AWS CORS proxy twitter
A small implementation of a proxy server based on AWS lambda.
Twitter does not allow CORS requests and this makes impossible to implement static application against it API.
This AWS lambda skeleton is a simple solution.
You can deploy it on AWS lambda and make requests against this endpoint, the lambda will forward the request to the twitter API and will send back the response.
Since I know you are lazy, you can just upload the .zip included in the repository. In general this is a bad practise, and you should vet the code you are running.
Authentication
By default it will set the Authorization to the env variable: AUTHORIZATION_TOKEN.
You should set the AUTHORIZATION_TOKEN to your token, that should looks somehow like this: Bearer ...long string....
Include both the Bearer and the whitespace just after the Bearer in the env variable.
To get the token you can follow this guide or even this gist
CORS
The function set the header of the response Access-Control-Allow-Origin to the value of the environmental variable ACCESS_CONTROL_ALLOW_ORIGIN.
