ServiceWorkerRegistration.active

This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The active property of the ServiceWorkerRegistration interface returns a service worker whose ServiceWorker.state is activating or activated. This property is initially set to null.

An active worker controls a ServiceWorkerClient if the client's URL falls within the scope of the registration (the scope option set when ServiceWorkerContainer.register is first called.)

Note: This feature is available in Web Workers.

Syntax

sw = ServiceWorker.active 

Value

A ServiceWorker object, if it is currently in an activating or activated state.
