Ionic Http request getting error with XML object

Ionic Framework
#1

I’ve a problem when I try to send an XML object to Geoserver.
When I try with Postman it sends successfully, even in Geoserver Demo.
But with my emulator I get these errors.

I’ve tried HTTPClient, XMLHttpRequest and HTTP from '@ionic-native/http/ngx'; but I don’t get a good feedback.

With XMLHttpRequest and HttpClient I get this error:

Access to XMLHttpRequest at ‘http://ip_address:port/geoserver/worksapce/wfs’ from origin ‘http://localhost’ has been blocked by CORS policy: Response to preflight request doesn’t pass access control check: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present on the requested resource.

And with HTTP from '@ionic-native/http/ngx'; I get this one

Error: advanced-http: “data” option is configured to support only following data types: Object
at Object.processData (helpers.js:400)
at Object.sendRequest (public-interface.js:158)
at Object.post (public-interface.js:174)

at wrapPromise (vendor-es2015.js:98619)

Here is my code

var xmlData= '<wfs:Transaction service="WFS" version="1.0.0" '+
'xmlns:topp="http://www.openplans.org/topp" '+
'xmlns:ogc="http://www.opengis.net/ogc" '+
'xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs">'+
'<wfs:Update typeName="topp:tasmania_roads">'+
'<wfs:Property>'+
'<wfs:Name>TYPE</wfs:Name>'+
'<wfs:Value>street</wfs:Value>'+
'</wfs:Property>'+
'<ogc:Filter>'+
'<ogc:FeatureId fid="tasmania_roads.1"/>'+
'</ogc:Filter>'+
'</wfs:Update>'+
'</wfs:Transaction>';

//Request using HttpCLient

let doc = parser.parseFromString(xmlData, "application/xml");
       
let headers = new HttpHeaders()
.set("Authorization", btoa("admin:geoserver"))
.set('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*')
.set('Content-Type', 'application/xml');
this.httpClient.post(this.ENDPOINT + 'geoserver/workspace/wfs', doc, {headers: headers, 
 withCredentials : true, observe : 'body'})
  .subscribe((rs) => {
  console.error(rs);
})

//Request using HTTP

this.httpNative.post(this.ENDPOINT + 'geoserver/firca_demo/wfs',xmlData , {
      Authorization: btoa("admin:geoserver"), 'Content-Type': 'application/xml',
}
).then((rs) => {
  console.log(rs);
}).catch((err) => {
console.error(err);
})

Need help to solve it.

This is a server-side problem, and I would suggest fixing it and then using HttpClient.

#3

Do you have some links for that. I’ve tried more without success.
:sleepy: :sleepy:

#4

I’m a big fan of MDN.

#5

Did you actually found a fix for this? Without touching the server?

#6

The proper fix is to communicate securely, which requires coordination between the client and server. There’s no way to do that unilaterally. If you can’t fix the server for political reasons, you can employ a secure proxy.

Found a sollution thanks. Using setDataSerializer for the native plugin.
