Why service-worker does not cache js file

Question

SW caches an image file, but not JS (size 0 bytes)


    /*serviceWorker*/
    if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) {
        navigator.serviceWorker
            .register('service-worker.js', { scope: '/' })
            .then(function(registration) {
                console.log("Service Worker Registered");
            })
            .catch(function(err) {
                console.log("Service Worker Failed to Register", err);
            })

    };

    const CACHE = 'cache-only-v1';
    const timeout = 400;

    self.addEventListener('install', (event) => {
        event.waitUntil(
        caches.open(CACHE).then((cache) => {
            return cache.addAll([
                '/sys/Raycaster/3d.js',
                '/sys/js/popmotion.global.min.js',

Information displayed in chrome DevTools are based on Response Headers and sometimes, it doesn't reflect reality. Your js files are cached but it doesn't have a Content-Lenght in it's Headers.

to test it you can do :

caches.open(CACHES)
.then( cache => cache.match('/sys/js/popmotion.global.min.js'))
.then( res =>res.text())
.then( js => console.log(js))

This code will check in your caches for popmotion.global.min.js, and display it's content.
