window is undefined when trying to run in worker file on browser

Thanks for the report! You are right that window does not exist in the environment for Web Workers. Maybe we should use self instead for detecting support: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/self and https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/WorkerGlobalScope/self

The following code could be a replacement without depending on window, although I didn't test it yet:

const isSupported = typeof self !== undefined && 'XMLHttpRequest' in self && 'Blob' in self && typeof Blob.prototype.slice === 'function'

Could you try it out and open a PR if it works?

Tested your code and it works fine with worker. The test-node and test-puppeteer run just fine.
However, I did not manage to create a specific demo for worker or a specific test for worker.

Here is my PR #660

May I know the status of this? Anything that I need to do on my side?

I didn't have the time yet to try it out but I plan on doing so in the next few days

I would also love to get this merged if it would solve this issue. If any additional help is required, I'm happy to lend a hand.

I added a few more commits to your PR and merged it. Can you please test the latest main branch from GitHub and let me know if it works? If so, I can release a new version.

Tested the main branch locally and works fine using with worker

Thanks for the confirmation! I just published v4.0.1, which includes this patch.
