Description

This package has framework agnostic Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) implementation. It is complaint with PSR-7 HTTP message interfaces.

Why this package?

• Implementation is based on latest CORS specification.
• Works with PSR-7 HTTP message interfaces.
• Supports debug mode with PSR-3 Logger Interface.
• Flexible, modular and extensible solution.
• High code quality. 100% test coverage.
• Free software license Apache 2.0.

Sample usage

The package is designed to be used as a middleware. Typical usage

use \Neomerx\Cors\Analyzer;
use \Psr\Http\Message\RequestInterface;
use \Neomerx\Cors\Contracts\AnalysisResultInterface;

class CorsMiddleware
{
    /**
     * Handle an incoming request.
     *
     * @param RequestInterface $request
     * @param Closure          $next
     *
     * @return mixed
     */
    public function handle(RequestInterface $request, Closure $next)
    {
        $cors = Analyzer::instance($this->getCorsSettings())->analyze($request);
        
        switch ($cors->getRequestType()) {
            case AnalysisResultInterface::ERR_NO_HOST_HEADER:
            case AnalysisResultInterface::ERR_ORIGIN_NOT_ALLOWED:
            case AnalysisResultInterface::ERR_METHOD_NOT_SUPPORTED:
            case AnalysisResultInterface::ERR_HEADERS_NOT_SUPPORTED:
                // return 4XX HTTP error
                return ...;

            case AnalysisResultInterface::TYPE_PRE_FLIGHT_REQUEST:
                $corsHeaders = $cors->getResponseHeaders();
                // return 200 HTTP with $corsHeaders
                return ...;

            case AnalysisResultInterface::TYPE_REQUEST_OUT_OF_CORS_SCOPE:
                // call next middleware handler
                return $next($request);
            
            default:
                // actual CORS request
                $response    = $next($request);
                $corsHeaders = $cors->getResponseHeaders();
                
                // add CORS headers to Response $response
                ...
                return $response;
        }
    }
}

Install

composer require neomerx/cors-psr7

Debug Mode

Debug logging will provide a detailed step-by-step description of how requests are handled. In order to activate it a PSR-3 compatible Logger should be set to Analyzer.

    /** @var \Psr\Log\LoggerInterface $logger */
    $logger   = ...;
    /** @var \Psr\Http\Message\RequestInterface $request */
    $request  = ...;
    /** @var \Neomerx\Cors\Contracts\Strategies\SettingsStrategyInterface $settings */
    $settings = ...;

    $analyzer = Analyzer::instance($settings);
    $analyzer->setLogger($logger)
    $cors     = $analyzer->analyze($request);

Advanced Usage

There are many possible strategies for handling cross and same origin requests which might and might not depend on data from requests.

This package has built-in strategy called Settings which implements simple settings identical for all requests (same list of allowed origins, same allowed methods for all requests and etc).

However you can customize such behaviour. For example you can send different sets of allowed methods depending on request. This might be helpful when you have some kind of Access Control System and wish to differentiate response based on request (for example on its origin). You can either implement AnalysisStrategyInterface from scratch or override methods in Settings class if only a minor changes are needed to Settings. The new strategy could be sent to Analyzer constructor or Analyzer::instance method could be used for injection.

Example

class CustomMethodsSettings extends Settings
{
    public function getRequestAllowedMethods(
        RequestInterface $request,
        $requestMethod
    ) {
        // An external Access Control System could be used to determine
        // which methods are allowed for this request.
        
        return ...;
    }
}

$cors = Analyzer::instance(new CustomMethodsSettings())->analyze($request);

Testing
