Breaking changes (NetworkService) (Draft)

This document describes changes to Electron APIs after migrating network code to NetworkService API.

We don't currently have an estimate of when we will enable NetworkService by default in Electron, but as Chromium is already removing non-NetworkService code, we might switch before Electron 10.

The content of this document should be moved to breaking-changes.md once we have determined when to enable NetworkService in Electron.

Planned Breaking API Changes

protocol.unregisterProtocol

protocol.uninterceptProtocol

The APIs are now synchronous and the optional callback is no longer needed.

// Deprecated
protocol.unregisterProtocol(scheme, () => { /* ... */ })
// Replace with
protocol.unregisterProtocol(scheme)

protocol.registerFileProtocol

protocol.registerBufferProtocol

protocol.registerStringProtocol

protocol.registerHttpProtocol

protocol.registerStreamProtocol

protocol.interceptFileProtocol

protocol.interceptStringProtocol

protocol.interceptBufferProtocol

protocol.interceptHttpProtocol

protocol.interceptStreamProtocol

The APIs are now synchronous and the optional callback is no longer needed.

// Deprecated
protocol.registerFileProtocol(scheme, handler, () => { /* ... */ })
// Replace with
protocol.registerFileProtocol(scheme, handler)

The registered or intercepted protocol does not have effect on current page until navigation happens.

protocol.isProtocolHandled

This API is deprecated and users should use protocol.isProtocolRegistered and protocol.isProtocolIntercepted instead.

// Deprecated
protocol.isProtocolHandled(scheme).then(() => { /* ... */ })
// Replace with
const isRegistered = protocol.isProtocolRegistered(scheme)
const isIntercepted = protocol.isProtocolIntercepted(scheme)
