Why can I use "http://localhost:PORT" with CORS in Spaces?

Posted on January 24, 2018

Safari doesn’t respect my wildcard rule in CORS but Firefox and Chrome do. None of the suggestions in this StackOverflow post helped either: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16824661/cors-request-not-working-in-safari/39875236.

I feel like this could be remedied if Spaces was configured to allow a URL without a TLD.

Thanks for flagging this issue for us. It looks like the input validation in our control panel is a bit too strict here. As a work-around until this experience is improved, you can create CORs configurations for Spaces using the API for origins without a TLD. For example, using s3cmd you can run:

  1. s3cmd setcors cors.xml s3://example-space

Where the contents of the cors.xml file contains your CORs configurations in XML format. For example:

<CORSConfiguration>
 <CORSRule>
   <AllowedOrigin>http://localhost:3000</AllowedOrigin>

   <AllowedMethod>PUT</AllowedMethod>
   <AllowedMethod>POST</AllowedMethod>
   <AllowedMethod>DELETE</AllowedMethod>

   <AllowedHeader>*</AllowedHeader>
 </CORSRule>
</CORSConfiguration>

CORS options are now available thru DigitalOcean Dashboard. If you are facing this problem:

  1. Go to https://cloud.digitalocean.com/spaces
  2. Select your Space
  3. Go to Settings tab
  4. On “CORS Configurations”, click on the “+” (Plus) button

Create a new configuration with this values:

  • Origin: *
  • Allowed Methods: GET
  • Allowed Headers: Click “Add header” an them: *
  • Save options

Should work.

With me Localhost works only after set a certified on php.ini.

https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem

curl.cainfo = “path_to_cert\cacert.pem”

I hope help you guys!
