and returns its value.
var serviceWorker; if (registration.installing) { serviceWorker = registration.installing; document.querySelector('#kind').textContent = 'installing'; } else if (registration.waiting) { serviceWorker = registration.waiting; document.querySelector('#kind').textContent = 'waiting'; } else if (registration.active) { serviceWorker = registration.active; document.querySelector('#kind').textContent = 'active'; } if (serviceWorker) { logState(serviceWorker.state); serviceWorker.addEventListener('statechange', function(e) { logState(e.target.state); }); }
