ServiceWorkerGlobalScope - Web APIs | MDN (original) (raw)
Instance properties
This interface inherits properties from the WorkerGlobalScope interface, and its parent EventTarget.
ServiceWorkerGlobalScope.clients Read only
Contains the Clients object associated with the service worker.
ServiceWorkerGlobalScope.cookieStore Read only
Returns a reference to the CookieStore object associated with the service worker.
ServiceWorkerGlobalScope.registration Read only
Contains the ServiceWorkerRegistration object that represents the service worker's registration.
ServiceWorkerGlobalScope.serviceWorker Read only
Contains the ServiceWorker object that represents the service worker.
Instance methods
This interface inherits methods from the WorkerGlobalScope interface, and its parent EventTarget.
ServiceWorkerGlobalScope.skipWaiting()
Allows the current service worker registration to progress from waiting to active state while service worker clients are using it.
Events
Listen to this event using addEventListener() or by assigning an event listener to the oneventname property of this interface.
Occurs when a ServiceWorkerRegistration acquires a new ServiceWorkerRegistration.active worker.
backgroundfetchabort Experimental
Fired when a background fetch operation has been canceled by the user or the app.
backgroundfetchclick Experimental
Fired when the user has clicked on the UI for a background fetch operation.
backgroundfetchfail Experimental
Fired when at least one of the requests in a background fetch operation has failed.
backgroundfetchsuccess Experimental
Fired when all of the requests in a background fetch operation have succeeded.
canmakepayment Experimental
Fired on a payment app's service worker to check whether it is ready to handle a payment. Specifically, it is fired when the merchant website calls the PaymentRequest() constructor.
contentdelete Experimental
Occurs when an item is removed from the ContentIndex.
Fired when a cookie change has occurred that matches the service worker's cookie change subscription list.
Occurs when a fetch() is called.
Occurs when a ServiceWorkerRegistration acquires a new ServiceWorkerRegistration.installing worker.
Occurs when incoming messages are received. Controlled pages can use the MessagePort.postMessage() method to send messages to service workers.
Occurs when incoming messages can't be deserialized.
Occurs when a user clicks on a displayed notification.
Occurs when a user closes a displayed notification.
paymentrequest Experimental
Fired on a payment app when a payment flow has been initiated on the merchant website via the PaymentRequest.show() method.
Triggered when a call to SyncManager.register is made from a service worker client page. The attempt to sync is made either immediately if the network is available or as soon as the network becomes available.
periodicsync Experimental
Occurs at periodic intervals, which were specified when registering a PeriodicSyncManager.
Occurs when a server push notification is received.
Occurs when a push subscription has been invalidated, or is about to be invalidated (e.g., when a push service sets an expiration time).
Examples
This code snippet is from the service worker prefetch sample (see prefetch example live.) The onfetch event handler listens for the fetch event. When fired, the code returns a promise that resolves to the first matching request in the Cache object. If no match is found, the code fetches a response from the network.
The code also handles exceptions thrown from the fetch() operation. Note that an HTTP error response (e.g., 404) will not trigger an exception. It will return a normal response object that has the appropriate error code set.
self.addEventListener("fetch", (event) => {
console.log("Handling fetch event for", event.request.url);
event.respondWith(
caches.match(event.request).then((response) => {
if (response) {
console.log("Found response in cache:", response);
return response;
}
console.log("No response found in cache. About to fetch from network…");
return fetch(event.request).then(
(response) => {
console.log("Response from network is:", response);
return response;
},
(error) => {
console.error("Fetching failed:", error);
throw error;
},
);
}),
);
});
