This is an experimental technology
Because this technology's specification has not stabilized, check the compatibility table for usage in various browsers. Also note that the syntax and behavior of an experimental technology is subject to change in future versions of browsers as the specification changes.

The Client interface of the ServiceWorker API represents the scope of a service worker client. A service worker client is either a document in a browser context or a SharedWorker, which is controlled by an active worker. A client object acts as a snapshot representation of its associated service worker client in the scope of a service worker.

Methods

Client.postMessage()
Allows a service worker to send a message to a ServiceWorkerClient.

Properties

Client.frameType Read only
Indicates the type of browsing context of the current client. This value can be one of auxiliarytop-levelnested, or none.
Client.id Read only
Returns the universally unique identifier of the Client object.
Client.url Read only
The URL of the current service worker client.

Examples

This code is based on a snippet taken from the service worker post-message sample (see post-message live.) The code sends message data to which the service worker can reply via Client.postMessage().

The message is wrapped in a promise that resolves if the response doesn't contain an error and rejects with the error.

// service worker client (e.g. a document)
function sendMessage(message) {
  return new Promise(function(resolve, reject) {
    // note that this is the ServiceWorker.postMessage version
    navigator.serviceWorker.controller.postMessage(message);
    window.serviceWorker.onMessage = function(e) {
      resolve(e.data);
    };
  });
}

// controlling service worker
self.addEventListener("message", function(e) {
  // e.source is a client object
  e.source.postMessage("Hello! Your message was: " + e.data);
});
