Ok, thanks Martin,
Now I need to dig deeper into how my current working Windows CLI code makes the request without proxy and without triggering CORS. - Simon From: Martin Wawrusch [mailto:mar...@wawrusch.com] Sent: Sunday, April 3, 2016 11:50 PM To: AngularJS Cc: simon.car...@datamystic.com Subject: Re: [AngularJS] Re: angular-ified version of the request.js module to avoid CORS? Sanders was talking about request. And he is right. There is no way around CORS when using the browser as it is embedded in the network stack. You have the following options, as Sanders said: * If you control the server add CORS support there * You can ask whomever controls the server to add CORS support * You can write a simple proxy that supports CORS and proxies to the server in question.

NO CORS. But using any angular functions in my angular app (ie a different app) does not work due to CORS. My simple app that works is https://github.com/datamystic/share2predictbgl-bridge Let me know if I can help further.

Hi Simon, Node has no CORS issue. You can use whatever you want in node to retrieve content, and it will just work. CORS is a server/browsers interface to protect the server from being used as a free resource. So yes, requirejs is node-only, and that it has no CORS issue in node. However, if you get it running in the browser(unlikely..) it also will have an CORS restriction on it. There are 2 ways you can access an CORS protected resource. 1. ask the server-owner to allow your app. (easiest way) 2. use a CORS proxy. (simplest form, write an endpoint in your own server that fetches the resource you need) Hope this helps you a bit, Regards Sander -- You received this message because you are subscribed to a topic in the Google Groups "AngularJS" group.
