The read-only type
property of the WakeLockSentinel
interface returns a string representation of the currently acquired WakeLockSentinel
type.
A string representation of the currently acquired wake lock type. The type 'screen'` is a screen wake lock. It prevents devices from dimming or locking the screen.
This example shows an asynchronous function that acquires a WakeLockSentinel
, then logs the type to the console.
const requestWakeLock = async () => {
wakeLock = await navigator.wakeLock.request("screen");
console.log(wakeLock.type);
};
requestWakeLock();
