/next-offline

make your Next.js application work offline using service workers via Google's workbox

Primary LanguageJavaScript

next-offline

Use Workbox with Next.js and easily enable offline functionality in your application.

Installation

$ npm install --save next-offline
$ 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, because we'll need to serve out service worker.

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

const app = next()
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(3000, () => {
      console.log(`> Ready on http://localhost:${3000}`)
    })
  })

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

If you want to customize your generated service worker, define a workboxOpts object in your next.config.js and it will gets passed to workbox-webpack-plugin

By default next-offline has the following blanket runtime caching strategy. If you customize next-offline with workboxOpts, the default behaviour will not be passed into workbox-webpack-plugin

{ urlPattern: /^https?.*/, handler: 'networkFirst' } // default cache strategy
// next.config.js
const withOffline = require('next-offline')

module.exports = withOffline({
  workboxOpts: {
    runtimeCaching: [
      {
        urlPattern: /.png$/,
        handler: 'cacheFirst'
      },
      {
        urlPattern: /api/,
        handler: 'networkFirst',
        options: {
          cacheableResponse: {
            statuses: [0, 200],
            headers: {
              'x-test': 'true'
            }
          }
        }
      }
    ]
  }
})

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

if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
  window.addEventListener('load', () => {
    navigator.serviceWorker.register('/service-worker.js').then(registration => {
      console.log('SW registered: ', registration)
    }).catch(registrationError => {
      console.log('SW registration failed: ', registrationError)
    })
  })
}

This behavior can be disabled by passing in dontAutoRegisterSw: true to top level config object.
