A CORS-friendly local proxy to access cross origin resources
---
A temporary workaround for common CORS errors like:
```sh
Access to fetch at 'http://api.example.com/posts' from origin 'http://localhost:8082' has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn't pass access control check: No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. If an opaque response serves your needs, set the request's mode to 'no-cors' to fetch the resource with CORS disabled.
Access to fetch at 'http://api.example.com/posts' from origin 'http://localhost:8082' has been blocked by CORS policy: Request header field content-type is not allowed by Access-Control-Allow-Headers in preflight response.
```
## Installation
Install as a global module (recommended)
```sh
npm install -g cors-backdoor
```
Install as a dev dependency
```sh
npm install -D cors-backdoor
```
## Quick Start
```sh
cors-backdoor --target http://api.example.com
```
This will start a local proxy running on the port `1234` for the target `http://api.example.com`. The client will have to
be reconfigured to make requests which looked like `http://api.example.com/posts` to `http://localhost:1234/posts`
instead
