I am having a problem in loading my fonts from a link from my website. ON what I have seen there is an error in my server.js that CORS is not present in my header. Now, My problem is How will I insert the header into my server.js Can someone help me?

Here is the error

Font from origin ‘my website link’ has been blocked from loading by Cross-Origin Resource Sharing policy: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource. Origin ‘http://localhost:3001‘ is therefore not allowed access

  1. You can insert the headers as showed below. This is working on my project without any issues.

    // Where app -> const app = express(); 
    app.use(function(req, res, next) {
        res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
        res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");
        next();
    });
    

    By the way, you can improve your code separating routing logic from app.js, and using Router: http://expressjs.com/es/api.html#router

  2. Straight from this website, on enabling CORS in express:

    app.use(function(req, res, next) {
      res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");
      res.header("Access-Control-Allow-Headers", "Origin, X-Requested-With, Content-Type, Accept");
      next();
    });
    
    app.get('/', function(req, res, next) {
      // Handle the get for this route
    });
    
    app.post('/', function(req, res, next) {
     // Handle the post for this route
    });

  3. Install cors from npm,

    npm install cors
    

    And, add it as middleware

    app.use(cors());
    

    Goog luck!
