This blog post talks about enabling Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) on PoGoAPI.net<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

What is CORS (Cross-Origin Resource Sharing)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cross-Origin Resource Sharing defines whether a browser can load resources from other origins different from the one that it is currently loading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By default browsers will only load resources from the same origin, which means you are unable to load resources from another domain even if it something else you run.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cross-Origin Resource Sharing allows defining a header which tells a browser what origins the resource may be loaded from, if it not the current origin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can allow browsers to access resources from different domains or ports than the primary one it is using.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cross-Origin Resource Sharing is now enabled on PoGoAPI.net<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Someone contacted me asking if I could enable Cross-Origin Resource Sharing and after speaking with them I agreed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This should mean that you can load the resources from a browser without having to bypass the Cross-Origin Resource Sharing header. Although we still recommend using the hashes API<\/a> to ensure you only pull the data when it has changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As usual, if there is anything else you think should be changed, feel free to contact me!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
