Astro Worker
Astro Worker is a polyfill for using server-side Web Workers in Astro, powered by web-worker.
npm install @astropub/worker
Usage
Import @astropub/worker in your Astro configuration.
import worker from "@astropub/worker"
import { defineConfig } from "astro/config"
export default defineConfig({
integrations: [
worker(),
],
})
Creating a Worker
Create a worker in any Astro project.
---
/** @file /src/scripts/worker.ts */
addEventListener("message", (event) => {
console.log("client said:", event.data)
postMessage(event.data)
})
Using a Worker
Import the worker into Astro frontmatter.
---
/** @file /src/pages/index.astro */
const worker = new Worker("../scripts/worker.ts", { type: "module" })
worker.addEventListener("message", (event) => {
console.log("worker said:", event.data)
})
worker.postMessage("Hello")

<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<link rel="icon" type="image/svg+xml" href="/favicon.svg" />
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />
<meta name="generator" content={Astro.generator} />
<title>Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Example</h1>
</body>
</html>
Alternatively, import the worker into a client-side script.

<meta name="generator" content={Astro.generator} />
<title>Example</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Example</h1>
</body>
</html>
<script>
const worker = new Worker("../scripts/worker.ts", { type: "module" })
worker.addEventListener("message", (event) => {
console.log("worker said:", event.data)
})
worker.postMessage("Hello")
</script>
