Building an angular app with service-worker for using in sub-directory


Is there a way to build an angular app, so it works in multiple sub-directory like:

example.com/customerOne/  
example.com/customerTwo/  
example.com/customerThree/

If I just use ng build --prod the service-worker wants to fetch the files from example.com when the users is offline.

My index.html uses

<base href="./" />

ServiceWorkerModule is registered as follow:

    ServiceWorkerModule.register('./ngsw-worker.js', { enabled: environment.production  })

If possible I dont want to build for each customer, or use scope service worker.
Is it even possible?

Update

I tried now different configs for building:

ng build --prod --base-href ./ --deploy-url ./

it looks like it generates a ngsw.json file that should work?! but unfortunately when going offline it does not work.

any suggestions?


Solution

  • I stooped using @ngular/serviceworker because i couldn't make it running.

    Instead I'm using workbox.

    Config:

    module.exports = {
       globDirectory: 'www',
       globPatterns: ['**/*.{css,html,js,json,png,jpg,jpeg,svg,ico}'],
       swDest: 'www\\sw.js',
       swSrc: 'src\\sw.js',
       maximumFileSizeToCacheInBytes: 28 * 1024 * 1024
    };
    

    sw.js:

    importScripts('https://storage.googleapis.com/workbox-cdn/releases/4.3.1/workbox-sw.js');
    
    workbox.setConfig({
        debug: false
    });
    
    self.addEventListener('message', function (event) {
        if (event.data.action === 'skipWaiting') {
            self.skipWaiting();
        }
    });
    
    if (workbox) {
        console.log(`Yay! Workbox is loaded 🎉`);
    
        workbox.precaching.precacheAndRoute([]);
    } else {
        console.log(`Boo! Workbox didn't load 😬`);
    }
    

    and for building:

    workbox injectManifest
    

    this works out of the box
