Tracking adding writable streams to FF Service Workers #138

Open momack2 opened 5 years ago

Passing along feedback from @ianopolous on Peergos - they are using writable streams in service workers, which is enabled in Chrome + others but isn't yet enabled in FireFox. Curious if we're tracking this issue and at all engaged with the folks at Mozilla about adding this capability?

Readable streams only just got turned on by default in Firefox nightly last month, which means will ship in 65 (IIRC): https://twitter.com/dietrich/status/1060542343038885889

Writable streams just got assigned a few days ago, which is always a good sign: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1474543

However, I'm not sure that would mean either would be available in SW, so it would be worth stating your use-case for that on the bug. That way either it's covered there in the initial implementation, or a separate bug is filed to track the work and keep on the implementer's radar.

Thanks @autonome!

@ianopolous @cboddy @kevodwyer - can one of you take the lead on describing your use case on the bug here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1474543

Yep, I'm waiting to merge and deploy what I think are the last breaking changes this week, and then I can give a demo url.
