origin
Experimental: This is an experimental technology
Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.
The global origin
read-only property returns the origin of the global
scope, serialized as a string.
Value
A USVString
.
Examples
Executed from inside a worker script, the following snippet will log the worker's global scope's origin to the console each time it receives a message
onmessage = function() {
console.log(self.origin);
};
If the origin is not a scheme/host/port tuple (say you are trying to run it locally,
i.e. via file://
URL), origin
will return the string
"null"
.
