Obtaining the CORS Configuration of a Bucket (SDK for Node.js)

If you have any questions during development, post them on the Issues page of GitHub.

Function

Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) is a mechanism defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) that allows a web application program in one domain to access resources located in another one. For normal web page requests, website scripts and contents in one domain cannot interact with those in another because of Same Origin Policies (SOPs). OBS supports CORS rules that allow the resources in OBS to be requested by other domains.

This API returns the CORS configuration of a bucket.

Restrictions

Method

ObsClient.getBucketCors(params)

Request Parameters

Table 1 BucketRequestInput

Parameter

Type

Mandatory (Yes/No)

Description

Bucket

string

Yes

Explanation:

Bucket name.

Restrictions:

  • A bucket name must be unique across all accounts and regions.
  • A bucket name:
    • Must be 3 to 63 characters long and start with a digit or letter. Lowercase letters, digits, hyphens (-), and periods (.) are allowed.
    • Cannot be formatted as an IP address.
    • Cannot start or end with a hyphen (-) or period (.).
    • Cannot contain two consecutive periods (..), for example, my..bucket.
    • Cannot contain a period (.) and a hyphen (-) adjacent to each other, for example, my-.bucket or my.-bucket.
  • If you repeatedly create buckets with the same name in the same region, no error will be reported, and the bucket attributes comply with those set in the first creation request.

Value range:

The value can contain 3 to 63 characters.

Default value:

None

Table 4 ICommonMsg

Parameter

Type

A status code is a group of digits indicating the status of a response. It ranges from 2xx (indicating successes) to 4xx or 5xx (indicating errors). For details, see Status Codes.

Code

string

Explanation:

Error code returned by the OBS server.

Message

string

Explanation:

Error description returned by the OBS server.

HostId

string

Explanation:

Request server ID returned by the OBS server.

RequestId

string

Explanation:

Request ID returned by the OBS server.

Id2

string

Explanation:

Request ID2 returned by the OBS server.

Indicator

string

Explanation:

Error code details returned by the OBS server.

Table 5 GetBucketCorsOutput

Parameter

Type

Description

RequestId

string

Explanation:

Request ID returned by the OBS server

CorsRules

CorsRule[]

Explanation:

CORS rule list of the bucket. For details, see CorsRule.

Table 6 CorsRule

Parameter

Type

Mandatory (Yes/No)

Description

ID

string

No if used as a request parameter

Explanation:

CORS rule ID.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

The value must contain 1 to 255 characters.

Default value:

None

AllowedMethod

string[]

Yes if used as a request parameter

Explanation:

The allowed HTTP methods (types of operations on buckets and objects) for a cross-origin request.

Restrictions:

None

Value range:

The following HTTP methods are supported:

  • GET
  • PUT
  • HEAD
  • POST
  • DELETE

Default value:

None

AllowedOrigin

string[]

Yes if used as a request parameter

Explanation:

The origin that is allowed to access the bucket.

Restrictions:

Domain name of the origin. Each origin can contain at most one wildcard character (*). Example: https://*.vbs.example.com

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

AllowedHeader

string[]

No if used as a request parameter

Explanation:

The allowed cross-origin request headers. Only CORS requests matching the allowed headers are valid.

Restrictions:

Each header can contain at most one wildcard character (*). Spaces, ampersands (&), colons (:), less-than signs (<), and full-width characters are not allowed.

Value range:

None

Default value:

None

MaxAgeSeconds

number

No if used as a request parameter

Explanation:

How long the response can be cached on a client

Restrictions:

Each CORS rule can contain at most one MaxAgeSeconds.

Value range:

0 to (231 – 1), in seconds

Default value:

100

ExposeHeader

string[]

No if used as a request parameter

Explanation:

It specifies additional headers a CORS rule allows in a response, which can be used to provide extra information to clients. By default, a browser can access only headers Content-Length and Content-Type. If the browser needs to access other headers, you need to configure them as additional headers.

Restrictions:

Spaces, asterisks (*), ampersands (&), colons (:), less-than signs (<), and full-width characters are not allowed.

Value range:

None

Default value:

None
