@zhuangya could you give me a bit of an more idea of what you are trying to do here?

[zhuangya]

there is no window in web-workers.
the global variable in web-workers is self instead.

the problem is: currently this plugin can not "plug it self to Pouch" automatically.

I'll have to wait on Nolan's call here. I know nothing about web workers.

Sorry, this is not really a use case we intend to support. If you are using web workers, you are advised to explicitly call PouchDB.plugin(...) yourself.

Honestly the only reason we even do the window.PouchDB check is because we wanted to make it less complicated for developers more comfortable with <script> tags. If you're using web workers, then we already assume you're a power user and you can apply the plugin yourself; it's the policy I've taken with all my plugins. Thanks!
