Question

Configuring access conrol allow origin

Access to font at ‘https://acsess.sgp1.digitaloceanspaces.com/acsess/plugins/fonts/outline-icons.ttf’ from origin ‘http://localhost:8000’ has been blocked by CORS policy: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource.

These are one of the files from collectstatic.

This is the error I get on my spaces account.

I am using Django with Boto3 and django-storages.

How can I get these files to work.

Hi @acsfess,

Django by default does not provide the headers necessary to provide cross origin. The easiest way would be to just use this Django app that handles it for you: https://github.com/ottoyiu/django-cors-headers

You can then set whichever domains you want white listed using the settings

CORS_ORIGIN_WHITELIST = (
    'google.com',
    'hostname.example.com'
)

to support allowing all, just use the setting… CORS_ORIGIN_ALLOW_ALL = True and then do any filtering of the request in the middleware or in the view.

Regards, KDSys
