Build

Requirements

• Latest LTS Node version (v14)
• Latest LTS NPM version (v6)
• bash
• npx (included with npm v5.2+)

Internally, we use web-ext to bundle a distribution package for the extension for Firefox. You do not need to install web-ext. Note that web-ext will generate a zip file which can also be used for the Chrome Web Store.

Then run the following bash script to generate a build (might need to make the file executable using chmod +x build.sh):

./build.sh

The script does:

• Install all dependencies using NPM
• Runs rollup to transpile and minify source files, with output written to build
• Run web-ext to package the extension for uploading to the Mozilla addon store

After the build the root directory contains the complete, unpackaged extension. Use the manifest.json file to load it manually into the browser.

The packaged extension can be found in the web-ext-artifacts folder.
