Fetch

The Fetch API provides an interface for asynchronously fetching resources via HTTP requests inside of a Worker.

The fetch method is implemented on the ServiceWorkerGlobalScope. Refer to MDN documentation for more information.

​​ Constructor 


addEventListener('fetch', event => {
  // NOTE: can’t use fetch here, as we’re not in an async scope yet
  event.respondWith(eventHandler(event));

});



async function eventHandler(event) {
  // fetch can be awaited here since `event.respondWith()` waits for the Promise it receives to settle
  const resp = await fetch(event.request);
  return resp;

}

​​ Parameters
