<p><span class="seoSummary">This is the event type for <code>fetch</code> events dispatched on the {{domxref("ServiceWorkerGlobalScope", "service worker global scope", "", 1)}}. It contains information about the fetch, including the request and how the receiver will treat the response. It provides the {{domxref("FetchEvent.respondWith", "event.respondWith()")}} method, which allows us to provide a response to this fetch.</span></p>
<h2 id="Constructor">Constructor</h2>
<dl>
<dt>{{domxref("FetchEvent.FetchEvent()", "FetchEvent()")}}</dt>
<dd>Creates a new <code>FetchEvent</code> object. This constructor is not typically used. The browser creates these objects itself and provides them to <code>fetch</code> event callbacks.</dd>
</dl>

<p><em>Inherits properties from its ancestor, {{domxref("Event")}}</em>.</p>

<h2 id="Methods">Methods</h2>

<dl>
<dt>{{domxref("fetchEvent.respondWith()")}}</dt>
<dd>Prevent the browser's default fetch handling, and provide (a promise for) a response yourself.</dd>
<dt>{{domxref("extendableEvent.waitUntil()")}}</dt>
<dd>
<p>Extends the lifetime of the event. Used to notify the browser of tasks that extend beyond the returning of a response, such as streaming and caching.</p>
</dd>
</dl>
<h2 id="Examples">Examples</h2>
<p>This fetch event uses the browser default for non-GET requests. For GET requests it tries to return a match in the cache, and falls back to the network. If it finds a match in the cache, it asynchronously updates the cache for next time.</p>
<pre class="brush: js">addEventListener('fetch', event => {
// Let the browser do its default thing
// for non-GET requests.
if (event.request.method != 'GET') return;
// Prevent the default, and handle the request ourselves.
event.respondWith(async function() {
// Try to get the response from a cache.
const cache = await caches.open('dynamic-v1');
const cachedResponse = await cache.match(event.request);
if (cachedResponse) {
// If we found a match in the cache, return it, but also
// update the entry in the cache in the background.
event.waitUntil(cache.add(event.request));
return cachedResponse;
}
// If we didn't find a match in the cache, use the network.
return fetch(event.request);
