This API is used to register an event listener for a target. The event listener triggers an edge function when the specified type of event is delivered to the target. Only one event listener takes effect for the same type of event. Only fetch request events are supported currently. If a fetch event occurs after a fetch event listener is registered, the event listener generates a FetchEvent object to process the HTTP request.

Overview

function addEventListener(type: string, listener: (event: FetchEvent) => void): void;
