Cache: keys() method

The keys() method of the Cache interface returns a Promise that resolves to an array of Request objects representing the keys of the Cache.

The requests are returned in the same order that they were inserted.

Note: Requests with duplicate URLs but different headers can be returned if their responses have the VARY header set on them.

Syntax

js

keys()
keys(request)
keys(request, options)

Parameters

request Optional

The Request want to return, if a specific key is desired. This can be a Request object or a URL.

options Optional

An object whose properties control how matching is done in the keys operation. The available options are:

ignoreSearch

A boolean value that specifies whether the matching process should ignore the query string in the URL. If set to true, the ?value=bar part of http://foo.com/?value=bar would be ignored when performing a match. It defaults to false.

ignoreMethod

A boolean value that, when set to true, prevents matching operations from validating the Request HTTP method (normally only GET and HEAD are allowed.) It defaults to false.

ignoreVary

A boolean value that, when set to true, tells the matching operation not to perform VARY header matching. In other words, if the URL matches you will get a match regardless of whether the Response object has a VARY header. It defaults to false.

cacheName

A string that represents a specific cache to search within. Note that this option is ignored by Cache.keys().

Return value

A Promise that resolves to an array of Request objects.

Examples

js

caches.open("v1").then((cache) => {
  cache.keys().then((keys) => {
    keys.forEach((request, index, array) => {
      cache.delete(request);
    });
  });
});
