Experiment 01 · Worker instantiation · Embedded script

Uses a embedded script (as a Blob), that simply acknowledges messages it receives, logging them on the console. Embedded script instantiated with:


        const workerBlob = new Blob( [`self.onmessage = (msg) => { … };`]);

        const workerBlobURL = window.URL.createObjectURL( workerBlob);

        const worker = new Worker( workerBlobURL);

        worker.postMessage( { op: "sip", args: [ "☕️" ] });

        worker.postMessage( { op: "crunch", args: [ "🍐", "🍪" ] });

        worker.postMessage( { op: "listen", args: [ "Jaco / Portrait of Tracy" ] });

        worker.postMessage( { op: undefined });

Open the Console (CMD-ALT-J), which should display an output similar to this one:
