Types

cache

Provides a storage mechanism for Request / Response object pairs that are cached, for example as part of the ServiceWorker life cycle. Note that the Cache interface is exposed to windowed scopes as well as workers. You don't have to use it in conjunction with service workers, even though it is defined in the service worker spec. See Cache on MDN

type cache = {}

cacheQueryOptions

type cacheQueryOptions = {
  mutable ignoreSearch?: bool,
  mutable ignoreMethod?: bool,
  mutable ignoreVary?: bool,
}

Record fields

ignoreSearch

option< bool >

ignoreMethod

option< bool >

ignoreVary

option< bool >

cacheStorage

The storage for Cache objects. See CacheStorage on MDN

type cacheStorage = {}

Module

There are methods and helpers defined in CacheStorage .

multiCacheQueryOptions

type multiCacheQueryOptions = {
  mutable ignoreSearch?: bool,
  mutable ignoreMethod?: bool,
  mutable ignoreVary?: bool,
  mutable cacheName?: string,
}

Record fields

ignoreSearch

option< bool >

ignoreMethod

cacheName

sharedWorker

type sharedWorker

Module

There are methods and helpers defined in SharedWorker .

sharedWorkerGlobalScope

The SharedWorkerGlobalScope object (the SharedWorker global scope) is accessible through the self keyword. Some additional global functions, namespaces objects, and constructors, not typically associated with the worker global scope, but available on it, are listed in the JavaScript Reference. See the complete list of functions available to workers.

type sharedWorkerGlobalScope = {
  caches: cacheStorage,
  crossOriginIsolated: bool,
  name: option<string>,
}

workerGlobalScope

The WorkerGlobalScope interface of the Web Workers API is an interface representing the scope of any worker. Workers have no browsing context; this scope contains the information usually conveyed by Window objects — in this case event handlers, the console or the associated WorkerNavigator object. Each WorkerGlobalScope has its own event loop. See WorkerGlobalScope on MDN

type workerGlobalScope = {
  caches: cacheStorage,
  crossOriginIsolated: bool,
}

workerOptions

An object containing option properties that can set when creating the object instance.

type workerOptions = {
  mutable type_?: workerType,
  mutable credentials?: WebAPI.FetchAPI.requestCredentials,
  mutable name?: string,
}
