A universal [Cross-Origin Resource Sharing(CORS)](https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/HTTP/Access_control_CORS) middleware. Derrived from [@koa/cors](https://github.com/koajs/cors).

## Installation

```bash
npm install corsen
```

or
```bash
yarn add corsen
```

## Quick start

Enable cors with default options:

- origin: request Origin header
- allowMethods: GET,HEAD,PUT,POST,DELETE,PATCH

```js
const http = require('http')
const cors = require('corsen')({
// place your options here
})

const server = http.createServer((req, res) => {
cors(req, res)
// if you pass a function to options.origin and that function returns a Promise, you can use async/await: await cors(req, res)
res.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Type': 'text/plain' })
res.end('ok')
})
```

## cors(options)

```js
/**
* CORS middleware
*
* @param {Object} [options]
* - {String|Function(req, res)} origin `access-control-allow-origin`, default is request Origin header
* - {String|Array} allowMethods `access-control-allow-methods`, default is 'GET,HEAD,PUT,POST,DELETE,PATCH'
* - {String|Array} exposeHeaders `access-control-expose-headers`
* - {String|Array} allowHeaders `access-control-allow-headers`
* - {String|Number} maxAge `access-control-max-age` in seconds
* - {Boolean} credentials `access-control-allow-credentials`
* @return {Function} cors middleware
* @api public
*/
```

## Difference between corsen and @koa/cors

- The middleware function returned by `corsen` has a signature of `function(http.IncomingMessage, http.ServerResponse)`, while `@koa/cors` recieves a koa's `Context` object.
- All the header names set in `corsen` are lowercase.
- `corsen` has removed the error handling utility of `@koa/cors`. There is not `keepHeadersOnError` porperty in options.
