i've created a small API using Node/Express and trying to pull data using Angularjs but as my html page is running under apache on localhost:8888 and node API is listen on port 3000, i am getting the No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin'. I tried using node-http-proxy and Vhosts Apache but not having much succes, please see full error and code below.
XMLHttpRequest cannot load localhost:3000. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'localhost:8888' is therefore not allowed access."
// Api Using Node/Express
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var contractors = [
{
"id": "1",
"name": "Joe Blogg",
"Weeks": 3,
"Photo": "1.png"
}
];
app.use(express.bodyParser());
app.get('/', function(req, res) {
res.json(contractors);
});
app.listen(process.env.PORT || 3000);
console.log('Server is running on Port 3000')
Angular code
angular.module('contractorsApp', [])
.controller('ContractorsCtrl', function($scope, $http,$routeParams) {
$http.get('localhost:3000').then(function(response) {
var data = response.data;
$scope.contractors = data;
})
HTML
<body ng-app="contractorsApp">
<div ng-controller="ContractorsCtrl">
<ul>
<li ng-repeat="person in contractors">{{person.name}}</li>
</ul>
</div>
</body>
