A service worker helper library to manage common request and caching patterns
The workbox-recipes npm package provides pre-configured, common service worker strategies and behaviors for web applications using Workbox. It simplifies the implementation of caching, offline functionality, and other progressive web app (PWA) features.
Offline Page
This feature allows you to specify fallback pages or images when the network is unavailable. The code sample shows how to set up offline fallbacks for both pages and images.
import { offlineFallback } from 'workbox-recipes';
offlineFallback({
pageFallback: '/offline.html',
imageFallback: '/static/images/offline.jpg'
});
Static Resource Caching
Enables caching for static resources such as CSS and JavaScript files. The code sample demonstrates pre-caching specific URLs on service worker installation.
import { staticResourceCache } from 'workbox-recipes';
staticResourceCache({
warmupUrls: ['/styles/main.css', '/scripts/main.js']
});
Google Fonts Caching
Provides a simple method to cache Google Fonts used on your web pages, enhancing performance and reducing data usage.
import { googleFontsCache } from 'workbox-recipes';
googleFontsCache();
sw-toolbox offers various service worker tools for caching and managing requests similar to workbox-recipes. However, it is less modular and not actively maintained as Workbox, which includes workbox-recipes.
sw-precache is a tool for generating service worker code that precaches resources. It is similar to workbox-recipes in providing offline capabilities but does not offer as extensive configuration options or runtime caching strategies.
