Python script for building google chrome extension crx package. It is inspired by rubygems' crxmake.
sudo apt-get install swig
sudo pip install crxmake
crxmake.py PACKAGE_BASE_DIR
An example extension named 'app' is provided in the examples/ directory for testing purposes:
$ crxmake.py examples/app
$ ls examples/app
$ app app.crx app.pem
- python 2
- swig
- M2Crypto (available via pip, requires swig)
- "openssl" command: because current M2Crypto lacks func for rsa pubout DER
"svn diff" output for appending the feature for rsa pubout DER.
Howto build m2crypto with it:
svn co http://svn.osafoundation.org/m2crypto/tags/0.20.2 m2crypto-0.20.2
cd m2crypto-0.20.2
patch -p0 < ../legacy/m2crypto-0.20.2-enable-rsa-pubout.patch
python setup.py build
(I hope someone send it to M2Crypto maintainer ^^)
