Is it Possible to Make Cross-Domain Requests in Javascript AND Set Custom Headers?

问题

Since you can't apply custom headers on JSONP calls, how do I make cross domain requests AND apply custom headers using jQuery?

I'm basically trying to access google docs with jQuery and need to pass an authentication token:

var token = "my-auth-token";
$.ajax({
  url: "http://docs.google.com/feeds/documents/private/full?max-results=1&alt=json",
  dataType: 'json',
  beforeSend: function(xhr) {
    xhr.setRequestHeader("Authorization", "GoogleLogin auth=" + token);
  },
  success: function(data, textStatus, XMLHttpRequest) {
  },
  error: function(XMLHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
  }
});

Note: The goal of this is to completely bypass the application layer. It's simple to use ruby to connect to the Google Data API, but it takes up a lot of resources parsing feeds all the time server-side.

You can use Google's JavaScript client library to query the Docs API. Although it doesn't come with helpers for Docs specifically, it can still be used with most APIs, including Docs. See this blog post by a Google employee that shows a working example.

If you end up in an infinite loop of authorizations, see this related question from Google groups. Basically, the cookies aren't getting set fast enough, so when the JavaScript client library checks, it finds nothing and redirects to the OAuth authorization page. A solution is to either add a small delay before the check is done, or use a login button that initiates the authorization instead of doing it on page load.

You would also need to add any image to your page that resides on the same domain. It can be hidden with CSS, as long as in the DOM.

Using the example in the above blog post, I was able to retrieve my documents list with JavaScript alone. Here's the modified initialize function I used to get rid of the infinite authorization loop:

function initialize() {
    var scope = 'http://docs.google.com/feeds/';

    if (google.accounts.user.checkLogin(scope)) {
        var service = new google.gdata.client.GoogleService('writely', 'DocList-App-v1.0');   
        service.getFeed(scope + 'documents/private/full/', handleFeed, handleError);  
    } else {
        var loginButton = $("<button>Click here to login</button>");
        loginButton.click(function() {
            var token = google.accounts.user.login(scope); // can ignore returned token  
        });
        $("body").append(loginButton);
    }
};

Consider to write some code at the server side which plays for a proxy and let jQuery call it.

• If you're using PHP, use curl.
• If you're using Java, use URLConnection or the more convenienced Apache HttpClient.
• If you're using C#/.NET, use WebClient.
• If you're using Ruby, use Net::HTTP.

You can, as long as the external domain allows it by sending an appropriate Access-Control-Allow-Origin header. Then just use the XMLHttpRequest API in browsers that support the standard cross-domain XHR API and XDomainRequest in IE.
