Build from latest source #254

Closed 00fsas closed 9 years ago

I didn't understand the steps you provided to build the xpi from the latest source is there a tool that simplifies all the work or could you elaborate?

Thanks

Pulling from master is not recommended due to frequent changes and there could be bugs. That said you have to use jpm instead of cfx as mozilla changed to a new tool. I'll update the documentation now . https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/SDK/Tools/jpm

If you just want to use an up to date github version then use https://github.com/dillbyrne/random-agent-spoofer/releases/download/0.9.5.3/random-agent-spoofer.xpi

is there a specific step you are having trouble with ?

There are multiple ways to obtain the source, you can download the zip or you can use git to clone the repository. Once you have the source you need to use the jpm tool to build the xpi.

jpm is a nodejs package.

Yay! I got it working now. Previously when using cfx I would get errors and I knew I did it right. It makes sense as cfx is no longer supported. Thank you again.

Glad you got it working. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. I forgot to update the instructions during the switch.
