Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) is a specification that enables truly open access across domain-boundaries.
The Enable-Cors project collects various solutions for different platforms and adapted my solution for static hosted content on the Google Appengine.
The solution is listed on the Resources page under "Libraries for implementing CORS" where you can find the link to the complete library to deploy static content to the Appengine and fully control "Cross-Origin Resource Sharing".
from google.appengine.ext import webapp from google.appengine.ext.webapp.util import run_wsgi_app import os class MainPage(webapp.RequestHandler): def get(self): self.redirect('/index.html') class CORSEnabledHandler(webapp.RequestHandler): def get(self, path): path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'static', path.split('/')[-1]) self.response.headers.add_header("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*") # any type self.response.headers['Content-Type'] = '*.*' self.response.out.write(open(path, 'rb').read()) application = webapp.WSGIApplication( [('/(.+)$', CORSEnabledHandler), ('/', MainPage)], debug=True) def main(): run_wsgi_app(application) if __name__ == "__main__": main()
