This package offers bindings of the Web Workers (Dedicated, Shared & Service) APIs.

DISCLAIMER This package is still highly experimental. Do not hesitate to fill in an issue if you encounter any trouble. Any feedback is welcome!

TODO

The examples contains few examples of the Service Worker Cookbook translated to PureScript. This is still work-in-progress and still relies on the sources provided by Mozilla included as a submodule.

Therefore,

commands are written as if you were running them from the root of the repository

1. Make sure the submodule is installed

git submodule init
git submodule update

2. Install dependencies of the Service Worker Cookbook

cd examples/serviceworker-cookbook
npm i

3. Install dependencies of an example

cd examples/cache-and-update
npm i

4. Compile the example's PureScript sources

cd examples/cache-and-update
npm run build

5. Start the Service Worker Cookbook server

cd examples/serviceworker-cookbook
gulp start-server

If the server doesn't start because you don't have any GCM API Key, you can simply remove all the push-* examples from there and try again.

6. Visit your localhost on port 3003

firefox http://localhost:3003/strategy-cache-and-update_demo.html
