cef_scheme_options_t

Configuration options for registering a custom scheme. These values are used when calling AddCustomScheme.

Values

ValueMeaning
CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_NONE0
CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_STANDARD1 << 0

If CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_STANDARD is set the scheme will be treated as a standard scheme. Standard schemes are subject to URL canonicalization and parsing rules as defined in the Common Internet Scheme Syntax RFC 1738 Section 3.1 available at http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1738.txt In particular, the syntax for standard scheme URLs must be of the form: <pre> scheme://username:password@host:port/[url-path] </pre> Standard scheme URLs must have a host component that is a fully qualified domain name as defined in Section 3.5 of RFC 1034 [13] and Section 2.1 of RFC 1123. These URLs will be canonicalized to "scheme://host/path" in the simplest case and "scheme://username:password@host:port/path" in the most explicit case. For example, "scheme:host/path" and "scheme:///host/path" will both be canonicalized to "scheme://host/path". The origin of a standard scheme URL is the combination of scheme, host and port (i.e., "scheme://host:port" in the most explicit case). For non-standard scheme URLs only the "scheme:" component is parsed and canonicalized. The remainder of the URL will be passed to the handler as- is. For example, "scheme:///some%20text" will remain the same. Non-standard scheme URLs cannot be used as a target for form submission.

CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_LOCAL1 << 1

If CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_LOCAL is set the scheme will be treated with the same security rules as those applied to "file" URLs. Normal pages cannot link to or access local URLs. Also, by default, local URLs can only perform XMLHttpRequest calls to the same URL (origin + path) that originated the request. To allow XMLHttpRequest calls from a local URL to other URLs with the same origin set the CefSettings.file_access_from_file_urls_allowed value to true (1). To allow XMLHttpRequest calls from a local URL to all origins set the CefSettings.universal_access_from_file_urls_allowed value to true (1).

CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_DISPLAY_ISOLATED1 << 2

If CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_DISPLAY_ISOLATED is set the scheme can only be displayed from other content hosted with the same scheme. For example, pages in other origins cannot create iframes or hyperlinks to URLs with the scheme. For schemes that must be accessible from other schemes don't set this, set CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_CORS_ENABLED, and use CORS "Access-Control-Allow-Origin" headers to further restrict access.

CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_SECURE1 << 3

If CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_SECURE is set the scheme will be treated with the same security rules as those applied to "https" URLs. For example, loading this scheme from other secure schemes will not trigger mixed content warnings.

CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_CORS_ENABLED1 << 4

If CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_CORS_ENABLED is set the scheme can be sent CORS requests. This value should be set in most cases where CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_STANDARD is set.

CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_CSP_BYPASSING1 << 5

If CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_CSP_BYPASSING is set the scheme can bypass Content- Security-Policy (CSP) checks. This value should not be set in most cases where CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_STANDARD is set.

CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_FETCH_ENABLED1 << 6

If CEF_SCHEME_OPTION_FETCH_ENABLED is set the scheme can perform Fetch API requests.
