Multi-Account Containers

The Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension lets you carve out a separate box for each of your online lives – no more opening a different browser just to check your work email! Learn More Here

Available on addons.mozilla.org

For more info, see:

Requirements

node 7+ (for jpm)
Firefox 57+

Development

Running Locally

Via WebExtensions API (web-ext)

Install the web-ext tool.
Run web-ext run -s src/. This launches Firefox and installs the extension automatically.

This tool provides some additional development features, such as automatic reloading.

Via about:debugging in Firefox

Open the about:debugging page in Firefox.
Click on This Firefox.
Click on Load Temporary Add-on.
Select src/manifest.json.

Here is a video that demonstrates how to do this.

Testing

Install dependencies:
```
npm install
```
Run all tests:
```
npm run test
```
Only run the linter:
```
npm run lint
```

There is a timeout test that sometimes fails on certain machines, so make sure to run the tests on your clone before you make any changes to see if you have this problem.

Add/update messages for translation

The src/_locales directory is a git repository like any other, so to make changes to the messages:

Make whatever changes you need in src/_locales/en as you work.
cd src/_locales/en
git branch message-updates-yyyymmdd
git push -u origin message-updates-yyyymmdd

You can then open a pull request from the message-updates-yyyymmdd branch to

the l10n repo main branch.

Distributing

Make the new version

Bump the version number in package.json and manifest.json
Commit the version number bump
Create a git tag for the version: git tag <version>
Push the tag up to GitHub: git push --tags

Publish to AMO

npm run-script build
Upload the .zip to AMO

Publish to GitHub

Finally, we also publish the release to GitHub for those followers.
