I got this error when I run the code in chrome:
Uncaught ReferenceError: browser is not defined
I run other code this :
function onFulfilled(bookmarkItems) {
if (bookmarkItems.length) {
console.log("active tab is bookmarked");
} else {
console.log("active tab is not bookmarked");
}
}
function onRejected(error) {
console.log(`An error: ${error}`);
}
function checkActiveTab(tab) {
var searching = browser.bookmarks.search({url: tab.url});
searching.then(onFulfilled, onRejected);
}
browser.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(checkActiveTab);
from :here I got the same error.
Update question :
my manifest.json in this moment:
{
"name": "add site random",
"version": "1.0",
"description": "this is my first extension in production",
"manifest_version": 2
}
any idea because I have this error I am trying create a folder and add a site in my bookmarks from the code?

Reset to default 2From your recent edit and by looking at your manifest.json
it looks like you are missing few permissions
field,
Hence update your manifest.json
like this, (then package a new extension afresh)
{
"name": "add site random",
"version": "1.0",
"description": "this is my first extension in production",
"manifest_version": 2,
"background": {
"scripts": ["YOUR_BACKGROUND_SCRIPT_NAME.js"]
},
"permissions": [
"notifications",
"activeTab"
]
}
Hope this helps!
Aside from missing script calls within the manifest
file, which after checking the mented gist link appears to have been resolved (good catch @DavidR!), however, both versions of the question's code are still missing a reference to the manifest
file from within the html
's <head>
block, eg. something like <link rel="manifest" href="/manifest.webmanifest">
as suggested by Mozilla might just allow ya past the current issues.
For pleteness sake the following is what I perpose you do to that index.html
file...
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="manifest" href="/manifest.webmanifest">
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
... and I'll also suggest renaming the manifest
file to have the webmanifest
extension because of reasons related to the specification.
