URL Mapper for Chrome

A Chrome extension to map URL created and maintained by Arnaud Buchholz.

Purpose

The tool was created to solve a server configuration issue. I wanted to be able to load the application with different components without changing the web server mappings (because I could not). With this tool, you can configure the browser to substitute URLs before the content is fetched.

Features

Define JSON configuration files containing mappings, basic syntax is:

{
    "name": "Sample file",
    "mappings": [{
        url: "http://localhost/bin/online.aspx",
        block: true
    }, {
        url: "http://localhost/resource/logo.jpg",
        redirect: "file:///C:/My%20Project/resource/logo-debug.jpg"
    }, {
        match: "http://localhost/scripts/(.*)",
        redirect: "file:///C:/My%20Project/$1"
    }]
}

Use regular expression to match URLs. Matching groups can be reused in the mapped URL. For instance: http://localhost/scripts/(.*)=file:///C:/My%20Project/$1
