Local development with none-localhost domain without HTTPS as "CONVEX_SITE_ORIGIN"?
For the locally hosted Convex backend, I use the domain
http://site.convex.local
instead of http://127.0.0.1:3211
for CONVEX_SITE_ORIGIN
during development.
Unfortunately, I get this error with npx convex dev
:
This error is thrown by this validation code:
https://github.com/get-convex/convex-backend/blob/main/crates/common/src/auth.rs#L208-L220
QUESTION 1 How can this be resolved so that not ONLY localhost
is supported as a domain for local development without HTTPS?
As a workaround, I can set the env variable like this CONVEX_SITE_ORIGIN=http://127.0.0.1:3211
.
QUESTION 2: But are there any side effects if I use http://site.convex.local
in the frontend?1 Reply
