This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The addAll()
method of the Cache
interface takes an array of URLs, retrieves them, and adds the resulting response objects to the given cache. The request objects created during retrieval become keys to the stored response operations.
Note: addAll()
will overwrite any key/value pairs previously stored in the cache that match the request, but will fail if a resulting put()
operation would overwrite a previous cache entry created by the same addAll()
method.
Note: Initial Cache implementations (in both Blink and Gecko) resolve Cache.add
, Cache.addAll
, and Cache.put
promises when the response body is fully written to storage. More recent spec versions state that the browser can resolve the promise as soon as the entry is recorded in the database even if the response body is still streaming in.
Syntax
cache.addAll(requests[]).then(function() { // requests have been added to the cache });
Parameters
- requests
- An array of string URLs that you want to be fetched and added to the cache.
Return value
A Promise
that resolves with void.
Exceptions
Exception | Happens when |
---|---|
TypeError |
The URL scheme is not The Response status is not in the 200 range (i.e., not a successful response.) This occurs if the request does not return successfully, but also if the request is a cross-origin no-cors request (in which case the reported status is always 0.) |
Examples
This code block waits for an InstallEvent
to fire, then runs waitUntil()
to handle the install process for the app. This consists of calling CacheStorage.open
to create a new cache, then using addAll()
to add a series of assets to it.
this.addEventListener('install', function(event) { event.waitUntil( caches.open('v1').then(function(cache) { return cache.addAll([ '/sw-test/', '/sw-test/index.html', '/sw-test/style.css', '/sw-test/app.js', '/sw-test/image-list.js', '/sw-test/star-wars-logo.jpg', '/sw-test/gallery/', '/sw-test/gallery/bountyHunters.jpg', '/sw-test/gallery/myLittleVader.jpg', '/sw-test/gallery/snowTroopers.jpg' ]); }) ); });
