A browser extension for Check.

Available for Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome.

The JavaScript code lives in src. Static files like HTML, Manifest and images live in public.

Copy config.js.example to config.js and define your configurations.

You can compile the code with npm run build. It was developed and tested with Node 7. After the code is compiled, it will be under build. After you installed the extension (see below how to do it), you don't need to re-install it when you make code changes.

Follow the steps below or our video-tutorial.

• Visit chrome://extensions
• Enable "Developer mode"
• Click "Load unpacked extension..."
• Pick one of the directories:
  • build, if you are a developer and has compiled the extension locally in your machine
  • releases/qa, to use the QA version
  • releases/live, to use the live version
• The extension will appear on the toolbar

If you are not able to login using the browser extension on Chrome, make sure that the option "Block third-party cookies", under your browser configurations, is disabled. If you use an extension like AdBlock, you first need to disable the extension, then disable the "Block third-party cookies" option.

• Visit about:debugging
• Click "Load Temporary Add-on"
• Pick the manifest.json file inside one of the following directories:
  • build, if you are a developer and has compiled the extension locally in your machine
  • releases/qa, to use the QA version
  • releases/live, to use the live version
• The extension will appear on the toolbar

As usual, localization is done on Transifex. You must have the tx client installed on your computer and configured to communicate with the Transifex server. You can send new strings to Transifex by running npm run transifex:upload and you can download translations from Transifex by running npm run transifex:download.

• You need zip, rspec, geckodriver and chromedriver.
• Copy test/config.yml.example to test/config.yml and adjust the configurations.
• Tests can be run with npm run test.

• Edit public/manifest.json and increment the version number
• Create a new release via npm run release:live which will create the package releases/live/live.zip
• Submit the package to Chrome Store and Firefox Store for review and publishing

• Some permissions will require justification:
  • activeTab: Send the current URL to Check
  • contextMenus: Invoke the extension from a link on right-click

• Nothing special is needed, just upload the ZIP
