I am trying to make a webpage send data to a chrome extension that will fire when user visit a website(say google here)
manifest.json
{
"manifest_version": 2,
"name": "Test Addon",
"version": "0.01",
"icons": { "16": "icon-16.ico" },
"browser_action": {
"default_icon" : "icon-16.ico",
"default_popup" : "popup.html"
},
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": ["*://*.google.com/*" ],
"js": ["cs.js"]
}
],
"externally_connectable": {
"matches": ["*://*.mywebsite.com/*"]
}
}
cs.js
chrome.runtime.onMessageExternal.addListener(
function(request, sender, sendResponse) {
alert("world");
});
mywebsite.com/testpage.php
// The ID of my chrome extension (In developer mode)
var editorExtensionId = "cjgeckgdpfhnedenpkaanpehddchlkle";
// Send a message
chrome.runtime.sendMessage("Hello");
</script>
As far as i know content script have access to onMessage and sendMessage but i don't get an alert when i visit google
