Chrome extension that allows to inject JavaScript code into any webpage. You also can write your own JavaScript application and make use of the JavaScript and jQuery calculus power.
The extension is now available on the Chrome Web Store here :
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/js-exec/caeimpdeapdimekjkkkggpibnlijlnka
But if you want to test this repository version before the Chrome Web Store one is updated, you just have to download the js_exec folder and to load it as an unpacked extension on Chrome.
There are two ways to execute a script with JS-Exec :
- You can write a Quick Script directly from the popup window of the extension.
- Or you can write and save your script from the options page of the extension.
**/!** Your script will only run if your current Chrome tab is not a Chrome-specific page (like the Chrome Parameters or any extension options page for instance). This limitation can't be bypassed as Chrome refuses to execute any extension when on this kind of specific page.
It's important to understand that when a page loads, all the JavaScript injected into it disappears. That's why you can't simply set a global variable and expect it to still exist after the page has reloaded.
The same goes for custom functions.
If you want to save your script data across multiple pages, you can store it in the user_data object. Like so :
user_data.color = "blue";
Or :
user_data.say_hello = function () {
alert("Hello =)");
};
The //:load: keyword is meant to be placed at a point of your script where you expect the page to load/reload/navigate.
Basically, your script will be cut in pieces at these points and each piece of your script will b executed when the page reloads. That's why, at the moment, this keyword cannot be used in a function, for loop or if statement.
I am searching for another way to manage page loadings and open to any suggestion.
You can find some example scripts in the examples folder :
-
An example of a simple script that you can write in seconds to modifiy a web page or to automate actions :
simple_autopoke.js: This script will simply reply to every pokes you receive on your Facebook/pokes page.
-
A more advanced script to show the possibilities of web page modification :
autopoke.js: This script will create a "POKE" button to start/stop auto-poking and a Poke Log.
-
A quick, simple application using the JavaScript and jQuery computing power :
rot_code.js: This application is a simple implementation of the famous ROT-n code.
To try an example, simply copy & paste the code into the Quick Script popup, or save it as a new script from the options page.
