Clients - Web APIs 编辑

The Clients interface provides access to Client objects. Access it via self.clients within a service worker.

Methods

Clients.get()

Returns a Promise for a Client matching a given id.

Clients.matchAll()

Returns a Promise for an array of Client objects. An options argument allows you to control the types of clients returned. 

Clients.openWindow()

Opens a new browser window for a given url and returns a Promise for the new WindowClient.

Clients.claim()

Allows an active service worker to set itself as the controller for all clients within its scope. 

Examples

The following example shows an existing chat window or creates a new one when the user clicks a notification.

addEventListener('notificationclick', event => {
  event.waitUntil(async function() {
    const allClients = await clients.matchAll({
      includeUncontrolled: true
    });

    let chatClient;

    // Let's see if we already have a chat window open:
    for (const client of allClients) {
      const url = new URL(client.url);

      if (url.pathname == '/chat/') {
        // Excellent, let's use it!
        client.focus();
        chatClient = client;
        break;
      }
    }

    // If we didn't find an existing chat window,
    // open a new one:
    if (!chatClient) {
      chatClient = await clients.openWindow('/chat/');
    }

    // Message the client:
    chatClient.postMessage("New chat messages!");
  }());
});
