if there is something invalid.

Usage

Configuration

The defaults for this middleware are mainly taken from enable-cors.org.

Available configuration options

Thanks to expressjs/cors#configuring-cors. As I took most configuration descriptions from there.

• server_url: can be used to set enable strict Host header checks to avoid malicious use of our server. (default: null)
• response_code: can be used to set the HTTP-StatusCode on a successful OPTIONS / Pre-Flight-Request (default: 204)
• allow_credentials: Configures the Access-Control-Allow-Credentials CORS header. Expects an boolean (ex: true // to set the header)
• allow_origin: Configures the Access-Control-Allow-Origin CORS header. Expects an array (ex: ['http://example.net', 'https://example.net']).
• allow_origin_callback: Will set allow_origin to an empty array [] and use the callback on a per-request base. The first parameter is an instance of ParsedUrlInterface and the callback is expected to return an boolean.
• allow_methods: Configures the Access-Control-Allow-Methods CORS header. Expects an array (ex: ['GET', 'PUT', 'POST']).
• allow_headers: Configures the Access-Control-Allow-Headers CORS header. Expects an array (ex: ['Content-Type', 'Authorization']).
• expose_headers: Configures the Access-Control-Expose-Headers CORS header. Expects an array (ex: ['Content-Range', 'X-Content-Range']).
• max_age: Configures the Access-Control-Max-Age CORS header. Expects an integer representing seconds (ex: 1728000 // 20 days)

Default Settings (Allow All CORS Requests)

Allow specific origins (Origin requires scheme, host and optionally port)

Allow origins on a per-request base (callback)

Use custom response code on pre-flight requests

Some legacy browsers choke on 204. Thanks to expressjs/cors#configuring-cors for that.

Use strict host checking

The default handling of this middleware will allow any "Host"-header. This means that you can use your server with any hostname you want. This might be a desired behavior but allows also the misuse of your server.

To prevent such a behavior there is a server_url option which will enable strict host checking. In this scenario the server will return a 403 with the body Origin not allowed.
