I have written a flask app & deployed it to app engine that would run some python scripts and returns some data when I make a POST request to a url something like:
import logging
import firebase_admin
from firebase_admin import firestore
import flask
app = flask.Flask(__name__)
@app.route('/test', methods=['POST'])
def get_data():
data = flask.request.json
return flask.jsonify({"test":1000);
I'm trying to make a POST request like below to the " https://****.appspot.com/test" on the client which is a web app hosted on Firebase hosting but am getting 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' error.
fetch('https://***.appspot.com/vrp', {
method: 'POST',
data: null
})
.then(response =>
console.log(`response is ` , response.json()))
I saw here that I can edit app.yaml but I can't figure it out. Am I making a mistake?
My app.yaml:
runtime: custom
env: flex
entrypoint: gunicorn -b :$PORT main:app
runtime_config:
python_version: 3
handlers:
- url: /*
static_dir: /
http_headers:
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: "*"
manual_scaling:
instances: 1
resources:
cpu: 1
memory_gb: 0.5
disk_size_gb: 10
I ended up using flask_cors and that fixed the problem. Simply use it like below in your main.py or your where you have your code.
import logging
import firebase_admin
from firebase_admin import firestore
import flask
from flask_cors import CORS
app = flask.Flask(__name__)
CORS(app)
@app.route('/test', methods=['POST'])
def get_data():
data = flask.request.json
print('@/get_data via route /test method POST with data {}'.format(data))
return flask.jsonify({"test":1000});
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run(host='127.0.0.1', port=8080, debug=True)
