@lambda-middleware/cors

AWS lambda middleware for automatically adding CORS headers.

Lambda middleware

This middleware is part of the lambda middleware series. It can be used independently.

Usage

import { cors } from "@lambda-middleware/cors";
import { APIGatewayProxyResult } from "aws-lambda";

// This is your AWS handler
async function helloWorld(): Promise<APIGatewayProxyResult> {
  return {
    statusCode: 200,
    body: "",
  };
}

/**
 * Wrap the handler with the middleware. It can be used just with
 * default options or configured in detail.
 * If you are using an API Gateway or Serverless to deploy, please note
 * that they will overwrite some of these settings and need to be configured
 * separately.
 */
