Conditional response

Return a response based on the incoming request's URL, HTTP method, User Agent, IP address, ASN or device type.

async fetch(request) {

// Return a new Response based on a URL's hostname
const url = new URL(request.url);

}

const forbiddenExtRegExp = new RegExp(/\.(doc|xml)$/);
if (forbiddenExtRegExp.test(url.pathname)) {
return new Response("Blocked Extension", { status: 403 });
}
// On HTTP method
if (request.method === "POST") {
return new Response("Response for POST");
}
// On User Agent
const userAgent = request.headers.get("User-Agent") || "";
if (userAgent.includes("bot")) {
