The getState() method of the NavigationPreloadManager interface returns a Promise that resolves to an object with properties that indicate whether preload is enabled and what value will be sent in the Service-Worker-Navigation-Preload HTTP header.

Syntax

getState()

Parameters

None.

Return value

A Promise that resolves with an object that has the following properties:

  • enabled
    • : true if preloading is enabled, and false otherwise.
  • headerValue
    • : A string containing the value that will be sent in the Service-Worker-Navigation-Preload HTTP header following a preloading fetch(). This defaults to true unless the value was changed using setHeaderValue().

Examples

The code below shows a request for the current state, made once the service worker is ready.

navigator.serviceWorker.ready
  .then((registration) => registration.navigationPreload.getState())
  .then((state) => {
    console.log(state.enabled); // boolean
    console.log(state.headerValue); // string
  })
  .catch((e) =>
    console.error(`NavigationPreloadManager not supported: ${e.message}`),
  );
