Setting service worker to exclude certain urls only

Question

I built an app using create react which by default includes a service worker. I want the app to be run anytime someone enters the given url except when they go to /blog/, wh

Answer 1

here's whats working for us in the latest CRA version:

// serviceWorker.js

window.addEventListener('load', () => {
  if (isAdminRoute()) {
    console.info('unregistering service worker for admin route')
    unregister()
    console.info('reloading')
    window.location.reload()
    return false
  }

we exclude all routes under /admin from the server worker, since we are using a different app for our admin area. you can change it of course for anything you like, here's our function in the bottom of the file:

function isAdminRoute() {
  return window.location.pathname.startsWith('/admin')
}
