Code Line Daily extension is live again
Last week, ChatGPT helped me publish my first VS Code extension, so I thought it could assist me with updating my old Code Line Daily Chrome extension.
I struggled to update my extension due to the new rules in Manifest V3. My old extension did not comply with these rules, and I didn't have the time or energy to understand what to do. So, I asked ChatGPT to help me with updating my manifest. Previously, my manifest.json
had this config section:
"browser_action": {
"default_icon": "cld.png",
"default_title": "A Line of code of the day."
}
The old config section has been replaced with the following sections:
"background": {
"service_worker": "service-worker.js"
},
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": ["https://cld.silvestar.codes/*"],
"js": ["content-script.js"]
}
],
I also requested ChatGPT to modify my JavaScript file to incorporate service workers, and it did it within seconds.
Here's how the whole manifest.json
file looks now:
{
"name": "Code Line Daily",
"version": "1.3",
"description": "Explore a new line of code every day.",
"manifest_version": 3,
"background": {
"service_worker": "service-worker.js"
},
"permissions": [
"activeTab"
],
"host_permissions": [
"https://cld.silvestar.codes/*"
],
"chrome_url_overrides": {
"newtab": "cld.html"
},
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": ["https://cld.silvestar.codes/*"],
"js": ["content-script.js"]
}
],
"icons": {
"16": "cld16.png",
"32": "cld32.png",
"48": "cld48.png",
"128": "cld128.png"
}
}
You can go ahead and install the Code Line Daily Chrome extension to display an awesome new line of code every time you open a new tab.
