Extends the lifetime of the install and activate events dispatched on the global scope as part of the service worker lifecycle. This ensures that any functional events (like FetchEvent) are not dispatched until it upgrades database schemas and deletes the outdated cache entries.

Accessors

  • get bubbles(): boolean
  • Returns true or false depending on how event was initialized. True if event goes through its target's ancestors in reverse tree order, and false otherwise.

    MDN Reference

    Returns boolean

  • get cancelable(): boolean
  • Returns true or false depending on how event was initialized. Its return value does not always carry meaning, but true can indicate that part of the operation during which event was dispatched, can be canceled by invoking the preventDefault() method.

    MDN Reference

    Returns boolean

  • get cancelBubble(): boolean
  • Returns boolean

    MDN Reference

  • set cancelBubble(value): void
  • Parameters

    • value: boolean

    Returns void

    MDN Reference

  • get composed(): boolean
  • Returns true or false depending on how event was initialized. True if event invokes listeners past a ShadowRoot node that is the root of its target, and false otherwise.

    MDN Reference

    Returns boolean

  • get currentTarget(): undefined | EventTarget<Record<string, Event>>
  • Returns the object whose event listener's callback is currently being invoked.

    MDN Reference

    Returns undefined | EventTarget<Record<string, Event>>

  • get defaultPrevented(): boolean
  • Returns true if preventDefault() was invoked successfully to indicate cancelation, and false otherwise.

    MDN Reference

    Returns boolean

  • get eventPhase(): number
  • Returns the event's phase, which is one of NONE, CAPTURING_PHASE, AT_TARGET, and BUBBLING_PHASE.

    MDN Reference

    Returns number

  • get isTrusted(): boolean
  • Returns true if event was dispatched by the user agent, and false otherwise.

    MDN Reference

    Returns boolean

  • get returnValue(): boolean
  • Returns boolean

    MDN Reference

  • get timeStamp(): number
  • Returns the event's timestamp as the number of milliseconds measured relative to the time origin.

    MDN Reference

    Returns number

  • get type(): string
  • Returns the type of event, e.g. "click", "hashchange", or "submit".

    MDN Reference

    Returns string

Methods

  • Returns the invocation target objects of event's path (objects on which listeners will be invoked), except for any nodes in shadow trees of which the shadow root's mode is "closed" that are not reachable from event's currentTarget.

    MDN Reference

    Returns EventTarget<Record<string, Event>>[]

  • If invoked when the cancelable attribute value is true, and while executing a listener for the event with passive set to false, signals to the operation that caused event to be dispatched that it needs to be canceled.

    MDN Reference

    Returns void

  • Invoking this method prevents event from reaching any registered event listeners after the current one finishes running and, when dispatched in a tree, also prevents event from reaching any other objects.

    MDN Reference

    Returns void

  • When dispatched in a tree, invoking this method prevents event from reaching any objects other than the current object.

    MDN Reference

    Returns void

  • Parameters

    • promise: Promise<any>

    Returns void
