jQuery add CSRF token to all $.post() requests' data

问题

I am working on a Laravel 5 app that has CSRF protection enabled by default for all POST requests. I like this added security so I am trying to work with it.

While making a simple $.post() request I received a \'Illuminate\\Session\\TokenMismatchException\' error because the required form input _token was missing from the POST data. Here is an example of a $.post request in question:

var userID = $(\"#userID\").val();
$.post(\'/admin/users/delete-user\', {id:userID}, function() {
// User deleted
});

I have my CSRF token stored as a meta field in my header and can easily access it using:

var csrf_token = $(\'meta[name=\"csrf-token\"]\').attr(\'content\');

Is it possible to append this to the json data on all outgoing $.post() requests? I tried using headers but Laravel did not seem to recognize them -

var csrf_token = $(\'meta[name=\"csrf-token\"]\').attr(\'content\');
alert(csrf_token);
$.ajaxPrefilter(function(options, originalOptions, jqXHR){
    if (options[\'type\'].toLowerCase() === \"post\") {
        jqXHR.setRequestHeader(\'X-CSRFToken\', csrf_token);
    }
});

Your $.ajaxPrefilter approach is a good one. You don't need to add a header, though; you simply need to add a property to the data string.

Data is provided as the the second argument to $.post, and then formatted as a query string (id=foo&bar=baz&...) before the prefilter gets access to the data option. Thus, you need to add your own field to the query string:

var csrf_token = $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content');
$.ajaxPrefilter(function(options, originalOptions, jqXHR){
    if (options.type.toLowerCase() === "post") {
        // initialize `data` to empty string if it does not exist
        options.data = options.data || "";

        // add leading ampersand if `data` is non-empty
        options.data += options.data?"&":"";

        // add _token entry
        options.data += "_token=" + encodeURIComponent(csrf_token);
    }
});

This will turn id=userID into id=userID&_token=csrf_token.

From Laravel documentation:

You could, for example, store the token in a "meta" tag:

Once you have created the meta tag, you can instruct a library like jQuery to add the token to all request headers. This provides simple, convenient CSRF protection for your AJAX based applications:

$.ajaxSetup({ headers: { 'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content') } });

So for example you can do request like below.

Add this meta tag to your view:

<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">

And this is an example script which you can communicate with Laravel (sends request when you click an element with id="some-id" and you can see the response in an element with id="result"):

<script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function(){

        $.ajaxSetup({
            headers:
            { 'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content') }
        });

        $("#some-id").on("click", function () {
            var request;


            request = $.ajax({
                url: "/your/url",
                method: "POST",
                data:
                {
                    a: 'something',
                    b: 'something else',
                },
                datatype: "json"
            });

            request.done(function(msg) {
                $("#result").html(msg);
            });

            request.fail(function(jqXHR, textStatus) {
                $("#result").html("Request failed: " + textStatus);
            });
        });

    });
</script>

Generally I agree with the concept Kornel suggested except one thing.

Yes, Laravel's docs advice to use $.ajaxSetup, but it's not recommended since this method affects all the subsequent ajax requests. It is more correctly to set the ajax settings for each request. Though you can re-set stuff:

All subsequent Ajax calls using any function will use the new settings, unless overridden by the individual calls, until the next invocation of $.ajaxSetup()

If you use $.ajax(), it's more convenient to utilize either data property or headers. Laravel allows CSRF-token both as a request parameter or a header.

First, you add the following meta tag into the view

<meta name="csrf-token" content="{{ csrf_token() }}">

And then make an ajax request either way:

$.ajax({
    url: "/your/url",
    method: "POST",
    data:
    {
        a: 'something',
        b: 'something else',
        _token: $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
    },
    datatype: "json"
});

$.ajax({
    url: "/your/url",
    method: "POST",
    data:
    {
        a: 'something',
        b: 'something else',
    },
    headers: 
    {
        'X-CSRF-TOKEN': $('meta[name="csrf-token"]').attr('content')
    }
    datatype: "json"
});

The Django documentation on CSRF gives a nice code snippet with ajaxSetup for automatically adding the appropriate header to all request types where it matters:

function csrfSafeMethod(method) {
    // these HTTP methods do not require CSRF protection
    return (/^(GET|HEAD|OPTIONS|TRACE)$/.test(method));
}
$.ajaxSetup({
    beforeSend: function(xhr, settings) {
        if (!csrfSafeMethod(settings.type) && !this.crossDomain) {
            xhr.setRequestHeader("X-CSRFToken", csrftoken);
        }
    }
});

I think that above solution might not work as well. When you do:

var x; 
x + ""
// "undefined" + empty string coerces value to string

You will get data like "undefined_token=xxx"

When you use the above solution for laravel's delete for instance you have to check like this:

if (typeof options.data === "undefined")
    options.data = "";
else
    options.data += "&";
options.data = "_token=" + csrf_token;

回答6:

there is a much easier method to do this you can serialize the data like so before sending

<form method="post" id="formData">
 <input type="text" name="name" >
 <input type="hidden" name="_token" value="{{ csrf_token() }}">
 <input type="submit" id="sub" class="btn btn-default" value="Submit" />                            
</form>
<script>
    $(document).on('submit', '#formData', function (event) {
    event.preventDefault();
     var formData = $('#formData').serialize();
    $.ajax({
        url: url,
       type: "POST",
       data : formData,   
                success: function (result) {
                    console.log(result);                             
                }
           });
        });

    });
</script>

everything with a name attr will be put in to a query and submited
