I am a newbie to Django and trying to enable CORS for my server. I couldn't find a built-in solution so I went with django-cors-headers. I am running my server in conda environment on python 3.5 in Ubuntu 15.04. So I installed it with pip3 install django-cors-header. When I do pip3 list it shoes django-cors-header installed at version 1.2.2. In my django app I did.
INSTALLED_APPS = [
'django.contrib.admin',
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'django.contrib.sessions',
'django.contrib.messages',
'django.contrib.staticfiles',
'corsheaders',
'polls',
]
MIDDLEWARE = [
'django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware',
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'corsheaders.middleware.CorsMiddleware',
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
'django.middleware.clickjacking.XFrameOptionsMiddleware',
]
CORS_ORIGIN_ALLOW_ALL = True
But when I run python3 manage.py runserver
It stops saying ImportError: No module named 'corsheaders'
.
I have read all SO posts regarding it but none seem to solve my problem.
Kindly help
Originally I did pip3 install django-cors-headers
, instead by fluke I tried pip install django-cors-headers
and voila it worked.
Hope it helps somebody
