I have tried many ways( all documented procedures)to inject script into a specific page upon checking URL at onUpdated.addListener. Finally the below code with 'executescript' seems to work, but not perfectly. I could able to get alerts but can not able to find document elements of the page through getElementById/getElementsByName.
When I inspected the page, script is injected. But in error console I get:
Denying load of chrome-extension://jfeiadiicafjpmaefageabnpamkapdhe/js/Leoscript.js. Resources must be listed in the web_accessible_resources manifest key in order to be loaded by pages outside the extension.
Manifest.json:
{
"name": "Leo Extension for Job Boards",
"version": "1.6",
"manifest_version": 2,
"content_security_policy": "script-src 'self'; object-src 'self'",
"description": "Leo Extension",
"background": {
"scripts": ["js/Leojshelper.js"],
"persistent": true
},
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": ["<all_urls>"],
"js": ["js/eventPage.js"],
"run_at" : "document_start"
}
],
"icons":{"48":"images/bob48.png", "128":"images/bob128.png"}, //Define any icon sizes and the files that you want to use with them. 48/128 etc.
"browser_action": {
"default_icon": "images/bob.png", // What icon do you want to display on the chrome toolbar
"default_popup": "LeoExtwatch.html" // The page to popup when button clicked.
},
"permissions": [
"tabs", "<all_urls>" // "http://*/*","https://*/*" // Cross Site Access Requests
],
"web_accessible_resources": ["js/LeoScript.js"]
}
I have also given 'web_accessible_resources' permission to the script, but still no success. Code in background script:
chrome.tabs.onUpdated.addListener(function (tabId, changeInfo, tab) {
if (changeInfo.status == 'complete') {
if (tab.url.indexOf("in.yahoo") !== -1) {
chrome.tabs.update(tabId, { url: "https://login.yahoo.com/config/mail?.intl=us" });
chrome.tabs.executeScript(tabId, {
code: "document.body.appendChild(document.createElement('script')).src='" +
chrome.extension.getURL("js/LeoScript.js") + "';"
}, null);
Code in LeoScript.js, which will be injected into specific page.
$(document).ready(function () {
alert('injected');
document.getElementById('username').value='aaaaaaa';
});
Content Script :eventPage.js which I used to inject script.
var script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = chrome.extension.getURL("js/Leoscript.js");
(document.body || document.head || document.documentElement).appendChild(script);
Please point me at any changes in the above code that will solve the permission issues. Thanks in advance.
