sw_location()

Get the path or URL of the service worker JavaScript file.

PHP February 19, 2018

Usage

PHP
nebula()->sw_location($uri)

Parameters

$uri
(Optional) (Boolean) Return the full URL of the Service Worker file
Default: true

Parameter Notes

Passing false to $uri will return the path.

Request or provide clarification »

Additional Notes

The default filename for the Nebula service worker is sw.js and typical Nebula installation instructs for this file to be moved to the root directory. However, all of this can be overridden by using the pre_sw_location action (See below for full code snippet). If you intend on using an alternate filename or location, you must override this function in your child theme!

                if ( !empty($uri) ){
                    return get_site_url() . '/sw.js';
                }

    Override

    To override this PHP function, use this hook in your child theme or plugin ("my_custom" can be changed):

    PHP
    add_filter('pre_sw_location', 'my_custom_sw_location', 10, 2); //The last integer must be 1 more than the actual parameters
    function my_custom_sw_location($null, $uri){ //$null is required, but can be ignored
        //Write your own code here
    
        return true; //Return true to prevent the original function from running afterwords
    }

    You can completely disable this PHP function with a single line actions:

    PHP
     add_filter('pre_sw_location', '__return_false');
