Requirements

  • node 7+ (for jpm)
  • Firefox 57+

  2. cd src; web-ext run -f Nightly

Testing

TBD

Distributing

Make the new version

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

Publish to AMO

While the add-on is an Embedded Web Extension, we have to use the Mozilla Internal Signing Service to sign it as a Mozilla extension exempt from AMO's Web Extension restrictions.

So, to distribute the add-on to AMO:

  1. Use jpm xpi to build the .xpi file
  2. Submit the .xpi to the Internal Signing Service and download the signed .xpi
  3. Upload the signed .xpi file to AMO

Publish to GitHub

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

  1. Make the new release on GitHub
    • Use the version number for "Tag version" and "Release title"
    • Release notes: copy the output of git log --no-merges --pretty=format:"%h %s" <previous-version>..<new-version>
    • Attach binaries: select the signed .xpi file
