As part of the service worker API, a cache interface has been provided to manage cached request-response pairs. In working on the service worker for my site, I wanted to see what headers the cached requests and responses had, but due to the asynchronous way many of the cache properties are accessed, this was a bit verbose. I wrote out a script that I could paste in the JS console to look at all stored request-response pairs in a given cache so I could examine them:

caches.open('cache-name').then(function(_cache){ 
    _cache.keys().then(function(_keys){ 
        _keys.forEach(function(_request){
            var _requestLog = [];
            _requestLog.push(['request', _request.url, _request]); 
            _request.headers.forEach(function(){ 
                _requestLog.push(['request header', arguments]); 
            }); 
            _cache.match(_request).then(function(_response){ 
                _requestLog.push(['reponse', _response]); 
                _response.headers.forEach(function(){ 
                    _requestLog.push(['response header', arguments]); 
                }); 
            }).then(function(){
                _requestLog.forEach(function(_item){
                    console.log.apply(console, _item);
                });
            });
        });
    }); 
});

Replace cache-name with whatever key you’re using for your cache. Be warned that this will produce a long log if you’ve got more than a few items in the cache. You can also see just the requests you have a cache for with something like:

caches.open('cache-name').then(function(_cache){ 
    _cache.keys().then(function(_keys){ 
        _keys.forEach(function(_request){
            console.log(['request', _request.url, _request]); 
        });
    }); 
});
