Service worker scope is not matching

I have service-worker.js in public folder.
When i register service worker i have to say 

navigator.serviceWorker.register('./public/csw.js')

But the problem is now scope of service worker is set to http://localhost:2009/public and i want to catch fetch request for http://localhost:2009/

If i try to change the scope of service worker 

navigator.serviceWorker.register('./public/csw.js',{scope:'/'})

That create error because service worker is called from file in other dir i.e root/src/index.js
I am not using CRA

A Service Worker can only manage a scope below its own path for security reasons. You need to move csw.js to the root folder if you want it to handle all requests on the host. Alternatively, you could set an HTTP header Service-Worker-Allowed: / on the csw.js path (assuming your hosting allows you to do that)
