 You can configure it by passing an option struct to cors.New:
 
-    c := cors.New(cors.Options{
-        AllowedOrigins:   []string{"foo.com"},
-        AllowedMethods:   []string{http.MethodGet, http.MethodPost, http.MethodDelete},
-        AllowCredentials: true,
-    })
+	c := cors.New(cors.Options{
+	    AllowedOrigins:   []string{"foo.com"},
+	    AllowedMethods:   []string{http.MethodGet, http.MethodPost, http.MethodDelete},
+	    AllowCredentials: true,
+	})
 
 Then insert the handler in the chain:
 
-    handler = c.Handler(handler)
+	handler = c.Handler(handler)
 
 See Options documentation for more options.
