No output

[xvilo]

Hi,

I have, I think, setup everything correctly. But i'm getting no output or error message from the plugin...

My code:

gulp.task('crx', ['default'], function() {
    // http://example.com/extension.crx
    var manifest = JSON.parse(fs.readFileSync('./manifest.json'));
    var codebase = 'http://redacted.domain/enagement-check.crx';
    var updateXmlFilename = 'update.xml';
    console.log(fs.readFileSync('./certs/key.pem', 'utf8'), manifest.savename + '.crx', codebase, updateXmlFilename);
    return gulp.src('.')
        .pipe(crx({
            privateKey: fs.readFileSync('./certs/key.pem', 'utf8'),
            filename: manifest.savename + '.crx',
            codebase: codebase,
            updateXmlFilename: updateXmlFilename
        }))
        .pipe(gulp.dest('./dist'));
});

Terminal output:

$ gulp crx
[21:29:43] Using gulpfile /bla/bla/project/gulpfile.js
[21:29:43] Starting 'default'...
[21:29:44] Finished 'default' after 1.02 s

^C

Not sure whats going on on here

It hangs and does nothing, right? I can see the same on my computer. I'll try to figure out what is wrong. Thanks for reporting!

Aha! crx was loading and attempting to archive all the files in directory, including node_modules and everything. When I moved the manifest.json file to a subdirectory it helped. Can you try that and see if it helps?

gulp.src('./src') // because '.' packs too much

• I have updated the README

Okay, give me a moment, I will check today

Shouldn't it also work to specify an exclude pattern in gulp.src? For some reason it runs forever for me, I suspect it's trying to package node_modules even though I've excluded that dir.
