-----------------------------------

             Summary: Add support for CORS headers to REST server
                 Key: ISPN-6864
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-6864
             Project: Infinispan
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Remote Protocols
            Reporter: James Falkner
            Priority: Minor


Currently it is not possible to enable browser-based applications to call infinispan REST APIs due to the lack of [CORS|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing] headers in the responses, and there is no way to alter the underlying web server to include these.

This request asks that CORS headers be optionally returned in REST requests, and be configurable by admins. Specifically, the following headers:

* Access-Control-Allow-Origin
* Access-Control-Allow-Credentials
* Access-Control-Expose-Headers
* Access-Control-Max-Age
* Access-Control-Allow-Methods
* Access-Control-Allow-Headers

This would enable browser-based apps to function when working across domains.
