One suggestion for HTTPS Finder #33

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
As long as I'm a NoScript user and HTTPS Everywhere is based on its code, I 
don't find the strict need of having installed HTTPS Everywhere to do a work 
that can do the former. So I'm asking you to add a feature to HTTPS Finder to 
allow to add domain rules to NoScript HTTPS enforcement list also.

I was going to ask you also to add a feature to HTTPS Finder to export the 
enforcement list of a installed HTTPS Everywhere to NoScript enforcement list, 
but I think that I'm going to ask that to NoScript programmer.

Thx in advance.

I looked into this before, but IIRC NoScript uses a Sqlite database to store 
the 'rules'.  I don't believe it's good practice for one extension to directly 
modify the database of another, whereas for HTTPS Everywhere we can just write 
rules and let HTTPS Everywhere import them.

However, I just posted this in the development log last night: "Working on 
fairly major rework of the Advanced tab. Adding ability to see session results 
and create rules there. It will be possible to not have any alerts/forwarding, 
and just check HTTPS Finder every 'once in a while' and create rules for any 
good HTTPS sites." See the preview here: http://i.imgur.com/ePf7c.jpg

Once this is done, you can choose not to be 'hassled' about HTTPS Everywhere, 
but still let HTTPS Finder find the possible sites you may want to add to 
NoScript. I will make it work with NoScript as easily as possible, but you may 
still have to copy URLs one-by-one.

I'm going to close this issue for now, but I'm working on making it more useful 
for NoScript-only users. Thanks

Any update on this? It would be so incredibly useful to have these two 
extensions working together seamlessly.
