Minimal React Setup + express

Minimal React Setup to run suomifi-ui-components in strict CSP with the help of nonce, served by express.

⚡️ Quick Start

• To install required dependencies, build and serve it: yarn start:fresh
• Open your browser at localhost:3123.

✨ Features

• ejs template to pass the nonce from server to client side
• Strict Content-Security-Policy
• suomifi-ui-components
• uuid, for generating nonce
• helmet-csp, adding nonce to Response Headers

❗️Disclaimer

This is not the prettiest way of doing this, but this is just a Proof Of Concept.

🚔 Content-Security-Policy

Content-Security-Policy is set to be quite finicky and not allowing too much.

Here are the Content Security Policy from Response Headers:

Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'none'; base-uri 'self'; object-src 'none'; script-src 'self' 'nonce-xxx'; style-src 'self' 'nonce-xxx'; font-src 'self' data:; connect-src 'self'; img-src 'self'

This is done with helmet-csp.

You can read more about the CSP from their docs: https://helmetjs.github.io/docs/csp/

🚪 nonce

In the Content-Security-Policy above, the nonce-xxx has the xxx replaced with the generated value by the server.

🧱ejs

<?=nonce?> value in the meta-tag is replaced by the template engine, ejs, on the express's side.

💄styled-components

As styled-components needs the nonce for it's style it does need the __webpack_nonce__to be set. This is currently done in create-nonce.js.

As you can see, the nonce is read from the meta-tag, named nonce.
