Re: [tei-council] Allow CORS requests on the vault

I'm not the admin, but if no objections are raised, I can forward the request to Ian Rifkin, our sysadmin. On 11/14/16 4:08 PM, Raffaele Viglianti wrote:

Hi all,

Currently it doesn't seem to be possible to request files from the Vault via JavaScript. This is simple to solve by allowing CORS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing on the server that holds the Vault, but the system admin will have to do that (Kevin?).

I can't imagine this would be problematic: it would simply allow anyone building a JavaScript application to obtain any text, XML, and JSON file on the fly. It certainly would be convenient for the Roma replacement I'm working on.

Any objections?
