PWA workbox background sync queue requests queue object accessibility

Question

Can we access the Workbox background sync queue object in outside service worker file, in any of my application files say index.php?

Answer 1

I believe you can use the BroadcastChannel API, something like this:

// From Service Worker, connect to the channel named "my_bus".
const channel = new BroadcastChannel('my_bus');
// Send a message on "my_bus".
channel.postMessage('This is a test message.');

// From client, listen for messages on "my_bus".
const channel = new BroadcastChannel('my_bus');
channel.onmessage = function(e) {
  console.log('Received', e.data);
};
