/next-offline

make your Next.js application work offline using service workers

Primary LanguageJavaScript

next-offline

Use sw-precache with Next.js

Installation

npm install --save next-offline

or

yarn add next-offline

Usage

Create a next.config.js in your project

// next.config.js
const withOffline = require('next-offline')
module.exports = withOffline()

Then create a server.js

// server.js
const { createServer } = require('http')
const next = require('next')
const { join } = require('path')

const app = next({ dev: process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production' })
const handle = app.getRequestHandler()

app.prepare()
  .then(() => {
    createServer((req, res) => {
      const parsedUrl = parse(req.url, true)
      const { pathname } = parsedUrl

      if (pathname === '/service-worker.js') {
        const filePath = join(__dirname, '.next', pathname)
        app.serveStatic(req, res, filePath)
      } else {
        handle(req, res, parsedUrl)
      }
    })
    .listen(port, () => {
      console.log(`> Ready on http://localhost:${port}`)
    })
  })

Optionally you can add your custom Next.js configuration as parameter

// next.config.js
const withOffline = require('next-offline')

module.exports = withOffline({
  webpack(config, options) {
    return config
  }
})

Options

The default object passed to sw-precache-webpack-plugin is here:

{
  verbose: false,
  minify: true,
  staticFileGlobsIgnorePatterns: [/\.next\//],
  runtimeCaching: [
    {
      handler: 'networkFirst',
      urlPattern: /^https?.*/
    }
  ]
}

It can easily be modified by passing a swPreCacheOptions object to withOffline in your next.config.js

// next.config.js
const withOffline = require('next-offline')
module.exports = withOffline({
  swPreCacheOptions: {
    verbose: true,
    minify: false
  }
})

Custom Service worker register script

By default next-offline will register a service worker with the script below, this is automatically be add to your client side bundle once nextOffline is invoked.

if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
  navigator.serviceWorker
    .register('/service-worker.js')
    .then(registration => console.info('service worker registration successful'))
    .catch(err => console.warn('service worker registration failed', err.message))
}

You can pass in your own custom service worker register script by using the registerPath option like this:

// next.config.js
const withOffline = require('next-offline')
const { resolve } = require('path')

module.exports = withOffline({
  swPreCacheOptions: {
    registerPath: resolve(__dirname, 'my-service-worker.js')
  }
})
