Firefox Beta channel #41
Comments

I think the fastest way would be asking the dev of an addon that does that too (stable+betas). |
According to Mozilla.
|
Isn't WebToEbub already fully reviewed and approved? I suppose you're reading this: "https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/Distribution" If I get it right you should just need to create a beta channel? |
No, it hasn't been fully reviewed. From Mozilla.
|
Oh, so they do "preliminarily" reviews? Talk about making stuff unecessarily complicated. Now, what can Firefox users like me do to "push" for WebToEpub to be "fully" reviewed? I'll help if I can. |
I don't think there's anything you need to do. I'd also like to get more features implemented before I get Mozilla to go to all the effort of a full review. I would prefer they didn't have to do multiple reviews. Side note, at moment, I'm pushing out new versions at the rate of 1 to 2 per week. Also, for testing, the extension doesn't need to be available from the Mozilla store. You can manually load an extension (even with Firefox version 47) using these steps https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Temporary_Installation_in_Firefox As the FireFox extension is currently exactly the same as the Chrome extension, you can test the latest version without needing to download it from Mozilla. You can just download it from the Chrome store, rename it to an xpi and load into Firefox. Or you can download the latest dev source from GitHub. Note, the image on the Chrome store is just a zip of the plugin directory from GitHub. Finally, as the extension only works passably well with FireFox build 49, there doesn't seem to be a huge benefit to get it in the store now. Aside, Currently my focus is to get the rest of the features implemented, Then I'll see what I can do to get it working well on Firefox. |
OK, I understand the rationale, makes sense. I will check that way of temporary installing the extension. |
Yes. I think we should. |
@typhoon71 You can disable signature checks. See here for details. |
I know that I can disable signature checks, and I actually did that for a couple of addons. |
I think it is now simpler to create beta releases that get automatic updates for firefox. |
That's not a big deal. Just need to change versioning process. Which is manual anyway, and I really should move to a proper semantic versioning. At minimum, I should admit it's a a 1.x version. Not a 0.0.0.x |

I would like to have the betas of webtoepub available on the relevant Mozilla addon channel (beta); since they are not scrutinized by Mozilla as the release ones, it's possible to release them more frequently.
It should be useful for testing and stuff.
