# tower-helmet
this is still very **work in progress**
a port of the beautiful [helmet.js](https://github.com/helmetjs/helmet) in the javascript world.
`tower-helmet` helps you secure your tower server by setting various HTTP headers. _It's not a silver bullet_, but it can help!
You can find a list of all available headers under the [header] module. By default (with [HelmetLayer::default]) **all of them** are enabled.
Please take a good look at [ContentSecurityPolicy]. Most of the time you will need to adapt this one to your needs.
# Examples
```rust
use tower_helmet::header::{ContentSecurityPolicy, ExpectCt, XFrameOptions};
use tower_helmet::HelmetLayer;
// default layer with all security headers active
let layer = HelmetLayer::default();
// default layer with customizations applied
let mut directives = HashMap::new();
directives.insert("default-src", vec!["'self'", "https://example.com"]);
directives.insert("img-src", vec!["'self'", "data:", "https://example.com"]);
directives.insert("script-src", vec!["'self'", "'unsafe-inline'", "https://example.com"]);
let csp = ContentSecurityPolicy {
directives,
..Default::default()
};
let layer = HelmetLayer::default()
.disable_strict_transport_security()
.disable_cross_origin_embedder_policy()
.content_security_policy(csp);
// completely blank layer, selectively enable and add headers
let layer = HelmetLayer::new()
.x_frame_options(XFrameOptions::SameOrigin)
.expect_ct(ExpectCt::default());
```
