- I am building a "TODO" application which uses Service Workers to cache the request's responses and in case a user is offline, the cached data is displayed to the user.
- The Server exposes an REST-ful endpoint which has POST, PUT, DELETE and GET endpoints exposed for the resources.
- Considering that when the user is offline and submitting a TODO item, I save that to local IndexedDB, but I can't send this POST request for the server since there is no network connection. The same is true for the PUT, DELETE requests where a user updates or deletes an existing TODO item
Questions
- What patterns are in use to sync the pending requests with the REST-ful Server when the connection is back online?
