In my index.html
in my flutter web app, I have a serviceWorker script. Flutter now complaints like this:
[ +3 ms] Warning: In index.html:60: Local variable for "serviceWorkerVersion" is deprecated. Use "{{flutter_service_worker_version}}" template token instead.
The <body>
of the index.html
is defined like this:
<body>
<img src="img/logo_symbol.png" class="center"/>
<script>
var serviceWorkerVersion = null;
var scriptLoaded = false;
function loadMainDartJs() {
if (scriptLoaded) {
return;
}
scriptLoaded = true;
var scriptTag = document.createElement('script');
scriptTag.src = 'main.dart.js';
scriptTag.type = 'application/javascript';
document.body.append(scriptTag);
}
if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
// Service workers are supported. Use them.
window.addEventListener('load', function () {
// Wait for registration to finish before dropping the <script> tag.
// Otherwise, the browser will load the script multiple times,
// potentially different versions.
var serviceWorkerUrl = 'flutter_service_worker.js?v=' + serviceWorkerVersion;
navigator.serviceWorker.register(serviceWorkerUrl)
.then((reg) => {
function waitForActivation(serviceWorker) {
serviceWorker.addEventListener('statechange', () => {
if (serviceWorker.state == 'activated') {
console.log('Installed new service worker.');
loadMainDartJs();
}
});
}
if (!reg.active && (reg.installing || reg.waiting)) {
// No active web worker and we have installed or are installing
// one for the first time. Simply wait for it to activate.
waitForActivation(reg.installing || reg.waiting);
} else if (!reg.active.scriptURL.endsWith(serviceWorkerVersion)) {
// When the app updates the serviceWorkerVersion changes, so we
// need to ask the service worker to update.
console.log('New service worker available.');
reg.update();
waitForActivation(reg.installing);
} else {
// Existing service worker is still good.
console.log('Loading app from service worker.');
loadMainDartJs();
}
});
// If service worker doesn't succeed in a reasonable amount of time,
// fallback to plaint <script> tag.
setTimeout(() => {
if (!scriptLoaded) {
console.warn(
'Failed to load app from service worker. Falling back to plain <script> tag.',
);
loadMainDartJs();
}
}, 4000);
});
} else {
// Service workers not supported. Just drop the <script> tag.
loadMainDartJs();
}
</script>
</body>
How do I replace serviceWorkerVersion
with a {{flutter_service_worker_version}}
template instead, as the warning suggests ?
index.html
content might change on Flutter updates, so the best thing I did was creating a brand new flutter project and just copy the generated index.html
to my project and voilá. All working fine again.
This is what I got with Flutter version 3.22.0 I added a couple of scripts I needed though.
