How this works

asgi-cors's Issues

Allow callback= to be an awaitable function

If callback= could be provided an awaitable, users could construct functions that e.g. make an async call to a database as part of deciding if a host should be allowed.

I tried implementing this with a asyncio.isawaitable() test against the callable but for some reason it didn't detect my await function as being awaitable. Here's the unit test I added which I failed to get passing:

@pytest.mark.asyncio
async def test_callback_async():
    was_called = False

    async def callback_true(origin):
        return True

    async def callback_false(origin):
        return False

    assert EXAMPLE_HOST == await get_cors_header(asgi_cors(hello_world_app, callback=callback_true), EXAMPLE_HOST)
    assert None == await get_cors_header(asgi_cors(hello_world_app, callback=callback_false), EXAMPLE_HOST)

Handling graphql requests

Hello! I was working with strawberry-graphql[channels], a graphql server based on django channels.
In the meantime, I needed a cors library that supports asgi, so I used asgi_cors.
If the client requests a query to the server to get a response,
Is there any way other than directly modifying asgi_cors.py?

# asgi_cors.py
...
if access_control_allow_origin is not None:
    status = 200 if scope["method"] == "OPTIONS" else event["status"]  ####################
    event = {
        "type": "http.response.start",
        "status": status,
        "headers": [ p for p in original_headers if p[0] != b"access-control-allow-origin"]
        + [
            [ b"access-control-allow-origin", access_control_allow_origin],
            [ b"access-control-allow-headers", b"Content-Type"]  ####################
        ],
    }
await send(event)

added lines

• add for preflight method OPTIONS, if i don't add then event["status"] is 405
• add access-control-allow-headers, if i don't add then get error because in request, gql is sent

I met each and every problem about cors in my situation and managed to solve it.
But I'm not sure if this is the right solution and I'm asking to see if there is a better way.
Actually, I don't know if I can post this on Issues.
If it's a problem, I'll delete it.
Thanks for reading the long article.

How to use with Django Channels

Hello,

I've tried to use this library with django channels and daphne. Unfortunately, I was not able to get it working. Could you add some documentation?

Best wishes
