📦🚀 Parcel plugin for WebExtension projects

parcel-plugin-web-extension

This parcel plugin enables you to use a WebExtension manifest.json as an entry point. For more information about manifest.json, please refer to the MDN docs.

Installation

Install via npm:

npm install --save-dev parcel-plugin-web-extension

or via yarn:

yarn add -D parcel-plugin-web-extension

Usage

Quick Start

After installing this plugin, use manifest.json as your entry point, like so:

parcel src/manifest.json

Your assets will now be resolved from the contents of your manifest file.

Assets resolved by this plugin:

• background.scripts
• background.page
• content_scripts
• browser_action.default_popup
• browser_action.default_icon
• page_action.default_popup
• page_action.default_icon
• icons
• web_accessible_resources
• chrome_url_overrides.bookmarks
• chrome_url_overrides.newtab
• chrome_url_overrides.history

Environments

This plugin will try to resolve and merge environment-specific manifest files in the format manifest.${NODE_ENV}.json. For example, in development, you can run:

NODE_ENV=development parcel src/manifest.json

and the plugin will also look for manifest.development.json and merge those keys into the base manifest.
