# Local CORS Proxy
Simple proxy to bypass CORS issues. This was built as a local dev only solution to enable prototyping against existing APIs without having to worry about CORS.
This module was built to solve the issue of getting this error:
```
No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:3000' is therefore not allowed access. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disable
```
## Getting Started
```
npm install -g local-cors-proxy
```
**Simple Example**
API endpoint that we want to request that has CORS issues:
```
https://www.yourdomain.ie/movies/list
```
Start Proxy:
```
lcp --proxyUrl https://www.yourdomain.ie
```
Then in your client code, new API endpoint:
```
http://localhost:8010/proxy/movies/list
```
End result will be a request to `https://www.yourdomain.ie/movies/list` without the CORS issues!
Alternatively you can install the package locally and add a script to your project:
```json
"scripts": {
"proxy": "lcp --proxyUrl https://www.yourdomain.ie"
}
```
## Options
| Option | Example | Default |
| -------------- | --------------------- | ------: |
| --proxyUrl | https://www.google.ie | |
| --proxyPartial | foo | proxy |

| --credentials | (no value needed) | false |
