TypeScript Code for Workers

The minimal expected code is a function exported as default that should return the result of the worker’s script execution.

For example:

export default async function MyFunction() {

   // Do what you want

   return {
       status: 'DOWNLOAD_PROCEED',
       message: 'proceed',
   }
}

To enhance the developer experience we have chosen to use TypeScript. The worker function takes two inputs, which are injected.

export default async function (context: PlatformContext, data: T)Promise<U> {

   // Do what you want

   return {
       status: 'DOWNLOAD_PROCEED',
       message: 'proceed',
   }
}

Where T and U types stand for the data type (for example, BeforeDownloadRequest) and the expected returned response (like BeforeDownloadResponse for BeforeDownloadRequest).

You can give a name to your function for convenience. You can also use anonymous functions instead.

The code editor also supports arrow functions. The samples provided in the documentation use arrow functions.
