How can I host web fonts from spaces and make them available on localhost during development?

Posted on December 21, 2018

I am hosting my fonts in spaces - this is the CSS file - https://lumeer-cdn.ams3.digitaloceanspaces.com/latofonts.limited.min.css

During development, the application using this CSS file is hosted on http://localhost:7000. This domain cannot be added in CORS settings (the submit button stays disabled). So I added “*” wildcard. The browser can download the CSS file, but it refuses to download the font files:

Access to font at 'https://lumeer-cdn.ams3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/fonts/Lato-Bold.woff' from origin 'http://localhost:7000' has been blocked by CORS policy: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.

Is there a way to add the headers or any other way to make it work?
