I'm developing a android app using Ionic Framework based in a AngularJS web site I developed using Jhipster. As I already have server code running in my web application, I've choose Ionic to work as UI and call server when needed, but I'm having some issues in my development enviroment.
- As I run my application using Ionic serve, I need use CORS to make requests to server.
- My web application was developed using CSRF token with Spring Security
I'm using Apache CORS filter configured this way:
private void initCORSFilter(ServletContext servletContext, EnumSet<DispatcherType> disps) {
FilterRegistration.Dynamic corsFilter = servletContext.addFilter("cors", new CorsFilter());
Map<String, String> parameters = new HashMap<>();
parameters.put("cors.allowed.origins", "http://localhost:3000");
parameters.put("cors.allowed.headers", "x-auth-token, x-requested-with, Content-Type, Accept, cache-control, x-csrf-token, Origin, Access-Control-Request-Method, Access-Control-Request-Headers");
parameters.put("cors.allowed.methods", "POST, PUT, GET, DELETE");
parameters.put("cors.exposed.headers", "Access-Control-Allow-Origin, Access-Control-Allow-Credentials");
parameters.put("cors.support.credentials", "true");
corsFilter.setInitParameters(parameters);
corsFilter.addMappingForUrlPatterns(disps, true, "/*");
}
then I used angular-csrf-cross-domain plugin to help with cross domain csrf requests:
.config(function ($urlRouterProvider,csrfCDProvider) {
$urlRouterProvider.otherwise('/');
//enable CSRF
csrfCDProvider.setHeaderName('X-CSRF-TOKEN');
csrfCDProvider.setCookieName('CSRF-TOKEN');
});
Then I try send a post request to my local server:
angular.module('consamiApp')
.factory('Register', function ($resource) {
//globalURL is https://localhost:8080
return $resource(globalURL+'api/register', {}, {
});
});
.
.
.
createAccount: function (account, callback) {
var cb = callback || angular.noop;
return Register.save(account,
function () {
return cb(account);
},
function (err) {
this.logout();
return cb(err);
}.bind(this)).$promise;
}
However I'm getting this message in firefox console:
Cross-origin locked request: The same origin policy (Same Origin Policy) prevents reading the remote resource in https://localhost:8080/api/register. (Reason: CORS heading 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' is not present)
NEW INFORMATION
AngularJs make 2 CORS requests to the server when I submit the form I'm testing: OPTIONS and POST, the results of the requests are 200 OK and 403 Forbidden. These are the headers of the 2 requests and responses:

Is there something I didn't noticed? The Ionic's official blog says I should not worry about CORS issue when deploying the app, however at least for tests, I really need solve this problems. Could you give me any options?
