# Go CORS handler [![godoc](http://img.shields.io/badge/godoc-reference-blue.svg?style=flat)](https://godoc.org/github.com/rs/cors) [![license](http://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-red.svg?style=flat)](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rs/cors/master/LICENSE) [![build](https://img.shields.io/travis/rs/cors.svg?style=flat)](https://travis-ci.org/rs/cors) [![Coverage](http://gocover.io/_badge/github.com/rs/cors)](http://gocover.io/github.com/rs/cors)
CORS is a `net/http` handler implementing [Cross Origin Resource Sharing W3 specification](http://www.w3.org/TR/cors/) in Golang.
## Getting Started
After installing Go and setting up your [GOPATH](http://golang.org/doc/code.html#GOPATH), create your first `.go` file. We'll call it `server.go`.
```go
package main
import (
"net/http"
"github.com/rs/cors"
)
func main() {
mux := http.NewServeMux()
mux.HandleFunc("/", func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
w.Write([]byte("{\"hello\": \"world\"}"))
})
// cors.Default() setup the middleware with default options being
// all origins accepted with simple methods (GET, POST). See
// documentation below for more options.
handler := cors.Default().Handler(mux)
http.ListenAndServe(":8080", handler)
}
```
Install `cors`:
go get github.com/rs/cors
Then run your server:
go run server.go
The server now runs on `localhost:8080`:
$ curl -D - -H 'Origin: http://foo.com' http://localhost:8080/
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: foo.com
Content-Type: application/json
Date: Sat, 25 Oct 2014 03:43:57 GMT
Content-Length: 18
{"hello": "world"}

## Parameters
Parameters are passed to the middleware thru the `cors.New` method as follow:
```go
c := cors.New(cors.Options{
AllowedOrigins: []string{"http://foo.com"},
AllowCredentials: true,
})
// Insert the middleware
handler = c.Handler(handler)
```
* **AllowedOrigins** `[]string`: 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. An origin may contain a wildcard (`*`) to replace 0 or more characters (i.e.: `http://*.domain.com`). Usage of wildcards implies a small performance penality. Only one wildcard can be used per origin. The default value is `*`.
* **AllowOriginFunc** `func (origin string) bool`: 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
* **AllowedMethods** `[]string`: A list of methods the client is allowed to use with cross-domain requests. Default value is simple methods (`GET` and `POST`).
* **AllowedHeaders** `[]string`: A list of non simple headers the client is allowed to use with cross-domain requests.
* **ExposedHeaders** `[]string`: Indicates which headers are safe to expose to the API of a CORS API specification
* **AllowCredentials** `bool`: Indicates whether the request can include user credentials like cookies, HTTP authentication or client side SSL certificates. The default is `false`.
* **MaxAge** `int`: Indicates how long (in seconds) the results of a preflight request can be cached. The default is `0` which stands for no max age.
* **OptionsPassthrough** `bool`: Instructs preflight to let other potential next handlers to process the `OPTIONS` method. Turn this on if your application handles `OPTIONS`.
* **Debug** `bool`: Debugging flag adds additional output to debug server side CORS issues.
