CacheStorage extension type

The CacheStorage interface represents the storage for Cache objects.

The interface:

  • Provides a master directory of all the named caches that can be accessed by a ServiceWorker or other type of worker or window scope (you're not limited to only using it with service workers).
  • Maintains a mapping of string names to corresponding Cache objects.

Use CacheStorage.open to obtain a Cache instance.

Use CacheStorage.match to check if a given Request is a key in any of the Cache objects that the CacheStorage object tracks.

You can access CacheStorage through the Window.caches property in windows or through the WorkerGlobalScope.caches property in workers.

Note: CacheStorage always rejects with a SecurityError on untrusted origins (i.e. those that aren't using HTTPS, although this definition will likely become more complex in the future.) When testing on Firefox, you can get around this by checking the Enable Service Workers over HTTP (when toolbox is open) option in the Firefox Devtools options/gear menu. Furthermore, because CacheStorage requires file-system access, it may be unavailable in private mode in Firefox.

Note: CacheStorage.match is a convenience method. Equivalent functionality to match a cache entry can be implemented by returning an array of cache names from CacheStorage.keys, opening each cache with CacheStorage.open, and matching the one you want with Cache.match.

Methods

add(JSAny? any) JSAny

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this + any in JavaScript.
and(JSAny? any) JSAny?

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this && any in JavaScript.
callMethod<R extends JSAny?>(JSAny method, [JSAny? arg1, JSAny? arg2, JSAny? arg3, JSAny? arg4]) → R

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Calls method on this JSObject with up to four arguments.
callMethodVarArgs<R extends JSAny?>(JSAny method, [List<JSAny?>? arguments]) → R

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Calls method on this JSObject with a variable number of arguments.
dartify() Object?

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyUtilityExtension extension

Converts a JavaScript value to the Dart equivalent if possible.
delete(JSAny property) JSBoolean

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Deletes the property with key property from this JSObject.
delete(String cacheName) JSPromise<JSBoolean>
The delete() method of the CacheStorage interface finds the Cache object matching the cacheName, and if found, deletes the Cache object and returns a Promise that resolves to true. If no Cache object is found, it resolves to false.
divide(JSAny? any) JSAny

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this / any in JavaScript.
equals(JSAny? any) JSBoolean

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this == any in JavaScript.
exponentiate(JSAny? any) JSAny

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this ** any in JavaScript.
getProperty<R extends JSAny?>(JSAny property) → R

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

The value of the property key property of this JSObject.
greaterThan(JSAny? any) JSBoolean

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this > any in JavaScript.
greaterThanOrEqualTo(JSAny? any) JSBoolean

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this >= any in JavaScript.
has(String property) bool

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Shorthand helper for hasProperty to check whether this JSObject contains the property key property, but takes and returns a Dart value.
has(String cacheName) JSPromise<JSBoolean>
The has() method of the CacheStorage interface returns a Promise that resolves to true if a Cache object matches the cacheName.
hasProperty(JSAny property) JSBoolean

Available on JSObject, provided by the JSObjectUnsafeUtilExtension extension

Whether or not this JSObject contains the property key property.
instanceof(JSFunction constructor) bool

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyUtilityExtension extension

Whether this JSAny? is an instanceof constructor.
instanceOfString(String constructorName) bool

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyUtilityExtension extension

Whether this JSAny? is an instanceof the constructor that is defined by constructorName, which is looked up in the globalContext.

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyUtilityExtension extension

Whether this JSAny? is an instance of the JavaScript type that is declared by T.
keys() JSPromise<JSArray<JSString>>
The keys() method of the CacheStorage interface returns a Promise that will resolve with an array containing strings corresponding to all of the named Cache objects tracked by the CacheStorage object in the order they were created. Use this method to iterate over a list of all Cache objects.

Available on JSAny?, provided by the JSAnyOperatorExtension extension

The result of this <= any in JavaScript.
match(RequestInfo request, [MultiCacheQueryOptions options]) JSPromise<Response?>
The match() method of the CacheStorage interface checks if a given Request or URL string is a key for a stored Response. This method returns a Promise for a Response, or a Promise which resolves to undefined if no match is found.
