# Manifest

#### Permission Examples

```json
{
  "name": "Slingshow",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "description": "Easily request and create screen videos",
  "manifest_version": 2,

  "permissions": [
    "storage",
    "identity",
    "identity.email",
    "https://sigma-fonts.s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com/",
    "https://www.slingshow.com/",
    "http://localhost:3001/"
  ],
  "options_page": "options.html",

  "background": {
    "scripts": ["build/background.js"]
    "type": "module"
    //type module means import as ES module, remove line so regular script
  },
  "browser_action": {
    "default_popup": "popup.html"
  },
  "icons": {
    "16": "icon16.png",
    "24": "icon24.png",
    "48": "icon48.png",
    "128": "icon128.png"
  },
  "oauth2": {
    "client_id": "575235335697-ak2b2kc8pm1j8gc9r3484h9p1thju141.apps.googleusercontent.com",
    "scopes": [
      "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.profile",
      "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email"
    ]
  },
  "homepage_url": "https://www.slingshow.com",
  "web_accessible_resources": ["img/*", "fonts/*"],
  "key": "[]"
}
```

Then go to `chrome://extensions` and click load unpacked extensions and click the folder of your code.

Boom, chrome extension. Click reload on changes.

### Use React/Import/ES6 in Plugins

Use a bundler like webpack or parcel and output a single js file that you include as the script in some build folder

```json
{
  "name": "chrome-base",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "description": "Make web social again",
  "main": "scripts/scripts/js/main.js",
  "scripts": {
    "build:content": "parcel build scripts/content/content.js -d dist/build/ -o content.js",
    "watch:content": "parcel watch --no-hmr scripts/content/content.js -d dist/build/ -o content.js",
    "build:background": "parcel build scripts/background/background.js -d dist/build/ -o background.js",
    "watch:background": "parcel watch --no-hmr scripts/background/background.js -d dist/build/ -o background.js",
    "build": "concurrently \"npm run build:content\" \"npm run build:background\"",
    "watch": "concurrently \"npm run watch:content\" \"npm run watch:background\"",
    "clean": "rm -rf node_modules && rm package-lock.json"
  },
  "author": "Jorge Fuentes",
  "dependencies": {
    "@babel/runtime": "^7.5.5",
    "debug": "^4.1.1",
    "parcel-bundler": "^1.12.3",
    "react": "^16.8.6",
    "react-dom": "^16.8.6"
  },
  "devDependencies": {
    "@babel/core": "^7.6.2",
    "@babel/plugin-transform-runtime": "^7.6.2",
    "@babel/preset-env": "^7.6.2",
    "@babel/preset-react": "^7.0.0",
    "concurrently": "^4.1.0",
    "eslint": "^6.6.0",
    "eslint-config-prettier": "^6.5.0",
    "eslint-plugin-prettier": "^3.1.1",
    "eslint-plugin-react": "^7.16.0",
    "eslint-plugin-react-hooks": "^2.2.0",
    "prettier": "^1.18.2",
    "webextension-polyfill": "^0.5.0"
  }
}
```

Then change manifest.json to have the build scripts

Make sure all the files you want are imported in the one file you build

#### Content Security Policy

Not allowed to load external scripts in manifest V3

```json
"content_security_policy": "script-src 'self' https://example.com; object-src 'self'"
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://openai.gitbook.io/code-cheatsheets/js/all/chrome_plugins/manifest.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
