this is my first time working with service workers and I am having difficulties because I always get this error in the Network - Application - Manifest tab:
Some technical details:

Also, here is the project structure to check the path imports:
What am I missing? Also, what is the best way to test any config changes?
I found a solution regarding my issue, some small changes were required:
app.module
- adjusted the service worker registration
ServiceWorkerModule.register('ngsw-worker.js', {
enabled: environment.production,
// Register the ServiceWorker as soon as the app is stable
// or after 30 seconds (whichever comes first).
registrationStrategy: 'registerWhenStable:30000',
}),
In angular.json
if you have multiple builds for different environments, lets say production and qa, you can add these configs on both:
"serviceWorker": true,
"ngswConfigPath": "projects/appName/ngsw-config.json"
// or whichever path you have for the ngsw-config.json, but this will probably be generated automatically when installing @angular/pwa.
To test your changes, run ng build
or ng build --prod
or any other environments you want to test on.
To see the build for the prod environment I used http-server, which you can find in npm and install it. Your build will be created in a dist folder, and in the root folder of the app run(9191 being the port, you can change it to whatever you like, just make sure nothing runs on it):
http-server -p 9191 -c-1 dist/appName
You can open you 9191 localhost port and check in the Deveoper Tools, Application tab, under Manifest and Service Workers to make sure everything is running.
I also removed ngsw-worker.js from my project because it is moved automatically from node_modules when you do the builds.
