Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)
In order to permit web control interfaces to be hosted remotely, all NMOS APIs MUST implement valid CORS HTTP headers in responses, and respond to HTTP pre-flight OPTIONS requests. In order to simplify development, the following headers may be returned in order to remove these restrictions as far as possible. Note that these are very relaxed and may not be suitable for a production deployment.
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, PUT, POST, HEAD, OPTIONS, DELETE
Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type, Accept
Access-Control-Max-Age: 3600
To ensure compatibility, the response ‘Access-Control-Allow-Headers’ could be set from the request’s ‘Access-Control-Request-Headers’.
Node API Senders: Use with RTP
When using RTP for a sender, the ‘manifest_href’ must be an HTTP-accessible reference to an SDP file. As-per RFC 4566, SDP files advertised via web services should use a MIME type of ‘application/sdp’ and a file extension of ‘.sdp’.
