CWP Core Module

CI

About this module

This module includes core configuration that integrates a Silverstripe CMS project with the underlying infrastructure of Silverstripe Cloud Platform CCL (formally Revera). Most NZ public sector projects will have this module included after installing the silverstripe/recipe-ccl recipe module.

Installation

composer require cwp/cwp-core

Configuration

There are some settings that can be modified in this module, depending on requirements. These are listed below.

XSS Protection

By default, sites using this module instruct newer browsers to protect against cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This is done using an HTTP header (X-XSS-Protection). More information on this header can be found on the Mozilla Developer Network site. To disable this feature, add the following to your YML configuration:

CWP\Core\Control\InitialisationMiddleware:
  xss_protection_enabled: false

Egress Proxy settings

An egress proxy is enabled for all external requests made by Silverstripe CMS sites running on Silverstripe Cloud CCL. This means that by default, all HTTP requests made using curl or PHP's stream functions are routed via a proxy. In some cases this may not be desired (e.g. if you wish to communicate with localhost). By default, there are two exceptions to this proxy: services.cwp.govt.nz and localhost. These cover all standard platform use cases (e.g. searching via Solr).

You can disable the egress proxy entirely by adding the following YML configuration:

CWP\Core\Control\InitialisationMiddleware:
  egress_proxy_default_enabled: false

You can also add to the list of domains to disable the proxy by adding the following YML configuration:

CWP\Core\Control\InitialisationMiddleware:
  egress_proxy_exclude_domains:
    - example.com
