AspNetCore.SignalR 2.1 and CORS

Question

I'm migrating our SignalR-Service to the new AspNetCore.SignalR (2.1 preview) and now I get problems with CORS. I will never access the service from the same origin, so I need to disable CORS in general.

I have the folowing CORS policy

services.AddCors(
            options => options.AddPolicy("AllowCors",
                builder =>
                {
                    builder
                        .AllowAnyOrigin()
                        .AllowCredentials()
                        .AllowAnyHeader()
                        .AllowAnyMethod();
                })
        );

(My WebApi-Controller calls from a different origin are working fine with these policy)

With the old preview package of SignalR for AspNetCore (AspNetCore.SignalR.Server) I don't got any problems but now, my test client got some http-405 which seems like an issue with CORS.

Is there maybe a extra CORS configuration for SignalR, or do I need to allow something else?

Edit: I created a fresh/clean sample project without any special middleware to check If the error happens here and it does.

Answer 1

This didn't work for me and a subtly different version did -

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
{
  ...
  app.UseCors(builder => builder
    .AllowAnyHeader()
    .AllowAnyMethod()
    .SetIsOriginAllowed((host) => true)
    .AllowCredentials()
  );

  app.UseSignalR(routes => { routes.MapHub<ChatHub>("/chatHub"); });
  app.UseMvc();
}

Answer 2

Try to move app.UseSignalR() on top of app.UseMvc() like this

app.UseCors("AllowCors");
app.UseSignalR(routes =>
    {
        routes.MapHub<TestHub>("/test");
    });
app.UseMvc();
