coi-serviceworker

Cross-origin isolation (COOP and COEP) through a service worker for situations in which you can't control the headers (e.g. GH pages).

Usage

1. Download coi-serviceworker.js (or coi-serviceworker.min.js).
2. Put it next to your index file (or in any folder above it)
3. Add to your HTML file:

   <script src="coi-serviceworker.js"></script>
   

This script will reload the page on the user's first load to magically add the required COOP and COEP headers in a service worker.

Rules:

• It must be in a separate file, you can't bundle it along with your app.
• It can't be loaded from a CDN: it must be served from your own origin.
• Your page will still need to be either served from HTTPS, or served from localhost.

Extra credits: download from NPM

You can install this package from npm:

npm i --save coi-serviceworker

You will still have to tell your bundler to put the file alongside your bundle. Something like this will do the trick:

cp node_modules/coi-serviceworker/coi-serviceworker.js dist/

Customization

You can customize the behavior by defining a variable coi in the global scope (i.e. on the window object):

window.coi = {
    // A function that is run to decide whether to register the SW or not.
    // You could for instance make this return a value based on whether you actually need to be cross origin isolated or not.
    // Using "!reloadedBySelf" you can avoid infinite loops of reloading.
    shouldRegister: () => !reloadedBySelf,
    // If this function returns true, any existing service worker will be deregistered (and nothing else will happen).
    shouldDeregister: () => false,
    // A function that is run to decide whether to use "Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy: credentialless" or not.
    // See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy#browser_compatibility
    coepCredentialless: () => true,
    // A function to decide whether to retry with require-corp if credentialless fails.
    coepDegrade: () => true,
    // Override this if you want to prompt the user and do reload at your own leisure. Maybe show the user a message saying:
    // "Click OK to refresh the page to enable <...>"
    // You can see window.sessionStorage.getItem("coiReloadedBySelf") for the reason to reload.
    doReload: () => window.location.reload(),
    // Set to true if you don't want coi to log anything to the console.
    quiet: false
}
