    Hey, I’m wondering how i could provide a nonce in a <script> – Tag.

    Basically i’m enqueuing the api.js for Google reCaptcha with wp_enqueue_script but for the CSP on my server i need something like <script nonce="blablabla">. How can i acomplish that with wp_enqueue_script?

    Thanks in advance!

    There is more information about this here too.

    Hope this helps.

    Hey, unfortunately it didn’t really help me.
    wp_localize_script allows me, as i understood it, to pass variables from php to js.
    But i actually really just need a hook or function or whatever that enqueues a js script in the proper way and outputs it like <script nonce="herecomesthenonce" src="source"></script> but so far i wasn’t able to get the nonce in there..

    I actually found a quite simple way to do this.
    It’s possible via the “script_loader_tag” hook and a filter function.

    The following code adds a nonce attribute, generated with the handle, to every enqueued script.

    /** Add Nonce Attribute To Javascript **/

function add_nonce_attr( $tag, $handle, $src ) {
		
	return '<script type="text/javascript" nonce="'.wp_create_nonce( $handle ).'" src="'.$src.'"></script>'."\n";
		
}

add_filter( 'script_loader_tag', 'add_nonce_attr', 10, 3 );

    Note: the “script_loader_tag” hook is only available since Version 4.1.0

    @ropaeh, thanks for that function! Can I ask how you inserted the nonces into your CSP from here?

    Thanks!

    @jamesspi sure!

    That’s the next problem i’m facing right now. Because the wp_create_nonce() function depends on the time of the day, it changes every now and then. I’m thinking of writing all generated nonces in an array and adding them to the CSP via php’s header function. But i haven’t tried it so far.
