kandi X-RAY | WebExtension Summary

WebExtension is a HTML library typically used in Security, Cryptography applications. WebExtension has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

This web extension was created out of the interest to secure PrivateBin installations even more. As even with many security features, which have been implemented in PrivateBin, one fundamental issue remains: As a user you have to trust the server. This add-on tries to resolve this issue by adding a local security layer, which can ensure that a PrivateBin instance delivers the original code as published in the main repository and the server admin has not tampered with it. It is based on Subresource integrity and thus only supported by browsers, which support this security feature.

            How to set custom cookieStoreId using contextualIdentities.create()?
            Asked 2022-Apr-05 at 01:25

            Using the following code I can create custom contextual identity in Firefox (also see docs). My question is: how do I set my own name for cookieStoreId property. Firefox will always name it like firefox-container-XY by default.

            ANSWER

            Answered 2022-Feb-21 at 03:12

            It is not possible because cookieStoreId name is always auto-assigned by Firefox.

            There's no way to get this info retroactively for a tab, so you'll have to observe the network constantly and store the data in a global object per each tab id and frame id to support frames.

            According to the part about popup debugging in Mozilla's documentation, this behaviour likely happens because by default, when clicking outside of the popup, it closes and its code unloads.

            The solution is to change the ui.popup.disable_autohide setting to true in about:config, so that the popup remains open, and the code loaded, when clicking elsewhere.

            I've found a solution - browser.menus.onClicked.addListener() working properly, just there is a necessity to enable logging in browser settings.

            First, go to about:config and find key extensions.logging.enabled and switch it to true. Then, display Browser Console from Menu Bar -> Tools -> Browser Tools -> Browser Console or by shortcut Ctrl+Shift+J.

            Be aware that Browser Console is not the same as Firefox Developer Tools (from F12 or Ctrl+Shitft+I)!

I am wondering if I can access full email source code from java script file that I am using for building up my html page when pressing on button my extension. I found a funciton named getFull(messageId) in documentation at https://webextension-api.thunderbird.net/ but I don't understand how to use that function and I don't even know what messageId is. I know it is a integer but I don't know how to get that integer for a specific email. I entered permission (messagesRead) in my manifest file of extension for reading emails but i still don't know how to use that function. I didn't find any examples or tutorials on the internet so if anyone can help me or atleast point me to the right direction.

            Getting the id of the currently displayed message

            You should take a look at https://github.com/thundernest/sample-extensions/tree/master/messageDisplay, which is an example how to get the id of the currently displayed message from the messageDisplayAction using messageDisplay.getDisplayedMessage().

            See also https://webextension-api.thunderbird.net/en/latest/messageDisplay.html.

            messages.getFull()

            Didn't find a small example using that API. As a hint you should note that this function works on the different MIME parts a mail consists of.

            You will not get the complete source of the email that way. To get the raw source you would need to use messages.getRaw(). But you should probably not use getRaw() unless you really need it, because you would need to handle the complete parsing of the message yourself.

            How to modify URL in loading page?
            Asked 2022-Jan-28 at 15:25

            UPDATE: I realize now that in the scenario described below I will need to be careful of infinite loops since the page being redirected to is the same (minus the added param) as the initial page. Does anyone have any experience with that in Webextensions and can offer any advice on how best to avoid these loops?

            I've written a few Webextensions for Firefox before but it's been a few years (a little out of practise). But a new problem has arisen for which I can see no solution except to write my own Webextension.

            How would I modify the URL of a page and add a query parameter? I am specifically trying to modify the URL of Google Docs pages and add the query param ?mode=html

            So for example, a Google Docs URL might look like: https://docs.google.com/document/d/7Ujfjsd69To7lInXFOdn49nAxLLhfn43fj43JHDTp87/edit

            I am looking to create an extension that will modify that URL so it becomes: https://docs.google.com/document/d/7Ujfjsd69To7lInXFOdn49nAxLLhfn43fj43JHDTp87/edit?mode=html

            (Obviously I only want this param appended when the URL being loaded matches https://docs.google.com/document/d/*)

            Can anyone give me a pointer on how to start that? What extensionAPI function(s) would I need to use to do that? At what point in the lifespan of the request should it happen etc?

            activeTab works only when the user explicitly invokes your extension as described in the documentation for WebExtensions and Chrome extensions). Evidently, its name is highly misleading: it should have been something like activeTabWhenInvoked.

            In order to access any tab without prior interaction with your extension you'll have to add broad host permissions in manifest.json:

            QTP has stopped recording and spying
            Asked 2021-Nov-15 at 08:20

            I've been working for few months with QTP (UFT One 15.0.2), and today it has stopped recording (when I do the actions no lines are written in the script and no objects are added to the objects repository) and recognizing objects with the spy feature.

            I am using the WEB add-in, and as I've been working for months with Mozilla Firefox I have checked that the WebExtension.xpi is well added to the browser.

            I've tried to open mozilla before and after UFT One, I've also restarted my computer, I've checked the size of the screen browser is 100% and that in the Record and Run Settings the option " Record and run on any open browser" is checked for Web.

            This situation usually occurs because the company's IT department has changed the related policy, causing the UFT Firefox extension to fail to run normally.

            You can check if the HP.UFT.Firefox.NativeMessagingHost running in Windows task manager after openning Firefox while the extension is enabled, and check if the Micro Focus UFT Agent content script loaded in Firefox debugger's Sources tab(note: you need to check the "Enable browser chrome and add-on debugging toolboxes" in Web Developer Tools' Setting firstly).

            If one of these things does not exist, you should check the policy change with your IT: did they block the related thing running?
            If they all exist, you can open a CPE case to UFT One support. They will help you to do the further investigation.
