Browser Extension BoilerPlate

Supported browsers:

• chrome
• safari
• firefox
• opera
• msedge

Development

• npm install
• ./node_modules/.bin/gulp watch --browser chrome --env development - watch + LiveReload
• ./node_modules/.bin/gulp build --browser chrome --env development - build once
• etc

UPD: see Makefile for short commands

Chrome / Firefox / Opera works well with LiveReload, MS Edge / Safari requires manual reload.

Release

• ./node_modules/.bin/gulp dist --browser chrome --env staging
• ./node_modules/.bin/gulp dist --browser chrome --env production
• etc

NOTE: Safari extension must be signed in browser, so it's distributed as file

• ../node_modules/.bin/manifoldjs -l debug -p edgeextension -f edgeextension -m ../build/production/msedge/manifest.json
• ../node_modules/.bin/manifoldjs -l debug -p edgeextension -f edgeextension -m ../build/staging/msedge/manifest.json
