Intro

This is the source code for the tracking-exposed extension. We use ECMAScript 2015, aka ES6, aka ECMAScript Harmony. The aim is to keep the code modular, easy to test, and beautiful.

Getting Started

Setting up the dev environment is super easy.

Dependencies

This project requires Node 5+. Install nvm if you haven't already.

Set up your build system

The build system uses a simple package.json file to describe the tasks.

To get started run:

npm install
npm test
npm start

The second line (npm test) is optional, but testing is cool and you should do it anyway. It's also a nice way to check if the installation succeeded.

npm start will build the application using webpack and watch for changes.

Set up your browser

To install the extension go to settings, select extensions, and enable Developer mode. Click on Load unpacked extension and select the extension/build directory contained in this repo.

Keep npm start running in the background to take advantage of the autoreload.

Note on autoreloading the extension

By running npm start, the extension will work in DEVELOPMENT mode. This means that every time you reload facebook.com, the extension will automatically reload itself using the chrome.runtime.reload() method.

Note that before we were using Extension Reloader to autoreload your extension every time a build succeeds. This dependency is no longer needed.

Ready to go!

Visit Facebook and open the dev tools. You should see some logging messages.
