- Use placeholders in saved requests.
- Use shortcuts for the frequently used actions (try pressing "?" to see the available shortcuts for the current context).
The project requires:
nodein a version >= 6.
Install all other dependencies with the command:
npm install
WebExtensions enfore a content security policy (CSP) for all sites in the add-on, which does not allow inline scripts. However, as the main site uses Polymer, a big amount of the JavaScript is written as inline scripts. This affects both the add-on code itself and dependencies.
To make the browser load the add-on, you should run:
npm start
This will generate a working add-on in the folder .build, where all JavaScript code is extracted into separate script files. It will also watch files for changes and update the folder accordingly.
To load the add-on in the browser:
- Firefox: Go to about:debugging, click on "Load Temporary Add-on" and select the file manifest.json inside the .build folder.
- Chrome: Go to chrome://extensions, check the box "Developer mode", click on "Load unpacked extension..." and select the folder .build.
To create packages for AMO and the Chrome Web Store run:
npm run package
Afterwards you will find the generated files in the folder .package.
