NSB.cacheStatus

Description

NSB.cacheStatus returns the current cache status. When an app starts, it checks the server to see if a new version of the app is available. If there is, it is loaded. If not, the cached version of the app is used. NSB.cacheStatus contains the current state of this process. Once the cache process is complete, cacheStatus will be empty ("").

Possible values are:

cached	All the files have been cached for the first time.
checking	The browser is checking to see if the manifest file needs to be downloaded.
downloading	The browser has determined that the manifest file does need to be downloaded. This event is fired when the new files start downloading.
error	The cache process failed.
noupdate	The browser has determined that the manifest file does not need to be downloaded. No further events will fire.
obsolete	The request for the manifest file returned a 404 Not Found or 410 Gone. All the files in the cache will be deleted.
progress	Continually fired as the files are downloaded. It reports the total number of files to be downloaded and the total number of files downloaded thus far.
updateready	All the files have been updated. The cache has been updated. The user is prompted before the app is restarted. To turn off the prompt, add this line to your app: NSB.confirmCacheUpdate=""
