    // Pass to next layer of middleware
    next();

var express = require('express')
var cors = require('cors')
var app = express()

app.use(cors())

app.get('/products/:id', function (req, res, next) {
  res.json({msg: 'This is CORS-enabled for all origins!'})
})

app.listen(80, function () {
  console.log('CORS-enabled web server listening on port 80')
})

var allowedOrigins = ['http://localhost:3000',
                      'http://yourapp.com'];
app.use(cors({  
  origin: function(origin, callback){
    // allow requests with no origin     
    // (like mobile apps or curl requests)    
    if(!origin) 
      return callback(null, true);    
    if(allowedOrigins.indexOf(origin) === -1){
      var msg = 'The CORS policy for this site does not ' +                
          'allow access from the specified Origin.';      
      return callback(new Error(msg), false);    
    }    
    return callback(null, true);
