- Custom offline page
- Custom 404 page
- Cache blacklist rules for resources that always comes from network
- Individual TTL settings for different file extensions for a rolling cache refresh respecting offline-first
- Easy to customize for your specific needs
- Cleanup legacy cache on update
- Automatic Caching of relative content defined with
<link rel='index|next|prev|prefetch'>
Simply copy sw.js in your root directory:
# simple wget-snippet or do it manually
# cd /your-projects-root-directory/
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wildhaber/offline-first-sw/master/sw.jsand launch the Service Worker with the following snippet:
<script>
if('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
/**
* Define if <link rel='next|prev|prefetch'> should
* be preloaded when accessing this page
*/
const PREFETCH = true;
/**
* Define which link-rel's should be preloaded if enabled.
*/
const PREFETCH_LINK_RELS = ['index','next', 'prev', 'prefetch'];
/**
* prefetchCache
*/
function prefetchCache() {
if(navigator.serviceWorker.controller) {
let links = document.querySelectorAll(
PREFETCH_LINK_RELS.map((rel) => {
return 'link[rel='+rel+']';
}).join(',')
);
if(links.length > 0) {
Array.from(links)
.map((link) => {
let href = link.getAttribute('href');
navigator.serviceWorker.controller.postMessage({
action : 'cache',
url : href,
});
});
}
}
}
/**
* Register Service Worker
*/
navigator.serviceWorker
.register('/sw.js', { scope: '/' })
.then(() => {
console.log('Service Worker Registered');
});
/**
* Wait if ServiceWorker is ready
*/
navigator.serviceWorker
.ready
.then(() => {
if(PREFETCH) {
prefetchCache();
}
});
}
</script>For AMP-Pages use:
<script async custom-element="amp-install-serviceworker" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-install-serviceworker-0.1.js"></script><amp-install-serviceworker

The manifest is an important part but not required. Read more about manifest.json on Google Developers.
Copy the manifest.json into your root directory and link it within your markup.
# simple wget-snippet or do it manually
# cd /your-projects-root-directory/
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wildhaber/offline-first-sw/master/manifest.jsonAnd create the following link-snippet within your page's <head>-Section:
<link rel="manifest" href="/manifest.json">const CACHE_VERSION = 1;The CACHE_VERSION is important when you update your service-worker. The cache-location will be updated and the old legacy cache is getting deleted.
const BASE_CACHE_FILES = [

'/script.js',
'/search.json',
'/manifest.json',

];Define files that in this list which always needs to be cached from the beginning.
const OFFLINE_CACHE_FILES = [

];Define files necessary for your offline page.
const NOT_FOUND_CACHE_FILES = [

'/script.js',
'/404.html',
];Define files necessary for your 404 page.
const OFFLINE_PAGE = '/offline/index.html';Deliver this page when the user is offline and the page is not cached already.
const NOT_FOUND_PAGE = '/404.html';Deliver this page when the user lands on a page with Status-Code >= 400.
const MAX_TTL = {

html: 3600,
json: 86400,
js: 86400,
css: 86400,
};This is a key-value mapping file extensions with a certain maximal time-to-live (in seconds not milliseconds). This is how long the chache will be active until the page is getting refreshed from the network.
Not specified extensions with stay cached until a SW-Update.
// 60 = 1 minute
// 3600 = 1 hour
// 86400 = 1 day

];This is a list of functions a URL gets checked against if it should be cached or not. If one method returns true this resource will not be cached.
const SUPPORTED_METHODS = [
