cache audio files?

[fytp]

Hi all, I have a question about the way caching audio files on html5 pages.

Is there any possibility to cache audio files on html5 pages, which the pages are html5 game pages. Just want to shorten the loading time on opening the html5 game, to improve the performance.

Thanks.

On chrome, you can use the FilesyStem to store any kind of (big) files.

But since it is Chrome only, you better use IndexedDB or some other standardized mechanism.

Or use a service worker with its cache API, which is already supported in Chrome and Firefox and coming to Edge (at least). I believe this is the recommended solution going forward.

Note that you cannot shorten the first load time using those mechanisms, obviously. You will have to schedule the most important files first and then the less used files by yourself.

The cache API is exposed to windows and workers, not just service workers (despite currently sharing a spec). You don't need a SW just to get access to the API.

 

It does require a secure context (i.e. HTTPS), though.
