Accessing Current Tab DOM Object from a Chrome Extension
I have been searching around on how to accomplish this. I have found some articles most notably
Accessing Current Tab DOM Object from "popup.html"?
However I am very new to JavaScript and making chrome extensions and I have hit a dead end.
My guess is that the response isn't being received which explains why document.write("Hellp")
isn't working. Any help to fix this up would be appreciated.
I have three main files
manifest.json
{
"name": "My First Extension",
"version": "1.0",
"description": "The first extension that I made.",
"browser_action":
{
"default_icon": "icon.png",
"popup": "popup.html"
},
"permissions":
[
"tabs"
],
"content_scripts":
[{
"matches": ["<all_urls>"],
"js": ["dom.js"]
}]
}
popup.html
<html>
<body>
</body>
<script>
chrome.tabs.getSelected(null, function(tab)
{
// Send a request to the content script.
chrome.tabs.sendRequest(tab.id, {action: "getDOM"}, function(response)
{
document.write("Hello");
document.write(response.title)
});
});
</script>
</html>
dom.js
chro开发者_如何学Cme.extension.onRequest.addListener(function(request, sender, sendResponse)
{
if (request.action == "getDOM")
sendResponse({dom: document.getElementsByTagName("body")[0]});
else
sendResponse({}); // Send nothing..
});
I see this is an older question, but it's unanswered and I ran into the same issue. Maybe it's a security feature, but you don't seem to be able to return a DOM object. You can, however, return text. So for dom.js:
chrome.extension.onRequest.addListener(function(request, sender, sendResponse) {
if (request.action == "getDOM")
sendResponse({dom: document.body.innerHTML});
else
sendResponse({}); // Send nothing..
});
I'm workin on an extension that transfers the html of the element as a text and then rebuilding the element back using innerHTML. Hope that clarifies how to get the DOM elements from the current page**
This is the way I've got the DOM:
Manifest.json
{
"manifest_version": 2,
"version" : "2.0",
"name": "Prettify search",
"description": "This extension shows a search result from the current page",
"icons":{
"128": "./img/icon128.png",
"48": "./img/icon48.png",
"16": "./img/icon16.png"
},
"page_action": {
"default_icon": "./img/icon16.png",
"default_popup": "popup.html",
"default_title": "Prettify Results!"
},
// If the context is the Mach url = sends a message to eventPage.js: active icon
"content_scripts": [
{
"matches": ["http://www.whatever.cat/*"],
"js": ["./js/content.js", "./js/jquery-3.1.1.min.js"]
}
],
"permissions": [
"tabs",
"http://www.whatever.cat/*",
"http://loripsum.net/*" //If you need to call and API here it goes
],
"background":{
"scripts": ["./js/eventPage.js"],
"persistent": false
}
}
Popup.js
$(function() {
chrome.tabs.query({active: true, currentWindow: true}, function(tabs) {
chrome.tabs.sendMessage(tabs[0].id, {action: "getPage"}, function(response) {
var importedCode = response.searchResults;
var fakeHtml = document.createElement( 'html' );
fakeHtml.innerHTML = importedCode; // recieved String becomes html
});
});
Eventpage.js
>Able/disable the extension button
chrome.runtime.onMessage.addListener(function(req, sender, resp) {
if(req.todo === 'showPageAction'){
chrome.tabs.query({active:true, currentWindow:true}, function(tabs) {
chrome.pageAction.show(tabs[0].id);
});
}
});
content.js
Content_Scripts can not use the Chrome API to enable or disable the >extension icon. We pass a message to Event_Page, js, he can indeed use the Api
chrome.runtime.sendMessage({ todo: "showPageAction"});
window.onload = function() {
chrome.runtime.onMessage.addListener(
function(request, sender, sendResponse) {
console.log(sender.tab ?
"from a content script:" + sender.tab.url :
"from the extension");
if (request.action == "getPage"){
sendResponse({searchResults: document.body.innerHTML});
}
});
};
popup.html
Just link popup.js
加载中,请稍侯......
