In this article, we review how Langfuse parses JSON using web workers in the background. You will learn: What is Web Worker? json-parser.worker.ts useParsedTrace.ts What is Web Worker? Web Workers makes it possible to run a script operation in a background thread separate from the main execution thread of a web application. The advantage of this is that laborious processing can be performed in a separate thread, allowing the main (usually the UI) thread to run without being blocked/slowed down. A worker is an object created using a constructor (e.g., Worker()) that runs a named JavaScript file — this file contains the code that will run in the worker thread. Worker The Worker interface of the Web Workers API represents a background task that can be created via script, which can send messages back to its creator. Creating a worker is done by calling the Worker("path/to/worker/script") constructor. Workers may themselves spawn new workers, as long as those workers are hosted at the same
