I am using CORS https://www.npmjs.com/package/cors to allow whitedomain
list.
var whitelist = ['http://example1.com', 'http://example2.com'];
var corsOptions = {
origin: function(origin, callback){
var originIsWhitelisted = whitelist.indexOf(origin) !== -1;
callback(null, originIsWhitelisted);
}
};
app.post('/products/:id', cors(corsOptions), function (req, res, next) {
console.log(0);
res.json({ msg: 'This is CORS-enabled for a whitelisted domain.' });
});
In case of non whitedomain
the server returns No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin'
which is fine but at the same time I can see on debug that the lines res.json({ msg: 'This is CORS-enabled for a whitelisted domain.' });
and console.log(0);
still gets executed - console.log(0);
printed 0
in console on server side which is something I do not wan't in that case.
So lets say if is writhing to database:
app.post('/products/:id', cors(corsOptions), function (req, res, next) {
writeToDatabase();
res.json({ msg: 'This is CORS-enabled for a whitelisted domain.' });
});
This way writeToDatabase();
will always be executed. But I want to avoid that because I do not need to write any stuff in to database in case of non whitelisted
domain.
Any thoughts?
