This plugin is intended to provide an offline experience for **webpack** projects. It uses **ServiceWorker**, and **AppCache** as a fallback under the hood. Simply include this plugin in your ``webpack.config``, and the accompanying runtime in your client script, and your project will become offline ready by caching all (or some) of the webpack output assets.

If you are looking for the original `v5` from <a href="https://github.com/NekR/offline-plugin" alt="original-offline-plugin">NekR offline-plugin</a> we have stored it on <a href="https://github.com/LeComptoirDesPharmacies/offline-plugin/tree/v5">v5 branch</a>.

## Install

`npm install @lcdp/offline-plugin [--save-dev]`

## Setup

First, instantiate the plugin in your `webpack.config`:

```js
// webpack.config.js example

var OfflinePlugin = require('@lcdp/offline-plugin');

module.exports = {
  // ...

  plugins: [
    // ... other plugins
    // it's always better if OfflinePlugin is the last plugin added
    new OfflinePlugin()
  ]
  // ...
}
```
_(and optionally configure with [options](docs/options.md))_  

Then, add the [runtime](docs/runtime.md) into your entry file (typically main entry):

```js
require('@lcdp/offline-plugin/runtime').install();
```

ES6/Babel/TypeScript
```js
import * as OfflinePluginRuntime from '@lcdp/offline-plugin/runtime';
OfflinePluginRuntime.install();
```

> For more details of usage with `TypeScript` see [here](docs/typescript.md)
