JP REST Access
==============

[](#jp-rest-access)

Adds common access and security filters for the WordPress REST API (WP REST).

It does the following:

1. Sets a cross-domain CORS header for the API to prevent cross-domain errors when accessing from a diffrent domain. By default it allows all domains ("\*"). You can set another domain or any array of domains with the "jp\_rest\_access\_cors" filter.
2. Allows for requests to the posts route to use the offset filter, without pagination.
3. Sets a maximum amount of posts that can be requested at once from the posts endpoint. By default the max is 20, that value can be changed with the "jp\_rest\_access\_max\_posts\_per\_page" filter. Prevents someone from trying to DDOS a site with a lot of posts by requesting a ton of posts\_per\_page.

### Installation

[](#installation)

This is not a plugin. It's a composer library. Add `"shelob9/jp-rest-access": "dev-master"` to your site/plugin/theme's composer.json.

### Controlling Cross-Orgin Domain (CORS) Headers

});
```

- Allow from two domains

```
add_filter( 'jp_rest_access_cors', function( $domains ) {
	return array( 'http://somedomain.com', 'http://another_url.com' );
});
```
