session

Session Управление сеансами браузера, куками, кешем, настройками прокси и т. д.

Процесс: Главный

Модуль session может быть использован для создания новых объектов Session.

Вы также можете получить доступ к session существующих страниц, используя свойство session в WebContents, или из модуля session.

const { BrowserWindow } = require('electron')

const win = new BrowserWindow({ width: 800, height: 600 })
win.loadURL('https://github.com')

const ses = win.webContents.session
console.log(ses.getUserAgent())

Методы

Модуль session имеет следующие методы:

session.fromPartition(partition[, options])

  • partition string
  • options Object (опционально)
    • cache boolean - Whether to enable cache.

Возвращает Session - Экземпляр сеанса из строки partition. При наличии Session с таким же partition, он будет возвращен; иначе новый экземпляр Session будет создан с options.

Если partition начинается с persist:, страница будет использовать постоянный сеанс, который доступен всем страницам в приложении с тем же partition. если нет префикса persist:, страница будет использовать сеанс в памяти. Если partition пуст, то будет возвращен сеанс приложения по умолчанию.

Чтобы создать Session с options, вы должны убедиться, что Session с partition раньше никогда не использовался. Невозможно изменить options из существующего Session объекта.

session.fromPath(path[, options])

  • path string
  • options Object (опционально)
    • cache boolean - Whether to enable cache.

Returns Session - A session instance from the absolute path as specified by the path string. When there is an existing Session with the same absolute path, it will be returned; otherwise a new Session instance will be created with options. The call will throw an error if the path is not an absolute path. Additionally, an error will be thrown if an empty string is provided.

To create a Session with options, you have to ensure the Session with the path has never been used before. Невозможно изменить options из существующего Session объекта.

Свойства

Модуль session имеет следующие свойства:

session.defaultSession

Объект Session, объект сеанса по умолчанию для приложения.

Класс: Session

Получает и устанавливает свойства сеанса.

Процесс: Main
Этот класс не экспортируется из модуля 'electron'. Он доступен только в качестве возвращаемого значения других методов в Electron API.

Вы можете создать объект Session в модуле session:

const { session } = require('electron')
const ses = session.fromPartition('persist:name')
console.log(ses.getUserAgent())

ses.closeAllConnections()

Returns Promise<void> - Resolves when all connections are closed.

Note: It will terminate / fail all requests currently in flight.

ses.fetch(input[, init])

Returns Promise<GlobalResponse> - see Response.

Sends a request, similarly to how fetch() works in the renderer, using Chrome's network stack. This differs from Node's fetch(), which uses Node.js's HTTP stack.

Пример:

async function example () {
const response = await net.fetch('https://my.app')
if (response.ok) {
const body = await response.json()
// ... use the result.
}
}

See also net.fetch(), a convenience method which issues requests from the default session.

See the MDN documentation for fetch() for more details.

Ограничения:

  • net.fetch() does not support the data: or blob: schemes.
  • The value of the integrity option is ignored.
  • The .type and .url values of the returned Response object are incorrect.

By default, requests made with net.fetch can be made to custom protocols as well as file:, and will trigger webRequest handlers if present. When the non-standard bypassCustomProtocolHandlers option is set in RequestInit, custom protocol handlers will not be called for this request. This allows forwarding an intercepted request to the built-in handler. webRequest handlers will still be triggered when bypassing custom protocols.

protocol.handle('https', (req) => {
if (req.url === 'https://my-app.com') {
return new Response('<body>my app</body>')
} else {
return net.fetch(req, { bypassCustomProtocolHandlers: true })
}
})

ses.disableNetworkEmulation()

Disables any network emulation already active for the session. Resets to the original network configuration.

ses.setCertificateVerifyProc(proc)

  • proc Function | null
    • request Object
      • hostname string
      • certificate Certificate
      • validatedCertificate Certificate
      • isIssuedByKnownRoot boolean - true if Chromium recognises the root CA as a standard root. If it isn't then it's probably the case that this certificate was generated by a MITM proxy whose root has been installed locally (for example, by a corporate proxy). This should not be trusted if the verificationResult is not OK.
      • verificationResult string - OK if the certificate is trusted, otherwise an error like CERT_REVOKED.
      • errorCode Integer - Код ошибки.
    • callback Function
      • verificationResult Integer - Value can be one of certificate error codes from here. Apart from the certificate error codes, the following special codes can be used.
        • 0 - Указывает на успех и отключает проверку прозрачности сертификата.
        • -2 - указывает на сбой.
        • -3 - Использует результат проверки из хрома.

Устанавливает значение проверки сертификата для session, proc будет вызываться с proc(request, callback) всякий раз, когда запрашивается сертификат сервера. Вызов callback(0) принимает сертификат, вызов callback(-2) отклоняет его.

Вызов setCertificateVerifyProc (null) приведет к возврату к процедуре проверки сертификата по умолчанию.

const { BrowserWindow } = require('electron')
const win = new BrowserWindow()

win.webContents.session.setCertificateVerifyProc((request, callback) => {
const { hostname } = request
if (hostname === 'github.com') {
callback(0)
} else {
callback(-2)
}
})

NOTE: The result of this procedure is cached by the network service.

Sets the handler which can be used to respond to permission requests for the session. Calling callback(true) will allow the permission and callback(false) will reject it. To clear the handler, call setPermissionRequestHandler(null). Please note that you must also implement setPermissionCheckHandler to get complete permission handling. Most web APIs do a permission check and then make a permission request if the check is denied.

const { session } = require('electron')
session.fromPartition('some-partition').setPermissionRequestHandler((webContents, permission, callback) => {
if (webContents.getURL() === 'some-host' && permission === 'notifications') {

      • pointerLock - Directly interpret mouse movements as an input method via the Pointer Lock API. These requests always appear to originate from the main frame.
      • serial - Read from and write to serial devices with the Web Serial API.
      • storage-access - Allows content loaded in a third-party context to request access to third-party cookies using the Storage Access API.
      • top-level-storage-access - Allow top-level sites to request third-party cookie access on behalf of embedded content originating from another site in the same related website set using the Storage Access API.
      • usb - Expose non-standard Universal Serial Bus (USB) compatible devices services to the web with the WebUSB API.
    • requestingOrigin string - The origin URL of the permission check
    • details Object - Some properties are only available on certain permission types.
      • embeddingOrigin string (optional) - The origin of the frame embedding the frame that made the permission check. Only set for cross-origin sub frames making permission checks.
      • securityOrigin string (optional) - The security origin of the media check.
      • mediaType string (optional) - The type of media access being requested, can be video, audio or unknown
      • requestingUrl string (optional) - The last URL the requesting frame loaded. This is not provided for cross-origin sub frames making permission checks.
      • isMainFrame boolean - Whether the frame making the request is the main frame

Sets the handler which can be used to respond to permission checks for the session. Returning true will allow the permission and false will reject it. Please note that you must also implement setPermissionRequestHandler to get complete permission handling. Most web APIs do a permission check and then make a permission request if the check is denied. To clear the handler, call setPermissionCheckHandler(null).

const { session } = require('electron')
const url = require('url')
session.fromPartition('some-partition').setPermissionCheckHandler((webContents, permission, requestingOrigin) => {
if (new URL(requestingOrigin).hostname === 'some-host' && permission === 'notifications') {
return true // granted
}

return false // denied
})

ses.setDisplayMediaRequestHandler(handler[, opts])

  • handler Function | null
    • request Object
      • frame WebFrameMain - Frame that is requesting access to media.
      • securityOrigin String - Origin of the page making the request.
      • videoRequested Boolean - true if the web content requested a video stream.
      • audioRequested Boolean - true if the web content requested an audio stream.
      • userGesture Boolean - Whether a user gesture was active when this request was triggered.
    • callback Function
      • Объект streams
        • video Object | WebFrameMain (optional)
          • id String - The id of the stream being granted. This will usually come from a DesktopCapturerSource object.
          • name String - The name of the stream being granted. This will usually come from a DesktopCapturerSource object.
        • audio String | WebFrameMain (optional) - If a string is specified, can be loopback or loopbackWithMute. Specifying a loopback device will capture system audio, and is currently only supported on Windows. If a WebFrameMain is specified, will capture audio from that frame.
        • enableLocalEcho Boolean (optional) - If audio is a WebFrameMain and this is set to true, then local playback of audio will not be muted (e.g. using MediaRecorder to record WebFrameMain with this flag set to true will allow audio to pass through to the speakers while recording). По умолчанию - false.
  • opts Object (optional) macOS Experimental
    • useSystemPicker Boolean - true if the available native system picker should be used. По умолчанию - false. macOS Experimental

This handler will be called when web content requests access to display media via the navigator.mediaDevices.getDisplayMedia API. Use the desktopCapturer API to choose which stream(s) to grant access to.

useSystemPicker allows an application to use the system picker instead of providing a specific video source from getSources. This option is experimental, and currently available for MacOS 15+ only. If the system picker is available and useSystemPicker is set to true, the handler will not be invoked.

const { session, desktopCapturer } = require('electron')

session.defaultSession.setDisplayMediaRequestHandler((request, callback) => {
desktopCapturer.getSources({ types: ['screen'] }).then((sources) => {
// Grant access to the first screen found.
callback({ video: sources[0] })
})
// Use the system picker if available.
// Note: this is currently experimental. If the system picker
// is available, it will be used and the media request handler
// will not be invoked.
}, { useSystemPicker: true })

Passing a WebFrameMain object as a video or audio stream will capture the video or audio stream from that frame.

const { session } = require('electron')

session.defaultSession.setDisplayMediaRequestHandler((request, callback) => {
// Allow the tab to capture itself.
callback({ video: request.frame })
})

Passing null instead of a function resets the handler to its default state.

ses.setDevicePermissionHandler(handler)

  • handler Function<boolean> | null
    • Объект details
      • deviceType string - The type of device that permission is being requested on, can be hid, serial, or usb.
      • origin string - The origin URL of the device permission check.
      • device HIDDevice | SerialPort | USBDevice - устройство, для которого требуется разрешение.

Sets the handler which can be used to respond to device permission checks for the session. Returning true will allow the device to be permitted and false will reject it. To clear the handler, call setDevicePermissionHandler(null). This handler can be used to provide default permissioning to devices without first calling for permission to devices (eg via navigator.hid.requestDevice). If this handler is not defined, the default device permissions as granted through device selection (eg via navigator.hid.requestDevice) will be used. Additionally, the default behavior of Electron is to store granted device permission in memory. If longer term storage is needed, a developer can store granted device permissions (eg when handling the select-hid-device event) and then read from that storage with setDevicePermissionHandler.

const { app, BrowserWindow } = require('electron')

let win = null

app.whenReady().then(() => {
win = new BrowserWindow()

win.webContents.session.setPermissionCheckHandler((webContents, permission, requestingOrigin, details) => {
if (permission === 'hid') {
// Add logic here to determine if permission should be given to allow HID selection
return true
} else if (permission === 'serial') {
// Add logic here to determine if permission should be given to allow serial port selection
} else if (permission === 'usb') {
// Add logic here to determine if permission should be given to allow USB device selection
}
return false
})

// Optionally, retrieve previously persisted devices from a persistent store
const grantedDevices = fetchGrantedDevices()

win.webContents.session.setDevicePermissionHandler((details) => {
if (new URL(details.origin).hostname === 'some-host' && details.deviceType === 'hid') {
if (details.device.vendorId === 123 && details.device.productId === 345) {
// Always allow this type of device (this allows skipping the call to `navigator.hid.requestDevice` first)
return true
}

// Search through the list of devices that have previously been granted permission
return grantedDevices.some((grantedDevice) => {
return grantedDevice.vendorId === details.device.vendorId &&
grantedDevice.productId === details.device.productId &&
grantedDevice.serialNumber && grantedDevice.serialNumber === details.device.serialNumber
})
} else if (details.deviceType === 'serial') {
if (details.device.vendorId === 123 && details.device.productId === 345) {
// Always allow this type of device (this allows skipping the call to `navigator.hid.requestDevice` first)
return true
}
}
return false
})

win.webContents.session.on('select-hid-device', (event, details, callback) => {
event.preventDefault()
const selectedDevice = details.deviceList.find((device) => {
return device.vendorId === 9025 && device.productId === 67
})
callback(selectedDevice?.deviceId)
})
})

ses.setUSBProtectedClassesHandler(handler)

  • handler Function<string[]> | null
    • Объект details
      • protectedClasses string[] - The current list of protected USB classes. Possible class values include:
        • audio
        • audio-video
        • hid
        • mass-storage
        • smart-card
        • video
        • wireless

Sets the handler which can be used to override which USB classes are protected. The return value for the handler is a string array of USB classes which should be considered protected (eg not available in the renderer). Valid values for the array are:

  • audio
  • audio-video
  • hid
  • mass-storage
  • smart-card
  • video
  • wireless

Returning an empty string array from the handler will allow all USB classes; returning the passed in array will maintain the default list of protected USB classes (this is also the default behavior if a handler is not defined). To clear the handler, call setUSBProtectedClassesHandler(null).

const { app, BrowserWindow } = require('electron')

let win = null

app.whenReady().then(() => {
win = new BrowserWindow()

win.webContents.session.setUSBProtectedClassesHandler((details) => {
// Allow all classes:
// return []
// Keep the current set of protected classes:
// return details.protectedClasses
// Selectively remove classes:
return details.protectedClasses.filter((usbClass) => {
// Exclude classes except for audio classes
return usbClass.indexOf('audio') === -1
})
})
})

ses.setBluetoothPairingHandler(handler) Windows Linux

  • handler Function | null
    • Объект details
      • deviceId string
      • pairingKind string - The type of pairing prompt being requested. Одно из следующих значений:
        • confirm This prompt is requesting confirmation that the Bluetooth device should be paired.
        • confirmPin This prompt is requesting confirmation that the provided PIN matches the pin displayed on the device.
        • providePin This prompt is requesting that a pin be provided for the device.
      • frame WebFrameMain
      • pin string (optional) - The pin value to verify if pairingKind is confirmPin.
    • callback Function
      • response Object
        • confirmed boolean - false should be passed in if the dialog is canceled. If the pairingKind is confirm or confirmPin, this value should indicate if the pairing is confirmed. If the pairingKind is providePin the value should be true when a value is provided.
        • pin string | null (optional) - When the pairingKind is providePin this value should be the required pin for the Bluetooth device.

Sets a handler to respond to Bluetooth pairing requests. This handler allows developers to handle devices that require additional validation before pairing. When a handler is not defined, any pairing on Linux or Windows that requires additional validation will be automatically cancelled. macOS does not require a handler because macOS handles the pairing automatically. To clear the handler, call setBluetoothPairingHandler(null).

const { app, BrowserWindow, session } = require('electron')
const path = require('node:path')

function createWindow () {
let bluetoothPinCallback = null

const mainWindow = new BrowserWindow({
webPreferences: {
preload: path.join(__dirname, 'preload.js')
}
})

mainWindow.webContents.session.setBluetoothPairingHandler((details, callback) => {
bluetoothPinCallback = callback
// Send a IPC message to the renderer to prompt the user to confirm the pairing.
// Note that this will require logic in the renderer to handle this message and
// display a prompt to the user.
mainWindow.webContents.send('bluetooth-pairing-request', details)
})

// Listen for an IPC message from the renderer to get the response for the Bluetooth pairing.
mainWindow.webContents.ipc.on('bluetooth-pairing-response', (event, response) => {
bluetoothPinCallback(response)
})
}

app.whenReady().then(() => {
createWindow()
})

ses.clearHostResolverCache()

Returns Promise<void> - Resolves when the operation is complete.

Clears the host resolver cache.

ses.allowNTLMCredentialsForDomains(domains)

  • domains string - A comma-separated list of servers for which integrated authentication is enabled.

Dynamically sets whether to always send credentials for HTTP NTLM or Negotiate authentication.

const { session } = require('electron')
// consider any url ending with `example.com`, `foobar.com`, `baz`
// for integrated authentication.
session.defaultSession.allowNTLMCredentialsForDomains('*example.com, *foobar.com, *baz')

// consider all urls for integrated authentication.
session.defaultSession.allowNTLMCredentialsForDomains('*')

ses.setUserAgent(userAgent[, acceptLanguages])

  • userAgent string
  • acceptLanguages string (опционально)

Overrides the userAgent and acceptLanguages for this session.

The acceptLanguages must a comma separated ordered list of language codes, for example "en-US,fr,de,ko,zh-CN,ja".

This doesn't affect existing WebContents, and each WebContents can use webContents.setUserAgent to override the session-wide user agent.

ses.isPersistent()

Returns boolean - Whether or not this session is a persistent one. The default webContents session of a BrowserWindow is persistent. When creating a session from a partition, session prefixed with persist: will be persistent, while others will be temporary.

ses.getUserAgent()

Returns string - The user agent for this session.

ses.setSSLConfig(config)

  • Объект config
    • minVersion string (опционально) - Может быть tls1, tls1.1, tls1.2 или tls1.3. The minimum SSL version to allow when connecting to remote servers. Значение по умолчанию: tls1.
    • maxVersion string (опционально) - Может быть tls1.2 или tls1.3. The maximum SSL version to allow when connecting to remote servers. По умолчанию tls1.3.
    • disabledCipherSuites Integer[] (optional) - List of cipher suites which should be explicitly prevented from being used in addition to those disabled by the net built-in policy. Supported literal forms: 0xAABB, where AA is cipher_suite[0] and BB is cipher_suite[1], as defined in RFC 2246, Section 7.4.1.2. Unrecognized but parsable cipher suites in this form will not return an error. Ex: To disable TLS_RSA_WITH_RC4_128_MD5, specify 0x0004, while to disable TLS_ECDH_ECDSA_WITH_RC4_128_SHA, specify 0xC002. Note that TLSv1.3 ciphers cannot be disabled using this mechanism.

Sets the SSL configuration for the session. All subsequent network requests will use the new configuration. Existing network connections (such as WebSocket connections) will not be terminated, but old sockets in the pool will not be reused for new connections.

ses.getBlobData(identifier)

  • identifier string - Valid UUID.

Returns Promise<Buffer> - resolves with blob data.

ses.downloadURL(url[, options])

  • url string
  • options Object (опционально)
    • headers Record<string, string> (optional) - HTTP request headers.

Initiates a download of the resource at url. The API will generate a DownloadItem that can be accessed with the will-download event.

Note: This does not perform any security checks that relate to a page's origin, unlike webContents.downloadURL.

ses.createInterruptedDownload(options)

  • options Object
    • path string - Absolute path of the download.
    • urlChain string[] - Complete URL chain for the download.
    • mimeType string (опционально)

    • eTag string (optional) - ETag header value.
    • startTime Double (optional) - Time when download was started in number of seconds since UNIX epoch.

Allows resuming cancelled or interrupted downloads from previous Session. The API will generate a DownloadItem that can be accessed with the will-download event. The DownloadItem will not have any WebContents associated with it and the initial state will be interrupted. The download will start only when the resume API is called on the DownloadItem.

ses.clearAuthCache()

Returns Promise<void> - resolves when the session’s HTTP authentication cache has been cleared.

ses.setPreloads(preloads)

  • preloads string[] - An array of absolute path to preload scripts

Adds scripts that will be executed on ALL web contents that are associated with this session just before normal preload scripts run.

ses.getPreloads()

Returns string[] an array of paths to preload scripts that have been registered.

ses.setCodeCachePath(path)

  • Строка path - абсолютный путь для хранения кэша кода JS, сгенерированного v8 из визуализатора.

Устанавливает директорию для хранения сгенерированного кодового кэша JS для этой сессии. Каталог не требуется для создания пользователем перед этим вызовом, время выполнения создается, если он не существует, в противном случае будет использовать существующий каталог. Если каталог не может быть создан, то кэш кода не будет использоваться и все операции, связанные с кэшем кода, будут неудачны в процессе выполнения. По умолчанию каталог будет Code Cache в папку соответствующих пользовательских данных.

Note that by default code cache is only enabled for http(s) URLs, to enable code cache for custom protocols, codeCache: true and standard: true must be specified when registering the protocol.

ses.clearCodeCaches(options)

  • options Object
    • urls String[] (необязательно) - массив url, соответствующий ресурсу, чей генерируемый кодовый кэш должен быть удален. Если список пуст, то все записи в каталоге кэша будут удалены.

Возвращает Promise<void> - Разрешение осле завершения операции очистки кеша кода.

ses.setSpellCheckerEnabled(enable)

  • enable boolean

Устанавливает, следует ли включать встроенную проверку орфографии.

ses.isSpellCheckerEnabled()

Возвращает boolean - включена ли встроенная проверка орфографии.

ses.setSpellCheckerLanguages(языки)

  • languages строка[] - массив кодов языка для включения проверки орфографии.

The built in spellchecker does not automatically detect what language a user is typing in. In order for the spell checker to correctly check their words you must call this API with an array of language codes. You can get the list of supported language codes with the ses.availableSpellCheckerLanguages property.

Note: On macOS the OS spellchecker is used and will detect your language automatically. This API is a no-op on macOS.

ses.getSpellCheckerLanguages()

Returns string[] - An array of language codes the spellchecker is enabled for. If this list is empty the spellchecker will fallback to using en-US. By default on launch if this setting is an empty list Electron will try to populate this setting with the current OS locale. This setting is persisted across restarts.

Note: On macOS the OS spellchecker is used and has its own list of languages. On macOS, this API will return whichever languages have been configured by the OS.

ses.setSpellCheckerDictionaryDownloadURL(url)

  • url string - A base URL for Electron to download hunspell dictionaries from.

By default Electron will download hunspell dictionaries from the Chromium CDN. If you want to override this behavior you can use this API to point the dictionary downloader at your own hosted version of the hunspell dictionaries. We publish a hunspell_dictionaries.zip file with each release which contains the files you need to host here.

The file server must be case insensitive. If you cannot do this, you must upload each file twice: once with the case it has in the ZIP file and once with the filename as all lowercase.

If the files present in hunspell_dictionaries.zip are available at https://example.com/dictionaries/language-code.bdic then you should call this api with ses.setSpellCheckerDictionaryDownloadURL('https://example.com/dictionaries/'). Please note the trailing slash. The URL to the dictionaries is formed as ${url}${filename}.

Note: On macOS the OS spellchecker is used and therefore we do not download any dictionary files. This API is a no-op on macOS.

ses.listWordsInSpellCheckerDictionary()

Returns Promise<string[]> - An array of all words in app's custom dictionary. Resolves when the full dictionary is loaded from disk.

ses.addWordToSpellCheckerDictionary(word)

  • word string - The word you want to add to the dictionary

Returns boolean - Whether the word was successfully written to the custom dictionary. This API will not work on non-persistent (in-memory) sessions.

Note: On macOS and Windows 10 this word will be written to the OS custom dictionary as well

ses.removeWordFromSpellCheckerDictionary(word)

  • word string - The word you want to remove from the dictionary

Returns boolean - Whether the word was successfully removed from the custom dictionary. This API will not work on non-persistent (in-memory) sessions.

Note: On macOS and Windows 10 this word will be removed from the OS custom dictionary as well

ses.loadExtension(path[, options])

  • path string - Path to a directory containing an unpacked Chrome extension
  • options Object (опционально)
    • allowFileAccess boolean - Whether to allow the extension to read local files over file:// protocol and inject content scripts into file:// pages. This is required e.g. for loading devtools extensions on file:// URLs. По умолчанию - false.

Returns Promise<Extension> - resolves when the extension is loaded.

This method will raise an exception if the extension could not be loaded. If there are warnings when installing the extension (e.g. if the extension requests an API that Electron does not support) then they will be logged to the console.

Note that Electron does not support the full range of Chrome extensions APIs. See Supported Extensions APIs for more details on what is supported.

Note that in previous versions of Electron, extensions that were loaded would be remembered for future runs of the application. This is no longer the case: loadExtension must be called on every boot of your app if you want the extension to be loaded.

const { app, session } = require('electron')
const path = require('node:path')

app.whenReady().then(async () => {
await session.defaultSession.loadExtension(
path.join(__dirname, 'react-devtools'),
// allowFileAccess is required to load the devtools extension on file:// URLs.
{ allowFileAccess: true }
)
// Note that in order to use the React DevTools extension, you'll need to
// download and unzip a copy of the extension.
})

This API does not support loading packed (.crx) extensions.

Примечание: Этот метод не может быть вызван до тех пор, пока событие ready модуля app не произойдет.

Note: Loading extensions into in-memory (non-persistent) sessions is not supported and will throw an error.

ses.removeExtension(extensionId)

  • extensionId string - ID of extension to remove

Unloads an extension.

Примечание: Этот метод не может быть вызван до тех пор, пока событие ready модуля app не произойдет.

ses.getExtension(extensionId)

  • extensionId string - ID of extension to query

Returns Extension | null - The loaded extension with the given ID.

Примечание: Этот метод не может быть вызван до тех пор, пока событие ready модуля app не произойдет.

ses.getAllExtensions()

Returns Extension[] - A list of all loaded extensions.

Примечание: Этот метод не может быть вызван до тех пор, пока событие ready модуля app не произойдет.

ses.getStoragePath()

Returns string | null - The absolute file system path where data for this session is persisted on disk. For in memory sessions this returns null.

ses.clearData([options])

  • options Object (опционально)
    • dataTypes String[] (optional) - The types of data to clear. By default, this will clear all types of data.
      • backgroundFetch - Background Fetch
      • cache - Cache
      • cookies - Cookies
      • downloads - Downloads
      • fileSystems - File Systems
      • indexedDB - IndexedDB
      • localStorage - Local Storage
      • serviceWorkers - Service Workers
      • webSQL - WebSQL
    • origins String[] (optional) - Clear data for only these origins. Cannot be used with excludeOrigins.
    • excludeOrigins String[] (optional) - Clear data for all origins except these ones. Cannot be used with origins.
    • avoidClosingConnections boolean (optional) - Skips deleting cookies that would close current network connections. (Default: false)
    • originMatchingMode String (optional) - The behavior for matching data to origins.
      • third-parties-included (default) - Storage is matched on origin in first-party contexts and top-level-site in third-party contexts.
      • origin-in-all-contexts - Storage is matched on origin only in all contexts.

Returns Promise<void> - resolves when all data has been cleared.

Clears various different types of data.

This method clears more types of data and is more thorough than the clearStorageData method.

Note: Cookies are stored at a broader scope than origins. When removing cookies and filtering by origins (or excludeOrigins), the cookies will be removed at the registrable domain level. For example, clearing cookies for the origin https://really.specific.origin.example.com/ will end up clearing all cookies for example.com. Clearing cookies for the origin https://my.website.example.co.uk/ will end up clearing all cookies for example.co.uk.
