Extensible runtime module resolution
divmain opened this issue · 0 comments
Plugins should be able to register "module providers". When a request occurs for an uninstalled module (identified by hash), the default behavior is to check the URLs hash and make a request for that script.
However, if a provider is registered, that provider will be called with two arguments, the moduleHash
and the next
callback. moduleHash
is the hash string of the requested module. The next
callback should be invoked by the provider if that provider is unable to fulfill the request. This next
callback will invoke the next provider (if there is one), ultimately terminating with the default behavior (or an error, if that fails).
Providers should be invoked in order of their registration.
This should lead the way to caching mechanisms (like localStorage
and IndexedDb
) and a patch mechanism (to be implemented in interlock-patch).
