            EVAL,
            nonce('gg3g43#$g32gqewgaAEGeag2@#GFQ#g=='),
            'example.com'
        ],
        'style-src': [
            SELF,

Params

{
    directives: { [key: string]: string[] },
    presets: policies[] | { [key: string]: policies },
    reportUri: string,
    extend: policies // DEPRECATED use presets instead
}

Presets

It's a good idea to group your csp rules into presets. csp-header supports two ways of specifying presets. As an array of policies:

{
    presets: [ cspRulesForSomeServiceAPI, cspRulesForMyStaticCDN, someOtherCSPRules ]
}

or as a map of presets:

{
    presets: {
        api: cspRulesForSomeServiceAPI,
        statics: cspRulesForMyStaticCDN,
        youtubeVideos: cspRulesForYouTube
    }
}

Preset format

If you have a web-service feel free to publish preset of rules for using your service. For example, your service is my-super-service.com. Just publish preset csp-preset-my-super-service containing following code:

modules.exports = {
    'script-src': ['api.my-super-service.com'],
    'img-src': ['images.my-super-service.com']
};

And you'll get a lot of thanks ;)

BREAKING CHANGES in csp-header@2

🔨 No default export

For compability with JS we have to export getCSP as a named export.

const { getCSP } = require('csp-header');

🔨 policies was renamed to directives

🔨 Minimal supported version of Node.JS is 8

🔨 Dropped support of extend

extend was marked as deprecated in previous versions. It doesn't work anymore. Use presets instead.

🔨 Dropped support of specifying presets as a string

csp-header used to require preset if you specify it as a string. Now, you should require it by yourself. Before:

{
    //...
    presets: ['csp-preset-myservice']
}

Now:

{
    //...
    presets: [require('csp-preset-myservice')]
}

🔨 Calling with no arguments returns an empty string

It used to return undefined.
