# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
|
||||
|
||||
## Our Pledge
|
||||
|
||||
We as members, contributors, and leaders pledge to make participation in our
|
||||
community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
|
||||
size, visible or invisible disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender
|
||||
identity and expression, level of experience, education, socio-economic status,
|
||||
nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity
|
||||
and orientation.
|
||||
|
||||
We pledge to act and interact in ways that contribute to an open, welcoming,
|
||||
diverse, inclusive, and healthy community.
|
||||
|
||||
## Our Standards
|
||||
|
||||
Examples of behavior that contributes to a positive environment for our
|
||||
community include:
|
||||
|
||||
- Demonstrating empathy and kindness toward other people
|
||||
- Being respectful of differing opinions, viewpoints, and experiences
|
||||
- Giving and gracefully accepting constructive feedback
|
||||
- Accepting responsibility and apologizing to those affected by our mistakes,
|
||||
and learning from the experience
|
||||
- Focusing on what is best not just for us as individuals, but for the
|
||||
overall community
|
||||
|
||||
Examples of unacceptable behavior include:
|
||||
|
||||
- The use of sexualized language or imagery, and sexual attention or
|
||||
advances of any kind
|
||||
- Trolling, insulting or derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
|
||||
- Public or private harassment
|
||||
- Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or email
|
||||
address, without their explicit permission
|
||||
- Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
|
||||
professional setting
|
||||
|
||||
## Enforcement Responsibilities
|
||||
|
||||
Community leaders are responsible for clarifying and enforcing our standards of
|
||||
acceptable behavior and will take appropriate and fair corrective action in
|
||||
response to any behavior that they deem inappropriate, threatening, offensive,
|
||||
or harmful.
|
||||
|
||||
Community leaders have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or reject
|
||||
comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions that are
|
||||
not aligned to this Code of Conduct, and will communicate reasons for moderation
|
||||
decisions when appropriate.
|
||||
|
||||
## Scope
|
||||
|
||||
This Code of Conduct applies within all community spaces, and also applies when
|
||||
an individual is officially representing the community in public spaces.
|
||||
Examples of representing our community include using an official e-mail address,
|
||||
posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
|
||||
representative at an online or offline event.
|
||||
|
||||
## Enforcement
|
||||
|
||||
Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
|
||||
reported to the community leaders responsible for enforcement at
|
||||
aaronklinker1@gmail.com.
|
||||
All complaints will be reviewed and investigated promptly and fairly.
|
||||
|
||||
All community leaders are obligated to respect the privacy and security of the
|
||||
reporter of any incident.
|
||||
|
||||
## Enforcement Guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
Community leaders will follow these Community Impact Guidelines in determining
|
||||
the consequences for any action they deem in violation of this Code of Conduct:
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Correction
|
||||
|
||||
**Community Impact**: Use of inappropriate language or other behavior deemed
|
||||
unprofessional or unwelcome in the community.
|
||||
|
||||
**Consequence**: A private, written warning from community leaders, providing
|
||||
clarity around the nature of the violation and an explanation of why the
|
||||
behavior was inappropriate. A public apology may be requested.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Warning
|
||||
|
||||
**Community Impact**: A violation through a single incident or series
|
||||
of actions.
|
||||
|
||||
**Consequence**: A warning with consequences for continued behavior. No
|
||||
interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction with
|
||||
those enforcing the Code of Conduct, for a specified period of time. This
|
||||
includes avoiding interactions in community spaces as well as external channels
|
||||
like social media. Violating these terms may lead to a temporary or
|
||||
permanent ban.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Temporary Ban
|
||||
|
||||
**Community Impact**: A serious violation of community standards, including
|
||||
sustained inappropriate behavior.
|
||||
|
||||
**Consequence**: A temporary ban from any sort of interaction or public
|
||||
communication with the community for a specified period of time. No public or
|
||||
private interaction with the people involved, including unsolicited interaction
|
||||
with those enforcing the Code of Conduct, is allowed during this period.
|
||||
Violating these terms may lead to a permanent ban.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Permanent Ban
|
||||
|
||||
**Community Impact**: Demonstrating a pattern of violation of community
|
||||
standards, including sustained inappropriate behavior, harassment of an
|
||||
individual, or aggression toward or disparagement of classes of individuals.
|
||||
|
||||
**Consequence**: A permanent ban from any sort of public interaction within
|
||||
the community.

# Development
|
||||
|
||||
WXT's main goal is providing the best DX it possibly can. When running your extension in dev mode, each part of your extension is reloaded separately when possible.

||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Dev Mode vs Production Builds
|
||||
|
||||
There are some notable differences between the development and production versions of an extension. During development:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Content scripts are not listed in the `manifest.json`** when targeting MV3. Instead, the [`scripting`](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/api/scripting) permission is used to register content scripts at runtime so they can be reloaded individually.
|
||||
|
||||
To get the list of content scripts during development, run the following in the background's console:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
await chrome.scripting.getRegisteredContentScripts();
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **The CSP is modified to allow loading scripts from the dev server**. Make sure you're using Chrome v110 or above for HMR to work.
|
||||
|
||||
3. If you don't include a background script/service worker, one will be created to perform various tasks in dev mode, mostly related to reloading different parts of the extension on change.
|
||||
|
||||
For production builds, none of the above modifications will be applied, and you're extension/manifest will only include what you have defined.
|
||||
|
||||
## Configure Browser Startup
|
||||
|
||||
WXT uses [`web-ext` by Mozilla](https://github.com/mozilla/web-ext) to automatically open a browser with the extension installed. You can configure the runner's behavior via the [`runner`](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/InlineConfig#runner) option, or in a separate gitignored file, `web-ext.config.ts`.
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [wxt.config.ts]
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
runner: {
|
||||
// Runner config
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [web-ext.config.ts]
|
||||
import { defineRunnerConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
// Runner config
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Browser Binaries
|
||||
|
||||
`web-ext`'s browser discovery is very limited. By default, it only guesses at where Chrome and Firefox are installed. If you've customized your install locations, you may need to tell `web-ext` where the binaries/executables are located using the [`binaries` option](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/ExtensionRunnerConfig#binaries). For other Chromium based browsers, like Edge or Opera, you'll need to explicitly list them in the `binaries` option as well, otherwise they will open in Chrome by default.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// ~/web-ext.config.ts
|
||||
import { defineRunnerConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
binaries: {
|
||||
chrome: '/path/to/chrome-beta', // Use Chrome Beta instead of regular Chrome
|
||||
firefox: 'firefoxdeveloperedition', // Use Firefox Developer Edition instead of regular Firefox
|
||||
edge: '/path/to/edge', // Open MS Edge when running "wxt -b edge"
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
When configuring browser binaries, it's helpful to put them in `~/web-ext.config.ts` instead of the project directory's `web-ext.config.ts` file. When placed in your home directory (`~/`), this config will be used by all WXT projects, so you only need to configure the binaries once.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Other options
|
||||
|
||||
You can customize other options as well, like startup URLs, profiles, or additional command line arguments:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// web-ext.config.ts
|
||||
import { defineRunnerConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
startUrls: ['https://google.com', 'https://duckduckgo.com'],
|
||||
chromiumProfile: '/path/to/profile/to/use',
|
||||
chromiumArgs: ['--window-size=400,300'],
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
For a full list of options, see the [API Reference](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/ExtensionRunnerConfig).
|
||||
|
||||
## Reload the Extension
|
||||
|
||||
Normally, to manually reload an extension, you have to visit `chrome://extensions` and click the reload button for your extension.
|
||||
|
||||
When running `wxt` command to start the dev server, WXT adds a keyboard shortcut `Alt+R`, that reloads the extension when pressed, without visiting `chrome://extensions`. This can also be customized or disabled:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [wxt.config.ts]
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
dev: {
|
||||
reloadCommand: 'Alt+T', // false, to disable
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
This shortcut is only available during development, and is not be added to your extension when running `wxt build` or `wxt-zip`.

# Assets
|
||||
|
||||
WXT has two directories for storing assets like CSS, images, or fonts.
|
||||
|
||||
- [public directory](/guide/directory-structure/public/): Store files that will be copied into the output directory as-is
|
||||
- [assets directory](/guide/directory-structure/assets): Store files that will be processed by Vite during the build process
|
||||
|
||||
To learn more about how to use assets at runtime from either of these directories, visit their guides linked above.
|
||||
|
||||
## Public Directory
|
||||
|
||||
Place static files like the extension icon or `_locales/` directory here. These files will be copied over to the output directory without being transformed by Vite.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
<srcDir>
|
||||
└─ public/
|
||||
├─ icon-16.png
|
||||
├─ icon-32.png
|
||||
├─ icon-48.png
|
||||
├─ icon-96.png
|
||||
└─ icon-128.png
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Assets Directory
|
||||
|
||||
Files in the assets directory will be processed by Vite. They are imported in your source code, and will be transformed or renamed in the output directory.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
<srcDir>
|

# Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
By default, WXT provides sensible configuration for bundling web extensions with Vite.
|
||||
|
||||
## Config File
|
||||
|
||||
To configure WXT, create a `wxt.config.ts` file in your project root. It should have the following contents:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
// My WXT config
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
For more information on configuring WXT via the `wxt.config.ts` file, read the dedicated [`wxt.config.ts` guide](/guide/directory-structure/wxt-config).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Manifest.json
|
||||
|
||||
WXT generates your extension's `manifest.json` based on the project structure. To add additional properties, like permissions, use the [`manifest` property](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/InlineConfig#manifest).
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
permissions: ['storage'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
For more information on configuring the manifest, read the dedicated [Manifest guide](/guide/key-concepts/manifest).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Environment
|
||||
|
||||
WXT can read `.env` files, and variables are accessible via `import.meta.env.*`.
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||

# Entrypoints
|
||||
|
||||
An "entrypoint" is any HTML, JS, or CSS file that needs to be bundled and included with your extension, which will be loaded and executed by the browser.
|
||||
|
||||
## Defining Entrypoints
|
||||
|
||||
In WXT, you create an entrypoint by adding a file to the `entrypoints/` directory.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
<rootDir>
|
||||
└─ entrypoints/
|
||||
├─ background.ts
|
||||
├─ content.ts
|
||||
├─ injected.ts
|
||||
└─ popup.html
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Some entrypoint filesname patterns are reserved by WXT and effect how the manifest is generated.
|
||||
|
||||
- `popup` adds an `action` to the manifest
|
||||
- `background` adds a background script/service worker
|
||||
- `*.content.ts` adds a content script
|
||||
- ...
|
||||
|
||||
> For a full list of recognized filenames, see the the [Entrypoints Directory guide](/guide/directory-structure/entrypoints/background).
|
||||
|
||||
Any other files, whether JS, CSS, or HTML, is considered "unlisted". Unlisted files, like `injected.ts` from above, are just bundled to the output directory and not added to the manifest. You can still access or load them at runtime.
|
||||
|
||||
## Entrypoint Options
|
||||
|
||||
Most entrypoints allow customizing their options in the file you define them in. This differs from regular web extension development, where all options are placed in the `manifest.json`.
|
||||
|
||||
WXT looks for custom options in the entrypoint, and adds them to the manifest when generated.
|
||||
|
||||
In HTML files, options are listed as `meta` tags:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<html>
|
||||
<head>
|
||||
<!-- Defining the popup's "default_icon" field -->
|
||||
<meta name="manifest.default_icon" content="{ '16': '/icon/16.png' }" />
|
||||
</head>
|
||||
</html>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In TS files, options are apart of the file's default export:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: ['*://*.google.com/*'],
|
||||
runAt: 'document_start',
|
||||
main() {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```

||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
```sh [pnpm]
|
||||
pnpm init
|
||||

|
||||
yarn add --dev wxt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```sh [bun]
|
||||
bun init
|
||||
bun add --dev wxt
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Add your first entrypoint:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/background.ts
|
||||
export default defineBackground(() => {
|
||||
console.log(`Hello from ${browser.runtime.id}!`);
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And add scripts to your `package.json`:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"scripts": {
|
||||
"dev": "wxt", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"dev:firefox": "wxt --browser firefox", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"build": "wxt build", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"build:firefox": "wxt build --browser firefox", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"zip": "wxt zip", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"zip:firefox": "wxt zip --browser firefox", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"postinstall": "wxt prepare" // [!code ++]
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Development
|
||||
|
||||
Once the project is setup, you can start the development server using the `dev` script.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
pnpm dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip 🎉 Well done!
|
||||
The dev command will build the extension for development, open the browser, and reload the different parts of the extension when you save changes.

# Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
WXT is a free and open source framework for building web extensions in an conventional, intuitive, and safe way **_for all browsers_**.
|
||||
|
||||
WXT is based on [Nuxt](https://nuxt.com), and aims to provide the same great DX with TypeScript, auto-imports, and an opinionated project structure.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Conventions
|
||||
|
||||
WXT is an opinionated framework. This helps keep projects consistent and easy to pick up.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Generated manifest**: Based on your project's file structure
|
||||
- **Entrypoint configuration**: Configure entrypoints from the same file they're declare in
|
||||
- **Type-safety is a priority**: Out-of-the-box TypeScript support with improved browser API typing
|
||||
- **Simple output file structure**: Output file paths minimize the path at runtime
|
||||
|
||||
## Development
|
||||
|
||||
WXT's dev server supports modern features like HMR to provide a lighting fast dev mode.
|
||||
|
||||
When changes can't be hot-reloaded, like content scripts or background scripts, they're reloaded individually to prevent reloading the entire extension and slowing down your development cycle.
|
||||
|
||||
## Production-ready
|
||||
|
||||
Production builds are optimized for store review, changing as few files as possible between builds.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition, WXT fully supports Firefox's source code requirements when using a bundler. It will automatically create and upload a ZIP file of your source code.

||||

:::warning Nuxt Users
|
||||
If you're familiar with Nuxt, this file is meant to be a direct equivalent to Nuxt's `app.config.ts` file.
|
||||
|
||||
However, some of Nuxt's features, like overriding the app config based on a `.env` file or automatically generating the config's types, are not implemented. They are planned, just not implemented yet. Feel free to open a PR!
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Define runtime configuration in a single place.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// <srcDir>/app.config.ts
|
||||
import { defineAppConfig } from 'wxt/sandbox';
|
||||
|
||||
// Define types for your config
|
||||
declare module 'wxt/sandbox' {
|
||||
export interface WxtAppConfig {
|
||||
theme?: 'light' | 'dark';
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineAppConfig({
|
||||
theme: 'dark',
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then access the config in your extension by calling `useAppConfig`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
console.log(useAppConfig()); // { theme: "dark" }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
If you have a `.env` file, you can access any variables defined in it here. You can convert them to better types (like booleans), add types for them, or leave them as is.
|
||||
|
||||
```txt
|
||||
# .env
|
||||
VITE_BUG_REPORTING_DISABLED=true
|
||||
VITE_API_KEY=...
|
||||

|
||||

||||

|
||||
// <srcDir>/app.config.ts

||||
declare module 'wxt/sandbox' {
|
||||
export interface WxtAppConfig {

||||
bugReportingDisabled: boolean;
|
||||
apiKey?: string;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineAppConfig({
|
||||
bugReportingDisabled: import.meta.env.VITE_BUG_REPORTING_DISABLED === 'true',
|
||||
apiKey: import.meta.env.VITE_API_KEY,
|
||||

> All manifest options default to `undefined`.
|
||||
|
||||
When defining multiple content scripts, content script entrypoints that have the same set of options will be merged into a single `content_script` item in the manifest.
|
||||
|
||||
## CSS
|
||||
|
||||
To include CSS with your content script, import the CSS file at the top of your entrypoint.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<srcDir>/
|
||||
└─ entrypoints/
|
||||
└─ overlay.content/
|
||||
├─ index.ts
|
||||
└─ style.css
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/overlay.content/index.ts
|
||||
import './style.css';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: ['*://google.com/*', '*://duckduckgo.com/*'],
|
||||
|
||||
main(ctx) {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Any styles imported in your content script will be added to that content script's `css` array in your `manifest.json`:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
// .output/chrome-mv3/manifest.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"content_scripts": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"matches": ["*://google.com/*", "*://duckduckgo.com/*"],
|
||||
"js": ["content-scripts/overlay.js"],
|
||||
"css": ["content-scripts/overlay.css"]
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To disable this behavior, set `cssInjectionMode` to `"manual"` or `"ui"`.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: ['*://google.com/*', '*://duckduckgo.com/*'],
|
||||
cssInjectionMode: 'manual',
|
||||

||||
main(ctx) {
|

// ...

||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||

# CSS
|
||||
|
||||
WXT can build CSS entrypoints individually. CSS entrypoints are always unlisted.
|
||||
|
||||
See [Content Script CSS](/guide/directory-structure/entrypoints/content-scripts#css) documentation for the recommended approach to include CSS with a content script.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
If the recommended approach doesn't work for your use case, you can use any of the filename patterns below to build the styles separate from the JS and use the [`transformManifest` hook](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/InlineConfig#transformmanifest) to manually add your CSS file to the manifest.

# `web-ext.config.ts`
|
||||
|
||||
This file lets you configure the browser startup when running `wxt dev`.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineRunnerConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
startUrls: ['https://google.com', 'https://youtube.com'],
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
There are three places you can customize the runner:
|
||||
|
||||
- `<root>/wxt.config.ts` - Use the `runner` option. Changes here will be committed and shared with everyone developing the project.
|
||||
- `<root>/web-ext.config.ts` - A gitignored file for you to customize the startup behavior to your liking without effecting others
|
||||
- `$HOME/web-ext.config.ts` - Stores system-wide config effecting all projects running on your machine.
|
||||
|
||||
See below examples on how to accomplish common configuration:
|
||||
|
||||
[[toc]]
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuring Binaries
|
||||
|
||||
`web-ext`'s browser discovery is very limited. By default, it only guesses at where Chrome and Firefox are installed. If you've customized your install locations, you may need to tell `web-ext` where the binaries/executables are located using the [`binaries` option](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/ExtensionRunnerConfig#binaries). For other Chromium based browsers, like Edge or Opera, you'll need to explicitly list them in the `binaries` option as well, otherwise they will open in Chrome by default.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineRunnerConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
binaries: {
|
||||
chrome: '/path/to/chrome-beta', // Use Chrome Beta instead of regular Chrome
|
||||
firefox: 'firefoxdeveloperedition', // Use Firefox Developer Edition instead of regular Firefox
|
||||
edge: '/path/to/edge', // Open MS Edge when running "wxt -b edge"
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Disable Opening Browser
|
||||
|
||||
Disabling the browser can be useful if it's difficult to develop your extension with fresh profiles. Maybe you need to sign into a website to see a content script run, and a fresh profile isn't helpful because it doesn't save your login info.
|
||||
|
||||
To disable opening the extension automatically in a new window, just disable the runner:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
disabled: true,
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Profile Customization
|
||||
|
||||
Another option, instead of disabling the runner, to stay logged into websites is to use a custom profile.
|
||||
|
||||
`web-ext` comes with some built-in ways of using an existing profile, but it's not really using the same profile. It copies the profile to a temp directory, and uses that.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead, I've found it's better to pass Chrome's `--user-data-dir` argument. This let's you use a fresh profile initially, and customize it to your liking. You can install devtool extensions, set custom flags, and log into websites. Next time you run the extension in dev mode, all that will be remembered!
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
chromiumArgs: ['--user-data-dir=./chrome-data'],
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> This only works for Chrome. You'll have to use `firefoxProfile` option instead, which has the same limitations mentioned above, where you won't be signed into websites automatically.

||||
|
||||
## Inside Content Scripts
|
||||
|
||||
Assets inside content scripts are a little different. By default, when you import an asset, it returns just the path to the asset. This is because Vite assumes you're loading assets from the same hostname.
|
||||
|
||||
But, inside content scripts, the hostname is whatever the tab is set to. So if you try to fetch the asset, manually or as an `<img>`'s `src`, it will be loaded from the tab's website, not your extension.
|
||||
|
||||
To fix this, you need to convert the image to a full URL using `browser.runtime.getURL`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/content.ts
|
||||
import iconUrl from '/icon/128.png';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: ['*://*.google.com/*'],
|
||||
main() {
|
||||
console.log(iconUrl); // "/icon/128.png"
|
||||
console.log(browser.runtime.getURL(iconUrl)); // "chrome-extension://<id>/icon/128.png"
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## WASM
|
||||
|
||||
How a `.wasm` file is loaded varies greatly between packages, but most follow a basic setup: Use a JS API to load and execute the `.wasm` file.
|
||||
|
||||
For an extension, that means two things:
|
||||
|
||||
1. The `.wasm` file needs to be present in output folder so it can be loaded.
|
||||
2. You must import the JS API to load and initialize the `.wasm` file, usually provided by the NPM package.
|
||||
|
||||
For an example, let's say you have a content script needs to parse TS code into AST. We'll use [`@oxc-parser/wasm`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@oxc-parser/wasm) to do it!
|
||||
|
||||
First, we need to copy the `.wasm` file to the output directory. We'll do it with a [WXT module](/guide/essentials/wxt-modules):
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// modules/oxc-parser-wasm.ts
|
||||
import { resolve } from 'node:path';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule((wxt) => {
|
||||
wxt.hook('build:publicAssets', (_, assets) => {
|
||||
assets.push({
|
||||
absoluteSrc: resolve(
|
||||
'node_modules/@oxc-parser/wasm/web/oxc_parser_wasm_bg.wasm',
|
||||
),
|
||||
relativeDest: 'oxc_parser_wasm_bg.wasm',
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Run `wxt build`, and you should see the WASM file copied into your `.output/chrome-mv3` folder!
|
||||
|
||||
Next, since this is in a content script and we'll be fetching the WASM file over the network to load it, we need to add the file to the `web_accessible_resources`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
web_accessible_resources: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
// We'll use this matches in the cotent script as well
|
||||
matches: ['*://*.github.com/*'],
|
||||
// Use the same path as `relativeDest` from the WXT module
|
||||
resources: ['/oxc_parser_wasm_bg.wasm'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And finally, we need to load and initialize the `.wasm` file inside the content script to use it:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/content.ts
|
||||
import initWasm, { parseSync } from '@oxc-parser/wasm';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: '*://*.github.com/*',
|
||||
async main(ctx) {
|
||||
if (!location.pathname.endsWith('.ts')) return;
|
||||
|
||||
// Get text from GitHub
|
||||
const code = document.getElementById(
|
||||
'read-only-cursor-text-area',
|
||||
)?.textContent;
|
||||
if (!code) return;
|
||||
const sourceFilename = document.getElementById('file-name-id')?.textContent;
|
||||
if (!sourceFilename) return;
|
||||
|
||||
// Load the WASM file:
|
||||
await initWasm({
|
||||
module_or_path: browser.runtime.getURL('/oxc_parser_wasm_bg.wasm'),
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Once loaded, we can use `parseSync`!
|
||||
const ast = parseSync(code, { sourceFilename });
|
||||
console.log(ast);
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This code is taken directly from `@oxc-parser/wasm` docs with one exception: We manually pass in a file path. In a standard NodeJS or web project, the default path works just fine so you don't have to pass anything in. However, extensions are different. You should always explicitly pass in the full URL to the WASM file in your output directory, which is what `browser.runtime.getURL` returns.
|
||||
|
||||
Run your extension, and you should see OXC parse the TS file!

# Auto-imports
|
||||
|
||||
WXT uses [`unimport`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/unimport), the same tool as Nuxt, to setup auto-imports.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
// See https://www.npmjs.com/package/unimport#configurations
|
||||
imports: {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
By default, WXT automatically setups up auto-imports for all of it's own APIs:
|
||||
|
||||
- [`browser`](/api/reference/wxt/browser/variables/browser) from `wxt/browser`
|
||||
- [`defineContentScript`](/api/reference/wxt/sandbox/functions/defineContentScript) from `wxt/sandbox`
|
||||
- [`defineBackground`](/api/reference/wxt/sandbox/functions/defineBackground) from `wxt/sandbox`
|
||||
- [`defineUnlistedScript`](/api/reference/wxt/sandbox/functions/defineUnlistedScript) from `wxt/sandbox`
|
||||
- [`createIntegratedUi`](/api/reference/wxt/client/functions/createIntegratedUi) from `wxt/client`
|
||||
- [`createShadowRootUi`](/api/reference/wxt/client/functions/createShadowRootUi) from `wxt/client`
|
||||
- [`createIframeUi`](/api/reference/wxt/client/functions/createIframeUi) from `wxt/client`
|
||||
- [`fakeBrowser`](/api/reference/wxt/testing/variables/fakeBrowser) from `wxt/testing`
|
||||
- And more!
|
||||
|
||||
WXT also adds some project directories as auto-import sources automatically:
|
||||
|
||||
- `<srcDir>/components/*`
|
||||
- `<srcDir>/composables/*`
|
||||
- `<srcDir>/hooks/*`
|
||||
- `<srcDir>/utils/*`
|
||||
|
||||
All named and default exports from files in these directories are available everywhere else in your project without having to import them.
|
||||
|
||||
## TypeScript
|
||||
|
||||
For TypeScript and your editor to recognize auto-imported variables, you need to run the [`wxt prepare` command](/api/cli/wxt-prepare).
|
||||
|
||||
Add this command to your `postinstall` script so your editor has everything it needs to report type errors after installing dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
// package.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"scripts": {
|
||||
"postinstall": "wxt prepare", // [!code ++]
|
||||
},
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## ESLint
|
||||
|
||||
ESLint doesn't know about the auto-imported variables unless they are explicitly defined in the ESLint's `globals`. By default, WXT will generate the config if it detects ESLint is installed in your project. If the config isn't generated automatically, you can manually tell WXT to generate it.

# Browser Startup
|
||||
|
||||
> See the [API Reference](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/ExtensionRunnerConfig) for a full list of config.
|
||||
|
||||
During development WXT uses [`web-ext` by Mozilla](https://www.npmjs.com/package/web-ext) to automatically open a browser window with your extension installed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Config Files
|
||||
|
||||
You can configure browser startup in 3 places:
|
||||
|
||||
1. `<rootDir>/web-ext.config.ts`: Ignored from version control, this file lets you configure your own options for a specific project without affecting other developers
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineRunnerConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. `<rootDir>/wxt.config.ts`: Via the [`runner` config](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/InlineConfig#runner), included in version control
|
||||
3. `$HOME/web-ext.config.ts`: Provide default values for all WXT projects on your computer
|
||||
|
||||
## Recipes
|
||||
|
||||
### Set Browser Binaries
|
||||
|
||||
To set or customize the browser opened during development:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
binaries: {
|
||||
chrome: '/path/to/chrome-beta', // Use Chrome Beta instead of regular Chrome
|
||||
firefox: 'firefoxdeveloperedition', // Use Firefox Developer Edition instead of regular Firefox
|
||||
edge: '/path/to/edge', // Open MS Edge when running "wxt -b edge"
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Persist Data
|
||||
|
||||
By default, to keep from modifying your browser's existing profiles, `web-ext` creates a brand new profile every time you run the `dev` script.
|
||||
|
||||
Right now, Chromium based browsers are the only browsers that support overriding this behavior and persisting data when running the `dev` script multiple times.
|
||||
|
||||
To persist data, set the `--user-data-dir` flag:
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [Mac/Linux]
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
chromiumArgs: ['--user-data-dir=./.wxt/chrome-data'],
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [Windows]
|
||||
import { resolve } from 'node:path';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
// On Windows, the path must be absolute
|
||||
chromiumProfile: resolve('.wxt/chrome-data'),
|
||||
keepProfileChanges: true,
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Now, next time you run the `dev` script, a persistent profile will be created in `.wxt/chrome-data/{profile-name}`. With a persistent profile, you can install devtools extensions to help with development, allow the browser to remember logins, etc, without worrying about the profile being reset the next time you run the `dev` script.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
You can use any directory you'd like for `--user-data-dir`, the examples above create a persistent profile for each WXT project. To create a profile for all WXT projects, you can put the `chrome-data` directory inside you're user's home directory.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Disable Opening Browser
|
||||
|
||||
If you prefer to load the extension into your browser manually, you can disable the auto-open behavior:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineRunnerConfig({
|
||||
disabled: true,
|
||||
});

# Build Modes
|
||||
|
||||
Because WXT is powered by Vite, it supports [modes](https://vite.dev/guide/env-and-mode.html#modes) in the same way.
|
||||
|
||||
When running any dev or build commands, pass the `--mode` flag:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
wxt --mode production
|
||||
wxt build --mode development
|
||||
wxt zip --mode testing
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
By default, `--mode` is `development` for the dev command and `production` for all other commands (build, zip, etc).
|
||||
|
||||
## Get Mode at Runtime
|
||||
|
||||
You can access the current mode in your extension using `import.meta.env.MODE`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
switch (import.meta.env.MODE) {
|
||||
case 'development': // ...
|
||||
case 'production': // ...
|
||||
|
||||
// Custom modes specified with --mode
|
||||
case 'testing': // ...
|
||||
case 'staging': // ...

// ...

# Entrypoint Loaders
|
||||
|
||||
To generate the manifest and other files at build-time, WXT must import each entrypoint to get their options, like content script `matches`. For HTML files, this is easy. For JS/TS entrypoints, the process is more complicated.
|
||||
|
||||
When loading your JS/TS entrypoints, they are imported into a NodeJS environment, not the `browser` environment that they normally run in. This can lead to issues commonly seen when running browser-only code in a NodeJS environment, like missing global variables.
|
||||
|
||||
WXT does several pre-processing steps to try and prevent errors during this process:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Use `linkedom` to make a small set of browser globals (`window`, `document`, etc) available.
|
||||
2. Use `@webext-core/fake-browser` to create a fake version of the `chrome` and `browser` globals expected by extensions.
|
||||
3. Pre-process the JS/TS code, stripping out the `main` function then tree-shaking unused code from the file
|
||||
|
||||
However, this process is not perfect. It doesn't setup all the globals found in the browser and the APIs may behave differently. As such, **_you should avoid using browser or extension APIs outside the `main` function of your entrypoints!_**
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
If you're running into errors while importing entrypoints, run `wxt prepare --debug` to see more details about this process. When debugging, WXT will print out the pre-processed code to help you identify issues.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Once the environment has been polyfilled and your code pre-processed, it's up the entrypoint loader to import your code, extracting the options from the default export.
|
||||
|
||||
There are two options for loading your entrypoints:
|
||||
|
||||
1. `vite-node` - default as of `v0.19.0`
|
||||
2. `jiti` (**DEPRECATED, will be removed in `v0.20.0`**) - Default before `v0.19.0`
|
||||
|
||||
## vite-node
|
||||
|
||||
Since 0.19.0, WXT uses `vite-node`, the same tool that powers Vitest and Nuxt, to import your entrypoint files. It re-uses the same vite config used when building your extension, making it the most stable entrypoint loader.
|
||||
|
||||
## jiti
|
||||
|
||||
To enable `jiti`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
entrypointLoader: 'jiti',
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This is the original method WXT used to import TS files. However, because it doesn't support vite plugins like `vite-node`, it does one additional pre-processing step: It removes **_ALL_** imports from your code.
|
||||
|
||||
That means you cannot use imported variables outside the `main` function in JS entrypoints, like for content script `matches` or other options:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/content.ts
|
||||
import { GOOGLE_MATCHES } from '~/utils/match-patterns';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: GOOGLE_MATCHES,
|
||||
main() {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||

```
|
||||
|
||||
Usually, this error occurs when you try to extract options into a shared file or when running code outside the `main` function. To fix the example from above, use literal values when defining an entrypoint instead of importing them:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { GOOGLE_MATCHES } from '~/utils/match-patterns'; // [!code --]
|

# Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
## Dotenv Files
|
||||
|
||||
WXT supports [dotenv files the same way as Vite](https://vite.dev/guide/env-and-mode.html#env-files). Create any of the following files:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
.env
|
||||
.env.local
|
||||
.env.[mode]
|
||||
.env.[mode].local
|
||||
.env.[browser]
|
||||
.env.[browser].local
|
||||
.env.[mode].[browser]
|
||||
.env.[mode].[browser].local
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And any environment variables listed inside them will be available at runtime:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
# .env
|
||||
WXT_API_KEY=...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
await fetch(`/some-api?apiKey=${import.meta.env.WXT_API_KEY}`);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Remember to prefix any environment variables with `WXT_` or `VITE_`, otherwise they won't be available at runtime, as per [Vite's convention](https://vite.dev/guide/env-and-mode.html#env-files).
|
||||
|
||||
## Built-in Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
WXT provides some custom environment variables based on the current command:
|
||||
|
||||
| Usage | Type | Description |
|
||||
| ---------------------------------- | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.MANIFEST_VERSION` | `2 │ 3` | The target manifest version |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.BROWSER` | `string` | The target browser |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.CHROME` | `boolean` | Equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "chrome"` |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.FIREFOX` | `boolean` | Equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "firefox"` |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.SAFARI` | `boolean` | Equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "safari"` |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.EDGE` | `boolean` | Equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "edge"` |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.OPERA` | `boolean` | Equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "opera"` |
|
||||
|
||||
You can also access all of [Vite's environment variables](https://vite.dev/guide/env-and-mode.html#env-variables):
|
||||
|
||||
| Usage | Type | Description |
|
||||
| ---------------------- | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.MODE` | `string` | The [mode](/guide/essentials/config/build-mode) the extension is running in |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.PROD` | `boolean` | When `NODE_ENV='production'` |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.DEV` | `boolean` | Opposite of `import.meta.env.PROD` |
|
||||
|
||||
:::details Other Vite Environment Variables
|
||||
Vite provides two other environment variables, but they aren't useful in WXT projects:
|
||||
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.BASE_URL`: Use `browser.runtime.getURL` instead.
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.SSR`: Always `false`.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Manifest
|
||||
|
||||
To use environment variables in the manifest, you need to use the function syntax:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
extensionApi: 'chrome',
|
||||
modules: ['@wxt-dev/module-vue'],
|
||||
manifest: { // [!code --]
|
||||
oauth2: { // [!code --]
|
||||
client_id: import.meta.env.WXT_APP_CLIENT_ID // [!code --]
|
||||
} // [!code --]
|
||||
} // [!code --]
|
||||
manifest: () => ({ // [!code ++]
|
||||
oauth2: { // [!code ++]
|
||||
client_id: import.meta.env.WXT_APP_CLIENT_ID // [!code ++]
|
||||
} // [!code ++]
|
||||
}), // [!code ++]
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
WXT can't load your `.env` files until after the config file has been loaded. So by using the function syntax for `manifest`, it defers creating the object until after the `.env` files are loaded into the process.

# Hooks
|
||||
|
||||
WXT includes a system that lets you hook into the build process and make changes.
|
||||
|
||||
## Adding Hooks
|
||||
|
||||
The easiest way to add a hook is via the `wxt.config.ts`. Here's an example hook that modifies the `manifest.json` file before it is written to the output directory:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
hooks: {
|
||||
'build:manifestGenerated': (wxt, manifest) => {
|
||||
if (wxt.config.mode === 'development') {
|
||||
manifest.title += ' (DEV)';
|
||||
}
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Most hooks provide the `wxt` object as the first argument. It contains the resolved config and other info about the current build. The other arguments can be modified by reference to change different parts of the build system.
|
||||
|
||||
Putting one-off hooks like this in your config file is simple, but if you find yourself writing lots of hooks, you should extract them into [WXT Modules](/guide/essentials/wxt-modules) instead.
|
||||
|
||||
## Execution Order
|
||||
|
||||
Because hooks can be defined in multiple places, including [WXT Modules](/guide/essentials/wxt-modules), the order which they're executed can matter. Hooks are executed in the following order:
|
||||
|
||||
1. NPM modules in the order listed in the [`modules` config](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/InlineConfig#modules)
|
||||
2. User modules in [`/modules` folder](/guide/essentials/project-structure), loaded alphabetically
|
||||
3. Hooks listed in your `wxt.config.ts`
|
||||
|
||||
To see the order for your project, run `wxt prepare --debug` flag and search for the "Hook execution order":
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
⚙ Hook execution order:
|
||||
⚙ 1. wxt:built-in:unimport
|
||||
⚙ 2. src/modules/auto-icons.ts
|
||||
⚙ 3. src/modules/example.ts
|
||||
⚙ 4. src/modules/i18n.ts
|
||||
⚙ 5. wxt.config.ts > hooks
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Changing execution order is simple:
|
||||
|
||||
- Prefix your user modules with a number (lower numbers are loaded first):
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html
|
||||
📁 modules/
|
||||
📄 0.my-module.ts
|
||||
📄 1.another-module.ts
|
||||
```
|
||||
- If you need to run an NPM module after user modules, just make it a user module and prefix the filename with a number!
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// modules/2.i18n.ts
|
||||
export { default } from '@wxt-dev/i18n/module';

# Manifest
|
||||
|
||||
In WXT, there is no `manifest.json` file in your source code. Instead, WXT generates it during the build process based off files in your project.
|
||||
|
||||
## Manifest Config
|
||||
|
||||
To manually add a property to the `manifest.json` output during builds, use the `manifest` config inside `wxt.config.ts`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
// Put manual changes here
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also define the manifest as a function, and use JS to generate it based on the target browser, mode, and more.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: ({ browser, manifestVersion, mode, command }) => {
|
||||
return {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
};
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### MV2 and MV3 Compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
When adding properties to the manifest, always define the property in it's MV3 format when possible. When targeting MV2, WXT will automatically convert these properties to their MV2 format.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, for this config:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
action: {
|
||||
default_title: 'Some Title',
|
||||
},
|
||||
web_accessible_resources: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
matches: ['*://*.google.com/*'],
|
||||
resources: ['icon/*.png'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
WXT will generate the following manifests:
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
```json [MV2]
|
||||
{
|
||||
"manifest_version": 2,
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
"browser_action": {
|
||||
"default_title": "Some Title"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"web_accessible_resources": ["icon/*.png"]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```json [MV3]
|
||||
{
|
||||
"manifest_version": 3,
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
"action": {
|
||||
"default_title": "Some Title"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"web_accessible_resources": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"matches": ["*://*.google.com/*"],
|
||||
"resources": ["icon/*.png"]
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
You can also specify properties specific to a single manifest version, and they will be stripped out when targeting the other manifest version.
|
||||
|
||||
## Name
|
||||
|
||||
> [Chrome Docs](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/manifest/name/)
|
||||
|
||||
If not provided via the `manifest` config, the manifest's `name` property defaults to your `package.json`'s `name` property.
|
||||
|
||||
## Version and Version Name
|
||||
|
||||
> [Chrome Docs](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/manifest/version/)
|
||||
|
||||
Your extension's `version` and `version_name` is based on the `version` from your `package.json`.
|
||||
|
||||
- `version_name` is the exact string listed
|
||||
- `version` is the string cleaned up, with any invalid suffixes removed
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
// package.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"version": "1.3.0-alpha2"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
// .output/<target>/manifest.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"version": "1.3.0",
|
||||
"version_name": "1.3.0-alpha2"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If a version is not present in your `package.json`, it defaults to `"0.0.0"`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Icons
|
||||
|
||||
WXT automatically discovers your extension's icon by looking at files in the `public/` directory:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
public/
|
||||
├─ icon-16.png
|
||||
├─ icon-24.png
|
||||
├─ icon-48.png
|
||||
├─ icon-96.png
|
||||
└─ icon-128.png
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Specifically, if an icon must match one of these regex to be discovered:
|
||||
|
||||
<<< @/../packages/wxt/src/core/utils/manifest.ts#snippet
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't like these filename or you're migrating to WXT and don't want to rename the files, you can manually specify an `icon` in your manifest:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
icons: {
|
||||
16: '/extension-icon-16.png',
|
||||
24: '/extension-icon-24.png',
|
||||
48: '/extension-icon-48.png',
|
||||
96: '/extension-icon-96.png',
|
||||
128: '/extension-icon-128.png',
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can use [`@wxt-dev/auto-icons`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@wxt-dev/auto-icons) to let WXT generate your icon at the required sizes.

||||
|
||||
## Permissions
|
||||
|
||||
> [Chrome docs](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/permissions/)
|
||||
|
||||
Most of the time, you need to manually add permissions to your manifest. Only in a few specific situations are permissions added automatically:
|
||||
|
||||
- During development: the `tabs` and `scripting` permissions will be added to enable hot reloading.
|
||||
- When a `sidepanel` entrypoint is present: The `sidepanel` permission is added.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
permissions: ['storage', 'tabs'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Host Permissions
|
||||
|
||||
> [Chrome docs](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/develop/concepts/declare-permissions#host-permissions)
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
permissions: ['storage', 'tabs'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
If you use host permissions and target both MV2 and MV3, make sure to only include the required host permissions for each version:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: ({ manifestVersion }) => ({
|
||||
host_permissions: manifestVersion === 2 ? [...] : [...],
|
||||
}),
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Default Locale
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
name: '__MSG_extName__',
|
||||
description: '__MSG_extDescription__',
|
||||
default_locale: 'en',
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> See [I18n docs](/guide/essentials/i18n) for a full guide on internationalizing your extension.
|
||||
|
||||
## Actions
|
||||
|
||||
In MV2, you have two options: [`browser_action`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/browser_action) and [`page_action`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/page_action). In MV3, they were merged into a single [`action`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/action) API.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, whenever an `action` is generated, WXT falls back to `browser_action` when targeting MV2.
|
||||
|
||||
### Action With Popup
|
||||
|
||||
To generate a manifest where a UI appears after clicking the icon, just create a [Popup entrypoint](/guide/essentials/entrypoints#popup).
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
hooks: {
|
||||
build: {
|
||||
manifestGenerated(manifest) {
|
||||
// Update the manifest variable by reference
|
||||
manifest.name = 'Overriden name';
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to use a `page_action` for MV2, add the following meta tag to the HTML document's head:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<meta name="manifest.type" content="page_action" />
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Action Without Popup
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to use the `activeTab` permission or the `browser.action.onClicked` event, but don't want to show a popup:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Delete the [Popup entrypoint](/guide/essentials/entrypoints#popup) if it exists
|
||||
2. Add the `action` key to your manifest:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
action: {},
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Same as an action with a popup, WXT will fallback on using `browser_action` for MV2. To use a `page_action` instead, add that key as well:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
action: {},
|
||||
page_action: {},
|
||||
},
|
||||
});

||||

# Runtime Config
|
||||
|
||||
> This API is still a WIP, with more features coming soon!
|
||||
|
||||
Define runtime configuration in a single place, `<srcDir>/app.config.ts`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineAppConfig } from 'wxt/sandbox';
|
||||
|
||||
// Define types for your config
|
||||
declare module 'wxt/sandbox' {
|
||||
export interface WxtAppConfig {
|
||||
theme?: 'light' | 'dark';
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineAppConfig({
|
||||
theme: 'dark',
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
This file is committed to the repo, so don't put any secrets here. Instead, use [Environment Variables](#environment-variables)
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
To access runtime config, WXT provides the `useAppConfig` function:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { useAppConfig } from 'wxt/sandbox';
|
||||
|
||||
console.log(useAppConfig()); // { theme: "dark" }
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Environment Variables in App Config
|
||||
|
||||
You can use environment variables in the `app.config.ts` file.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
declare module 'wxt/sandbox' {
|
||||
export interface WxtAppConfig {
|
||||
apiKey?: string;
|
||||
skipWelcome: boolean;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineAppConfig({
|
||||
apiKey: import.meta.env.WXT_API_KEY,
|
||||
skipWelcome: import.meta.env.WXT_SKIP_WELCOME === 'true',
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This has several advantages:
|
||||
|
||||
- Define all expected environment variables in a single file
|
||||
- Convert strings to other types, like booleans or arrays
|
||||
- Provide default values if an environment variable is not provided

# TypeScript Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
When you run [`wxt prepare`](/api/cli/wxt-prepare), WXT generates a base TSConfig file for your project at `<rootDir>/.wxt/tsconfig.json`.
|
||||
|
||||
At a minimum, you need to create a TSConfig in your root directory that looks like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
// <rootDir>/tsconfig.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"extends": ".wxt/tsconfig.json",
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or if you're in a monorepo, you may not want to extend the config. If you don't extend it, you need to add `.wxt/wxt.d.ts` to the TypeScript project:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
/// <reference types="./.wxt/wxt.d.ts" />
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Compiler Options
|
||||
|
||||
To specify custom compiler options, add them in `<rootDir>/tsconfig.json`:
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
// <rootDir>/tsconfig.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"extends": ".wxt/tsconfig.json",
|
||||
"compilerOptions": {
|
||||
"jsx": "preserve",
|
||||
},
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## TSConfig Paths
|
||||
|
||||
WXT provides a default set of path aliases.
|
||||
|
||||
| Alias | To | Example |
|
||||
| ----- | ------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `~~` | `<rootDir>/*` | `import "~~/scripts"` |
|
||||
| `@@` | `<rootDir>/*` | `import "@@/scripts"` |
|
||||
| `~` | `<srcDir>/*` | `import { toLowerCase } from "~/utils/strings"` |
|
||||
| `@` | `<srcDir>/*` | `import { toLowerCase } from "@/utils/strings"` |
|
||||
|
||||
To add your own, DO NOT add them to your `tsconfig.json`! Instead, use the [`alias` option](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/InlineConfig#alias) in `wxt.config.ts`.
|
||||
|
||||
This will add your custom aliases to `<rootDir>/.wxt/tsconfig.json` next time you run `wxt prepare`. It also adds your alias to the bundler so it can resolve imports.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { resolve } from 'node:path';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
alias: {
|
||||
// Directory:
|
||||
testing: resolve('utils/testing'),
|
||||
// File:
|
||||
strings: resolve('utils/strings.ts'),
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```

||||
|
||||

# Vite
|
||||
|
||||
WXT uses [Vite](https://vitejs.dev/) under the hood to bundle your extension.
|
||||
|
||||
This page explains how to customize your project's Vite config. Refer to [Vite's documentation](https://vite.dev/config/) to learn more about configuring the bundler.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
In most cases, you shouldn't change Vite's build settings. WXT provides sensible defaults that output a valid extension accepted by all stores when publishing.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Change Vite Config
|
||||
|
||||
You can change Vite's config via the `wxt.config.ts` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
vite: () => ({
|
||||
// Override config here, same as `defineConfig({ ... })`
|
||||
// inside vite.config.ts files
|
||||
}),
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Add Vite Plugins
|
||||
|
||||
To add a plugin, install the NPM package and add it to the Vite config:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
import VueRouter from 'unplugin-vue-router/vite';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
vite: () => ({
|
||||
plugins: [
|
||||
VueRouter({
|
||||
/* ... */
|
||||
}),
|
||||
],
|
||||
}),
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
Due to the way WXT orchestrates Vite builds, some plugins may not work as expected. For example, `vite-plugin-remove-console` normally only runs when you build for production (`vite build`). However, WXT uses a combination of dev server and builds during development, so you need to manually tell it when to run:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
import removeConsole from 'vite-plugin-remove-console';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
vite: (configEnv) => ({
|
||||
plugins:
|
||||
configEnv.mode === 'production'
|
||||
? [removeConsole({ includes: ['log'] })]
|
||||
: [],
|
||||
}),
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Search [GitHub issues](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%3A%22vite+plugin%22) if you run into issues with a specific plugin.
|
||||
|
||||
If an issue doesn't exist for your plugin, [open a new one](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/issues/new/choose).

# Content Script UI
|
||||
---
|
||||
outline: deep
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
There are three ways to mount a UI inside a content script:
|
||||
# Content Scripts
|
||||
|
||||
[[toc]]
|
||||
## Context
|
||||
|
||||
The first argument to a content script's `main` function is it's "context".
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/content.ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
main(ctx) {},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This object is responsible for tracking whether or not the content script's context is "invalidated". Most browsers, by default, do not stop content scripts if the extension is uninstalled, updated, or disabled. When this happens, content scripts start reporting this error:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Error: Extension context invalidated.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `ctx` object provides several helpers to stop asynchronous code from running once the context is invalidated:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
ctx.addEventListener(...);
|
||||
ctx.setTimeout(...);
|
||||
ctx.setInterval(...);
|
||||
ctx.requestAnimationFrame(...);
|
||||
// and more
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can also check if the context is invalidated manually:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
if (ctx.isValid) {
|
||||
// do something
|
||||
}
|
||||
// OR
|
||||
if (ctx.isInvalid) {
|
||||
// do something
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## CSS
|
||||
|
||||
In regular web extensions, CSS for content scripts is usually a separate CSS file, that is added to a CSS array in the manifest:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"content_scripts": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"css": ["content/style.css"],
|
||||
"js": ["content/index.js"],
|
||||
"matches": ["*://*/*"]
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In WXT, to add CSS to a content script, simply import the CSS file into your JS entrypoint, and WXT will automatically add the bundled CSS output to the `css` array.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/content/index.ts
|
||||
import './style.css';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To create a standalone content script that only includes a CSS file:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create the CSS file: `entrypoints/example.content.css`
|
||||
2. Use the `build:manifestGenerated` hook to add the content script to the manifest:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
hooks: {
|
||||
"build:manifestGenerated": (wxt, manifest) => {
|
||||
manifest.content_scripts ??= [];
|
||||
manifest.content_scripts.push({
|
||||
// Build extension once to see where your CSS get's written to
|
||||
css: ["content-scripts/example.css"],
|
||||
matches: ["*://*/*"]
|
||||
)
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## UI
|
||||
|
||||
WXT provides 3 built-in utilities for adding UIs to a page from a content script:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Integrated](#integrated) - `createIntegratedUi`
|
||||
- [Shadow Root](#shadow-root) -`createShadowRootUi`

You can control how CSS is injected for an integrated content script UI with the [`cssInjectionMode`](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/BaseContentScriptEntrypointOptions#cssinjectionmode) property. Usually, you'll want to leave it as `"manifest"`, the default, so the UI inherits its style from the website's CSS.

||||
## Shadow Root
|
||||
### Shadow Root
|
||||
|
||||
Often in web extensions, you don't want your content script's CSS affecting the page, or vise-versa. The [`ShadowRoot`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ShadowRoot) API is ideal for this.
|
||||
|
||||
WXT's [`createShadowRootUi`](/api/reference/wxt/client/functions/createShadowRootUi) abstracts all the `ShadowRoot` setup away, making it easy to create UIs with isolated CSS. It also supports an optional `isolateEvents` parameter to further isolate user interactions.

### IFrame
|

If you don't need to run your UI in the same frame as the content script, you can use an IFrame to host your UI instead. Since an IFrame just hosts an HTML page, **_HMR is supported_**.

WXT provides a helper function, [`createIframeUi`](/api/reference/wxt/client/functions/createIframeUi), which simplifies setting up the IFrame.

## Isolated World vs Main World
|
||||
|
||||
By default, all content scripts run in an isolated context where only the DOM is shared with the webpage it is running on - an "isolated world". In MV3, Chromium introduced the ability to run content scripts in the "main" world - where everything, not just the DOM, is available to the content script, just like if the script were loaded by the webpage.
|
||||
|
||||
You can enable this for a content script by setting the `world` option:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
world: 'MAIN',
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
However, this approach has several notable drawbacks:
|
||||
|
||||
- Doesn't support MV2
|
||||
- `world: "MAIN"` is only supported by Chromium browsers
|
||||
- Main world content scripts don't have access to the extension API
|
||||
|
||||
Instead, WXT recommends injecting a script into the main world manually using it's `injectScript` function. This will address the drawbacks mentioned before.
|
||||
|
||||
- `injectScript` supports both MV2 and MV3
|
||||
- `injectScript` supports all browsers
|
||||
- Having a "parent" content script means you can send messages back and forth, making it possible to access the extension API
|
||||
|
||||
To use `injectScript`, we need two entrypoints, one content script and one unlisted script:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html
|
||||
📂 entrypoints/
|
||||
📄 example.content.ts
|
||||
📄 example-main-world.ts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/example-main-world.ts
|
||||
export default defineUnlistedScript(() => {
|
||||
console.log('Hello from the main world');
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/example.content.ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: ['*://*/*'],
|
||||
async main() {
|
||||
console.log('Injecting script...');
|
||||
await injectScript('/example-main-world.js', {
|
||||
keepInDom: true,
|
||||
});
|
||||
console.log('Done!');
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
`injectScript` works by creating a `script` element on the page pointing to your script. This loads the script into the page's context so it runs in the main world.
|
||||
|
||||
`injectScript` returns a promise, that when resolved, means the script has been evaluated by the browser and you can start communicating with it.
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning Warning: `run_at` Caveat
|
||||
For MV3, `injectScript` is synchronous and the injected script will be evaluated at the same time as your the content script's `run_at`.
|
||||
|
||||
However for MV2, `injectScript` has to `fetch` the script's text content and create an inline `<script>` block. This means for MV2, your script is injected asynchronously and it will not be evaluated at the same time as your content script's `run_at`.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Mounting UI to dynamic element
|
||||
|
||||
In many cases, you may need to mount a UI to a DOM element that does not exist at the time the web page is initially loaded. To handle this, use the `autoMount` API to automatically mount the UI when the target element appears dynamically and unmount it when the element disappears. In WXT, the `anchor` option is used to target the element, enabling automatic mounting and unmounting based on its appearance and removal.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: ['<all_urls>'],
|
||||
|
||||
main(ctx) {
|
||||
const ui = createIntegratedUi(ctx, {
|
||||
position: 'inline',
|
||||
// It observes the anchor
|
||||
anchor: '#your-target-dynamic-element',
|
||||
onMount: (container) => {
|
||||
// Append children to the container
|
||||
const app = document.createElement('p');
|
||||
app.textContent = '...';
|
||||
container.append(app);
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Call autoMount to observe anchor element for add/remove.
|
||||
ui.autoMount();
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
When the `ui.remove` is called, `autoMount` also stops.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
See the [API Reference](/api/reference/wxt/client/interfaces/ContentScriptUi.html#automount) for the complete list of options.
|
||||
|
||||
## Dealing with SPAs
|
||||
|
||||
It is difficult to write content scripts for SPAs (single page applications) and websites using HTML5 history mode for navigation because content scripts are only ran on full page reloads. SPAs and websites that take advantage of HTML5 history mode **_do not perform a full reload when changing paths_**, and thus your content script isn't going to be ran when you expect it to be.
|
||||
|
||||
Let's look at an example. Say you want to add a UI to YouTube when watching a video:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: ['*://*.youtube.com/watch*'],
|
||||
main(ctx) {
|
||||
console.log('YouTube content script loaded');
|
||||
|
||||
mountUi(ctx);
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
function mountUi(ctx: ContentScriptContext): void {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You're only going to see "YouTube content script loaded" when reloading the watch page or when navigating directly to it from another website.
|
||||
|
||||
To get around this, you'll need to manually listen for the path to change and run your content script when the URL matches what you expect it to match.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
const watchPattern = new MatchPattern('*://*.youtube.com/watch*');
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: ['*://*.youtube.com/*'],
|
||||
main(ctx) {
|
||||
ctx.addEventListener(window, 'wxt:locationchange', ({ newUrl }) => {
|
||||
if (watchPattern.includes(newUrl)) mainWatch(ctx);
|
||||
});
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
function mainWatch(ctx: ContentScriptContext) {
|
||||
mountUi(ctx);

}

# Entrypoints
|
||||
|
||||
WXT uses the files inside the `entrypoints/` directory as inputs when bundling your extension. They can be HTML, JS, CSS, or any variant of those file types supported by Vite (Pug, TS, JSX, SCSS, etc).
|
||||
|
||||
Here's an example set of entrypoints:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html
|
||||
📂 entrypoints/
|
||||
📂 popup/
|
||||
📄 index.html
|
||||
📄 main.ts
|
||||
📄 style.css
|
||||
📄 background.ts
|
||||
📄 content.ts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
[[toc]]
|
||||
|
||||
## Listed vs Unlisted
|
||||
|
||||
For web extensions, there are two types of entrypoints:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Listed**: Referenced in the `manifest.json`
|
||||
- **Unlisted**: Not referenced in the `manifest.json`
|
||||
|
||||
Throughout the rest of WXT's documentation, listed files are referred to by name. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
- Popup
|
||||
- Options
|
||||
- Background
|
||||
- Content Scripts
|
||||
- Etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Some examples of "unlisted" entrypoints:
|
||||
|
||||
- A welcome page shown when the extension is installed
|
||||
- JS files injected by content scripts into the page's main world
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
Regardless of whether a entrypoint is listed or unlisted, it will still be bundled into your extension and be available at runtime.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Adding Entrypoints
|
||||
|
||||
An entrypoint can be defined as a single file or directory with an `index` file inside it.
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html [Single File]
|
||||
📂 entrypoints/
|
||||
📄 background.ts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html [Directory]
|
||||
📂 entrypoints/
|
||||
📂 background/
|
||||
📄 index.ts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
The entrypoint's name dictates the type of entrypoint, listed vs unlisted. In this example, "background" is the name of the ["Background" entrypoint](#background).
|
||||
|
||||
Refer to the [Entrypoint Types](#entrypoint-types) section for the full list of listed entrypoints and their filename patterns.
|
||||
|
||||
## Defining Manifest Options
|
||||
|
||||
Most listed entrypoints have options that need to be added to the `manifest.json`. With WXT however, instead of defining the options in a separate file, _you define these options inside the entrypoint file itself_.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, here's how to define `matches` for content scripts:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/content.ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: ['*://*.wxt.dev/*'],
|
||||
main() {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
> Refer to the [Entrypoint Types](#entrypoint-types) sections for a list of options configurable inside each entrypoint, and how to define them.
|
||||
|
||||
When building your extension, WXT will look at the options defined in your entrypoints, and generate the manifest accordingly.
|
||||
|
||||

# ES Modules
|
||||
|
||||
Currently, ESM entrypoints are opt-in, so you must configure each entrypoint with that in mind.
|
||||
|
||||
## HTML Pages <Badge type="warning" text="≥0.0.1" />
|
||||
|
||||
In general, you should always make HTML pages import ESM scripts, unless you need to support old browsers.
|
||||
|
||||
To make a script ESM, add `type="module"`:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<script src="./main.ts"></script> <!-- [!code --] -->
|
||||
<script src="./main.ts" type="module"></script> <!-- [!code ++] -->
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Background <Badge type="warning" text="≥0.16.0" />
|
||||
|
||||
In your background script, set `type: "module"`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineBackground({
|
||||
type: 'module', // [!code ++]
|
||||
main() {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
Only MV3 supports ESM background scripts/service workers. When targeting MV2, the `type` option is ignored and the background is always bundled into a single file as IIFE.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Content Scripts
|
||||
|
||||
WXT does not yet include built-in support for ESM content scripts. The plan is to add support for chunking to reduce bundle size, but not support HMR for now. There are several technical issues that make implementing a generic solution for HMR impossible. See [Content Script ESM Support #357](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/issues/357) for details.
|
||||
|
||||
If you can't wait, and need ESM support right now, you can implement ESM support manually. See the [ESM Content Script UI](https://github.com/wxt-dev/examples/tree/main/examples/esm-content-script-ui) example to get started.

# Extension APIs
|
||||
|
||||
[Chrome Docs](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/api) • [Firefox Docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Browser_support_for_JavaScript_APIs)
|
||||
|
||||
Different browsers provide different global variables for accessing the extension APIs (chrome provides `chrome`, firefox provides `browser`, etc).
|
||||
|
||||
WXT simplifies this - always use `browser`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
browser.action.onClicked.addListener(() => {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Other than that, refer to Chrome and Mozilla's documentation for how to use specific APIs. Everything a normal extension can do, WXT can do as well, just via `browser` instead of `chrome`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Webextension Polyfill
|
||||
|
||||
> Since `v0.1.0`
|
||||
|
||||
By default, WXT uses the [`webextension-polyfill` by Mozilla](https://www.npmjs.com/package/webextension-polyfill) to make the extension API consistent between browsers.
|
||||
|
||||
To access types, you should import the relevant namespace from `wxt/browser`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { Runtime } from 'wxt/browser';
|
||||
|
||||
function handleMessage(message: any, sender: Runtime.Sender) {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Disabling the polyfill
|
||||
|
||||
> Since `v0.19.0`
|
||||
|
||||
After the release of MV3 and Chrome's official deprecation of MV2 in June 2024, the polyfill isn't really doing anything useful anymore.
|
||||
|
||||
You can disable it with a single line:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
extensionApi: 'chrome',
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will change `wxt/browser` to simply export the `browser` or `chrome` globals based on browser at runtime:
|
||||
|
||||
<<< @/../packages/wxt/src/browser/chrome.ts#snippet
|
||||
|
||||
Accessing types is a little different with the polyfill disabled. They do not need to be imported; they're available on the `browser` object itself:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
function handleMessage(message: any, sender: browser.runtime.Sender) {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Feature Detection
|
||||
|
||||
Depending on the manifest version and browser, some APIs are not available at runtime. If an API is not available, it will be `undefined`.
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
Types will not help you here. The types WXT provides for `browser` assume all APIs exist. You are responsible for knowing whether an API is available or not.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
To check if an API is available, use feature detection:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
if (browser.runtime.onSuspend != null) {
|
||||
browser.runtime.onSuspend.addListener(() => {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Here, [optional chaining](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Operators/Optional_chaining) is your best friend:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
browser.runtime.onSuspend?.addListener(() => {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, if you're trying to use similar APIs under different names (to support MV2 and MV3), you can do something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
(browser.action ?? browser.browser_action).onClicked.addListener(() => {
|
||||
//
|
||||
});
|
||||
```

## Multiple Apps

Since web extensions usually contain multiple UIs as separate HTML files (popup, options, changelog, side panel, etc), you'll need to create individual app instances, one per HTML page.

## Configuring Routers
|
||||
|
||||
Lots of frameworks come with routers for building a multi-page app using the URL's path. Chrome extensions don't don't work like this. Since HTML files are static, `chrome-extension://{id}/popup.html`, there's no way to change the entire path for routing.
|
||||
All frameworks come with routers for building a multi-page app using the URL's path... But web extensions don't work like this. Since HTML files are static, `chrome-extension://{id}/popup.html`, there's no way to change the entire path for routing.
|
||||
|
||||
Instead, you need to configure the router to run in "hash" mode, where the routing information is apart of the URL's hash, not the path (ie: `popup.html#/` and `popup.html#/account/settings`).

This page discusses how to setup internationalization using the vanilla `browser.i18n` APIs and mentions some alternatives if you want to use something else.
|
||||
|
||||
[[toc]]
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
1. Add `default_locale` to your manifest:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
default_locale: 'en',
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
2. Create `messages.json` files in the `public/` directory:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html
|
||||
📂 {srcDir}/
|
||||
📂 public/
|
||||
📂 _locales/
|
||||
📂 en/
|
||||
📄 messages.json
|
||||
📂 de/
|
||||
📄 messages.json
|
||||
📂 ko/
|
||||
📄 messages.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```jsonc
|
||||
// public/_locales/en/messages.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"helloWorld": {
|
||||
"message": "Hello world!",
|
||||
},
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
3. Get the translation:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
browser.i18n.getMessage('helloWorld');
|
||||
```
|
||||
4. _Optional_: Add translations for extension name and description:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"extName": {
|
||||
"message": "..."
|
||||
},
|
||||
"extDescription": {
|
||||
"message": "..."
|
||||
},
|
||||
"helloWorld": {
|
||||
"message": "Hello world!"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
name: '__MSG_extName__',
|
||||
description: '__MSG_extDescription__',
|
||||
default_locale: 'en',
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Alternatives
|
||||
|
||||
The vanilla API has very few features, which is why you may want to consider using third-party NPM packages like `i18next`, `react-i18n`, `vue-i18n`, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
However, it is recommended you stick with the vanilla API (or a package based on top of the vanilla API, like [`@wxt-dev/i18n`](/i18n)), because:
|
||||
|
||||
- They can localize text in your manifest and CSS files
|
||||
- Translations are loaded synchronously
|
||||
- Translations are not bundled multiple times, keeping your extension small
|
||||
- Zero configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Here are some examples of how to setup a third party i18n library:

The vanilla APIs are difficult to use and are a pain point to many new extension developers. For this reason, WXT recommends installing an NPM package that wraps around the vanilla APIs.

|
||||
Here are some popular messaging libraries that support all browsers and work with WXT:
|
||||
|
||||
- [`trpc-chrome`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/trpc-chrome) - [tRPC](https://trpc.io/) adapter for Web Extensions.

# Project Structure
|
||||
|
||||
WXT follows a strict project structure. By default, it's a flat folder structure that looks like this:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html
|
||||
📂 {rootDir}/
|
||||
📁 .output/
|
||||
📁 .wxt/
|
||||
📁 assets/
|
||||
📁 components/
|
||||
📁 composables/
|
||||
📁 entrypoints/
|
||||
📁 hooks/
|
||||
📁 modules/
|
||||
📁 public/
|
||||
📁 utils/
|
||||
📄 .env
|
||||
📄 .env.publish
|
||||
📄 app.config.ts
|
||||
📄 package.json
|
||||
📄 tsconfig.json
|
||||
📄 web-ext.config.ts
|
||||
📄 wxt.config.ts
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Here's a brief summary of each of these files and directories:
|
||||
|
||||
- `.output/`: All build artifacts will go here
|
||||
- `.wxt/`: Generated by WXT, it contains TS config
|
||||
- `assets/`: Contains all CSS, images, and other assets that should be processed by WXT
|
||||
- `components/`: Auto-imported by default, contains UI components
|
||||
- `composables/`: Auto-imported by default, contains composable functions for Vue
|
||||
- `entrypoints/`: Contains all the entrypoints that get bundled into your extension
|
||||
- `hooks/`: Auto-imported by default, contains hooks for React and Solid
|
||||
- `public/`: Contains any files you want to copy into the output folder as-is, without being processed by WXT
|
||||
- `utils/`: Auto-imported by default, contains generic utilities used throughout your project
|
||||
- `.env`: Contains [Environment Variables](/guide/essentials/config/environment-variables)
|
||||
- `.env.publish`: Contains Environment Variables for [publishing](/guide/essentials/publishing)
|
||||
- `app.config.ts`: Contains [Runtime Config](/guide/essentials/config/runtime)
|
||||
- `package.json`: The standard file used by your package manager
|
||||
- `tsconfig.json`: Config telling TypeScript how to behave
|
||||
- `web-ext.config.ts`: Configure [Browser Startup](/guide/essentials/config/browser-startup)
|
||||
- `wxt.config.ts`: The main config file for WXT projects
|
||||
|
||||
## Adding a `src/` Directory
|
||||
|
||||
Many developers like having a `src/` directory to separate source code from configuration files. You can enable it inside the `wxt.config.ts` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
srcDir: 'src',
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
After enabling it, your project structure should look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html
|
||||
📂 {rootDir}/
|
||||

||||
|
||||
## Customizing Other Directories
|
||||
|
||||
You can configure the following directories:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->

||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts

# Targeting Different Browsers
|
||||
|
||||
When building an extension with WXT, you can create multiple builds of your extension targeting different browsers and manifest versions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Target a Browser
|
||||
|
||||
Use the `-b` CLI flag to create a separate build of your extension for a specific browser. By default, `chrome` is targeted.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
wxt # same as: wxt -b chrome
|
||||
wxt -b firefox
|
||||
wxt -b custom
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
During development, if you target Firefox, Firefox will open. All other strings open Chrome by default. To customize which browsers open, see [Set Browser Binaries](/guide/essentials/config/browser-startup#set-browser-binaries).
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, WXT defines several constants you can use at runtime to detect which browser is in use:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
if (import.meta.env.BROWSER === 'firefox') {
|
||||
console.log('Do something only in Firefox builds');
|
||||
}
|
||||
if (import.meta.env.FIREFOX) {
|
||||
// Shorthand, equivalent to the if-statement above
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Read about [Built-in Environment Variables](/guide/essentials/config/environment-variables.html#built-in-environment-variables) for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
## Target a Manifest Version
|
||||
|
||||
To target specific manifest versions, use the `--mv2` or `--mv3` CLI flags.
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip Default Manifest Version
|
||||
By default, WXT will target MV2 for Safari and Firefox and MV3 for all other browsers.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to the browser, you can get the target manifest version at runtime using the [built-in environment variable](/guide/essentials/config/environment-variables.html#built-in-environment-variables):
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
if (import.meta.env.MANIFEST_VERSION === 2) {
|
||||
console.log('Do something only in MV2 builds');
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Filtering Entrypoints
|
||||
|
||||
Every entrypoint can be included or excluded when targeting specific browsers via the `include` and `exclude` options.
|
||||
|
||||
Here are some examples:
|
||||
|
||||
- Content script only built when targeting `firefox`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
include: ['firefox'],
|
||||
|
||||
main(ctx) {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- HTML file only built for all targets other than `chrome`:
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<!doctype html>
|
||||
<html lang="en">
|
||||
<head>
|
||||
<meta charset="UTF-8" />
|
||||
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />

# Testing Updates
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Permission Changes
|
||||
|
||||
When `permissions`/`host_permissions` change during an update, depending on what exactly changed, the browser will disable your extension until the user accepts the new permissions.
|
||||
|
||||
You can test if your permission changes will result in a disabled extension:
|
||||
|
||||
- Chromium: Use [Google's Extension Update Testing tool](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/extension-update-testing-tool)
|
||||
- Firefox: See their [Test Permission Requests](https://extensionworkshop.com/documentation/develop/test-permission-requests/) page
|
||||
- Safari: Everyone breaks something in production eventually... 🫡 Good luck soldier
|
||||
|
||||
## Update Event
|
||||
|
||||
You can setup a callback that runs after your extension updates like so:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
browser.runtime.onInstalled.addListener(({ reason }) => {
|
||||
if (reason === 'update') {
|
||||
// Do something
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If the logic is simple, write a unit test to cover this logic. If you feel the need to manually test this callback, you can either:
|
||||
|
||||
1. In dev mode, remove the `if` statement and reload the extension from `chrome://extensions`
|
||||
2. Use [Google's Extension Update Testing tool](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/extension-update-testing-tool)

# Unit Testing
|
||||
|
||||
[[toc]]
|
||||
|
||||
## Vitest
|
||||
|
||||
WXT provides first class support for Vitest for unit testing:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// vitest.config.ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'vitest/config';
|
||||
import { WxtVitest } from 'wxt/testing';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
plugins: [WxtVitest()],
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This plugin does several things:
|
||||
|
||||
- Polyfills the extension API, `browser`, with an in-memory implementation using [`@webext-core/fake-browser`](https://webext-core.aklinker1.io/fake-browser/installation)
|
||||
- Adds all vite config or plugins in `wxt.config.ts`
|
||||
- Configures auto-imports (if enabled)
|
||||
- Applies internal WXT vite plugins for things like [bundling remote code](/guide/essentials/remote-code)
|
||||
- Sets up global variables provided by WXT (`import.meta.env.BROWSER`, `import.meta.env.MANIFEST_VERSION`, `import.meta.env.IS_CHROME`, etc)
|
||||
- Configures aliases (`@/*`, `@@/*`, etc) so imports can be resolved
|
||||
|
||||
Here are real projects with unit testing setup. Look at the code and tests to see how they're written.
|
||||
|
||||
- [`aklinker1/github-better-line-counts`](https://github.com/aklinker1/github-better-line-counts)
|
||||
- [`wxt-dev/examples`'s Vitest Example](https://github.com/wxt-dev/examples/tree/main/examples/vitest-unit-testing)
|
||||
|
||||
### Example Tests
|
||||
|
||||
This example demonstrates that you don't have to mock `browser.storage` (used by `wxt/storage`) in tests - [`@webext-core/fake-browser`](https://webext-core.aklinker1.io/fake-browser/installation) implements storage in-memory so it behaves like it would in a real extension!
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { describe, it, expect } from 'vitest';
|
||||
import { fakeBrowser } from 'wxt/testing';
|
||||
|
||||
const accountStorage = storage.defineItem<Account>('local:account');
|
||||
|
||||
async function isLoggedIn(): Promise<Account> {
|
||||
const value = await accountStorage.getValue();
|
||||
return value != null;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
describe('isLoggedIn', () => {
|
||||
beforeEach(() => {
|
||||
// See https://webext-core.aklinker1.io/fake-browser/reseting-state
|
||||
fakeBrowser.reset();
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
it('should return true when the account exists in storage', async () => {
|
||||
const account: Account = {
|
||||
username: '...',
|
||||
preferences: {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
};
|
||||
await accountStorage.setValue(account);
|
||||
|
||||
expect(await isLoggedIn()).toBe(true);
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
it('should return false when the account does not exist in storage', async () => {
|
||||
await accountStorage.deleteValue();
|
||||
|
||||
expect(await isLoggedIn()).toBe(false);
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Other Testing Frameworks
|
||||
|
||||
To use a different framework, you will likely have to disable auto-imports, setup import aliases, manually mock the extension APIs, and setup the test environment to support all of WXT's features that you use.
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to do, but will require a bit more setup. Refer to Vitest's setup for an example of how to setup a test environment:

# WXT Modules
|
||||
|
||||
WXT provides a "module system" that let's you run code at different steps in the build process to modify it.
|
||||
|
||||
[[toc]]
|
||||
|
||||
## Adding a Module
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to add a module to your project:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **NPM**: install an NPM package, like [`@wxt-dev/auto-icons`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@wxt-dev/auto-icons) and add it to your config:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
modules: ['@wxt-dev/auto-icons'],
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
> Searching for ["wxt module"](https://www.npmjs.com/search?q=wxt%20module) on NPM is a good way to find published WXT modules.
|
||||
2. **Local**: add a file to your project's `modules/` directory:
|
||||
```
|
||||
<srcDir>/
|
||||
modules/
|
||||
my-module.ts
|
||||
```
|
||||
> To learn more about writing your own modules, read the [Writing Modules](/guide/essentials/wxt-modules) docs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Module Options
|
||||
|
||||
WXT modules may require or allow setting custom options to change their behavior. There are two types of options:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Build-time**: Any config used during the build process, like feature flags
|
||||
2. **Runtime**: Any config accessed at runtime, like callback functions
|
||||
|
||||
Build-time options are placed in your `wxt.config.ts`, while runtime options is placed in the [`app.config.ts` file](/guide/essentials/config/runtime). Refer to each module's documentation about what options are required and where they should be placed.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use TypeScript, modules augment WXT's types so you will get type errors if options are missing or incorrect.
|
||||
|
||||
## Execution Order
|
||||
|
||||
Modules are loaded in the same order as hooks are executed. Refer to the [Hooks documentation](/guide/essentials/config/hooks#execution-order) for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
## Writing Modules
|
||||
|
||||
Here's what a basic WXT module looks like:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule({
|
||||
setup(wxt) {
|
||||
// Your module code here...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Each module's setup function is executed after the `wxt.config.ts` file is loaded. The `wxt` object provides everything you need to write a module:
|
||||
|
||||
- Use `wxt.hook(...)` to hook into the build's lifecycle and make changes
|
||||
- Use `wxt.config` to get the resolved config from the project's `wxt.config.ts` file
|
||||
- Use `wxt.logger` to log messages to the console
|
||||
- and more!
|
||||
|
||||
Refer to the [API reference](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/Wxt) for a complete list of properties and functions available.
|
||||
|
||||
Also to make sure and read about all the [hooks that are available](https://wxt.dev/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/WxtHooks) - they are essential to writing modules.
|
||||
|
||||
### Recipes
|
||||
|
||||
Modules are complex and require a deeper understanding of WXT's code and how it works. The best way to learn is by example.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Update resolved config
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule({
|
||||
setup(wxt) {
|
||||
wxt.hook('config:resolved', () => {
|
||||
wxt.config.outDir = 'dist';
|
||||
});
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Add built-time config
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
import 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export interface MyModuleOptions {
|
||||
// Add your build-time options here...
|
||||
}
|
||||
declare module 'wxt' {
|
||||
export interface InlineConfig {
|
||||
// Add types for the "myModule" key in wxt.config.ts
|
||||
myModule: MyModuleOptions;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule<AnalyticModuleOptions>({
|
||||
configKey: 'myModule',
|
||||
|
||||
// Build time config is available via the second argument of setup
|
||||
setup(wxt, options) {
|
||||
console.log(options);
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Add runtime config
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
import 'wxt/sandbox';
|
||||
|
||||
export interface MyModuleRuntimeOptions {
|
||||
// Add your runtime options here...
|
||||
}
|
||||
declare module 'wxt/sandbox' {
|
||||
export interface WxtAppConfig {
|
||||
myModule: MyModuleOptions;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Runtime options are returned when calling
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
const config = useAppConfig();
|
||||
console.log(config.myModule);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This is very useful when [generating runtime code](#generate-runtime-module).
|
||||
|
||||
#### Generate output file
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule({
|
||||
setup(wxt) {
|
||||
// Relative to the output directory
|
||||
const generatedFilePath = 'some-file.txt';
|
||||
|
||||
wxt.hook('build:publicAssets', (_, assets) => {
|
||||
assets.push({
|
||||
relativeDest: generatedFilePath,
|
||||
contents: 'some generated text',
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
wxt.hook('build:manifestGenerated', (_, manifest) => {
|
||||
manifest.web_accessible_resources ??= [];
|
||||
manifest.web_accessible_resources.push({
|
||||
matches: ['*://*'],
|
||||
resources: [generatedFilePath],
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This file could then be loaded at runtime:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
const res = await fetch(browser.runtime.getURL('/some-text.txt'));
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Add custom entrypoints
|
||||
|
||||
Once the existing files under the `entrypoints/` directory have been discovered, the `entrypoints:found` hook can be used to add custom entrypoints.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
The `entrypoints:found` hook is triggered before validation is carried out on the list of entrypoints. Thus, any custom entrypoints will still be checked for duplicate names and logged during debugging.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule({
|
||||
setup(wxt) {
|
||||
wxt.hook('entrypoints:found', (_, entrypointInfos) => {
|
||||
// Add your new entrypoint
|
||||
entrypointInfos.push({
|
||||
name: 'my-custom-script',
|
||||
inputPath: 'path/to/custom-script.js',
|
||||
type: 'content-script',
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Generate runtime module
|
||||
|
||||
Create a file in `.wxt`, add an alias to import it, and add auto-imports for exported variables.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
import { resolve } from 'node:path';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule({
|
||||
imports: [
|
||||
// Add auto-imports
|
||||
{ from: '#analytics', name: 'analytics' },
|
||||
{ from: '#analytics', name: 'reportEvent' },
|
||||
{ from: '#analytics', name: 'reportPageView' },
|
||||
],
|
||||
|
||||
setup(wxt) {
|
||||
const analyticsModulePath = resolve(
|
||||
wxt.config.wxtDir,
|
||||
'analytics/index.ts',
|
||||
);
|
||||
const analyticsModuleCode = `
|
||||
import { createAnalytics } from 'some-module';
|
||||
|
||||
export const analytics = createAnalytics(useAppConfig().analytics);
|
||||
export const { reportEvent, reportPageView } = analytics;
|
||||
`;
|
||||
|
||||
addAlias(wxt, '#analytics', analyticsModulePath);
|
||||
|
||||
wxt.hook('prepare:types', async (_, entries) => {
|
||||
entries.push({
|
||||
path: analyticsModulePath,
|
||||
text: analyticsModuleCode,
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### Generate declaration file
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
import { resolve } from 'node:path';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule({
|
||||
setup(wxt) {
|
||||
const typesPath = resolve(wxt.config.wxtDir, 'my-module/types.d.ts');
|
||||
const typesCode = `
|
||||
// Declare global types, perform type augmentation
|
||||
`;
|
||||
|
||||
wxt.hook('prepare:types', async (_, entries) => {
|
||||
entries.push({
|
||||
path: 'my-module/types.d.ts',
|
||||
text: `
|
||||
// Declare global types, perform type augmentation, etc
|
||||
`,
|
||||
// IMPORTANT - without this line your declaration file will not be a part of the TS project:
|
||||
tsReference: true,
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||

# Messaging
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Follow [Chrome's message passing guide](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/messaging/) to understand how message passing works in web extensions. In Google's examples, just replace `chrome` with `browser`, and it will work in WXT.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's a basic request/response example:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// popup/main.ts
|
||||
const res = await browser.runtime.sendMessage('ping');
|
||||
|
||||
console.log(res); // "pong"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// background.ts
|
||||
export default defineBackground(() => {
|
||||
browser.runtime.onMessage.addListener((message, sender, sendResponse) => {
|
||||
console.log(message); // "ping"
|
||||
|
||||
// Wait 1 second and respond with "pong"
|
||||
setTimeout(() => sendResponse('pong'), 1000);
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
});
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Third Party Libraries
|
||||
|
||||
There are a number of message passing libraries you can use to improve the message passing experience.
|
||||
|
||||
- [`@webext-core/messaging`](https://webext-core.aklinker1.io/guide/messaging/) - "A light-weight, type-safe wrapper around the `browser.runtime` messaging APIs"
|
||||
- [`@webext-core/proxy-service`](https://webext-core.aklinker1.io/guide/proxy-service/) - "Create RPC-like services that can be called from anywhere but run in the background"
|
||||
- [`webext-bridge`](https://github.com/zikaari/webext-bridge) - "Messaging in Web Extensions made super easy. Out of the box."
|
||||

# Entrypoint Loaders
|
||||
|
||||
Because entrypoint options, like content script `matches`, are listed in the entrypoint's JS file, WXT has to import them during the build process to use those options when generating the manifest.
|
||||
|
||||
There are two options for loading your entrypoints:
|
||||
|
||||
1. `vite-node` - default as of `v0.19.0`
|
||||
2. `jiti` (**DEPRECATED, will be removed in `v0.20.0`**) - Default before `v0.19.0`
|
||||
|
||||
## vite-node
|
||||
|
||||
Since 0.19.0, WXT uses `vite-node`, the same tool that powers Vitest and Nuxt, to import your entrypoint files.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use any runtime packages that depend on `webextension-polyfill`, you need to add them to [Vite's `ssr.noExternal` option](https://vitejs.dev/config/ssr-options#ssr-noexternal):
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
vite: () => ({
|
||||
ssr: {
|
||||
noExternal: ['@webext-core/messaging', '@webext-core/proxy-service'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
}),
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::details Why?
|
||||
This tells Vite it needs process these module's, letting WXT properly disable the polyfill in the NodeJS environment so it doesn't cause any build errors like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
ERROR This script should only be loaded in a browser extension
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
To get a list of installed packages that use on `webextension-polyfill`, run your package manager's `list` command. Here's an example with PNPM:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
$ pnpm why webextension-polyfill
|
||||
|
||||
dependencies:
|
||||

|
||||
Ignoring WXT itself (it's added automatically for you), there are three packages that depend on the polyfill: `@wxt-dev/module-vue`, `@webext-core/messaging`, and `@webext-core/proxy-service`. Since the vue module is a build dependency, with no runtime code, you don't have to add it. That means for this case, you need to add `@webext-core/messaging`, and `@webext-core/proxy-service`, as shown in the original code snippet.
|
||||
|
||||
## jiti
|
||||
|
||||
The original method WXT used to import TS files. However, because it doesn't support vite plugins like `vite-node`, there is one main caveot to it's usage: **_module side-effects_**.
|
||||
|
||||
To enable `jiti`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
entrypointLoader: 'jiti',
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You cannot use imported variables outside the `main` function in JS entrypoints. This includes options, as shown below:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// entrypoints/content.ts
|
||||
import { GOOGLE_MATCHES } from '~/utils/match-patterns';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: GOOGLE_MATCHES,
|
||||
main() {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```

||||

|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This throws an error because WXT needs to import each entrypoint during the build process to extract its definition (containing the `match`, `runAt`, `include`/`exclude`, etc.) to render the `manifest.json` correctly. Before loading an entrypoint, a transformation is applied to remove all imports. This prevents imported modules (local or NPM) with side-effects from running during the build process, potentially throwing an error.
|
||||
|
||||
:::details Why?
|
||||
|
||||
When importing your entrypoint to get its definition, the file is imported in a **_node environment_**, and doesn't have access to the `window`, `chrome`, or `browser` globals a web extension usually has access to. If WXT doesn't remove all the imports from the file, the imported modules could try and access one of these variables, throwing an error.

|

|
||||
Usually, this error occurs when you try to extract options into a shared file or try to run code outside the `main` function. To fix the example from above, use literal values when defining an entrypoint instead of importing them:

# ES Modules
|
||||
|
||||
Configure entrypoints to use ESM at runtime.
|
||||
|
||||
Currently, ESM entrypoints are opt-in, so you must configure each entrypoint with that in mind.
|
||||
|
||||
## HTML Pages <Badge type="warning" text="≥0.0.1" />
|
||||
|
||||
In general, you should always make HTML pages import ESM scripts, unless you need to support old browsers.
|
||||
|
||||
To make a script ESM, add `type="module"`:
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- prettier-ignore -->
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<script src="./main.ts"></script> <!-- [!code --] -->
|
||||
<script src="./main.ts" type="module"></script> <!-- [!code ++] -->
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Background <Badge type="warning" text="≥0.16.0" />
|
||||
|
||||
In your background script, set `type: "module"`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineBackground({
|
||||
type: 'module', // !code ++
|
||||
main() {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
Only MV3 support ESM background scripts/service workers. When targeting MV2, the `type` option is ignored and the background is always bundled into a single file as IIFE.

# Handling Extension Updates
|
||||
|
||||
When releasing an update to your extension, there's a couple of things you need to keep in mind:
|
||||
|
||||
[[toc]]
|
||||
|
||||
## Content Script Cleanup
|
||||
|
||||
Old content scripts are not automatically stopped when an extension updates and reloads. Often, this leads to "Invalidated context" errors in production when a content script from an old version of your extension tries to use an extension API.
|
||||
|
||||
WXT provides a utility for handling this process: `ContentScriptContext`. An instance of this class is provided to you automatically inside the `main` function of each content script.
|
||||
|
||||
When your extension updates or reloads, the context will become invalidated, and will trigger any `ctx.onInvalidated` listeners you add:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
main(ctx) {
|
||||
ctx.onInvalidated(() => {
|
||||
// Do something
|
||||
});
|
||||
},
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The `ctx` also provides other convenient APIs for stopping your content script without manually calling `onInvalidated` to add a listener:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Setting timers:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
ctx.setTimeout(() => { ... }, ...);
|
||||
ctx.setInterval(() => { ... }, ...);
|
||||
ctx.requestAnimationFrame(() => { ... });
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Adding DOM events:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
ctx.addEventListener(window, "mousemove", (event) => { ... });
|
||||
```
|
||||
1. Implements [`AbortController`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AbortController) for canceling standard APIs:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
fetch('...', {
|
||||
signal: ctx.signal,
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Other WXT APIs require a `ctx` object so they can clean themselves up. For example, [`createIntegratedUi`](/guide/key-concepts/content-script-ui#integrated), [`createShadowRootUi`](/guide/key-concepts/content-script-ui#shadow-root), and [`createIframeUi`](/guide/key-concepts/content-script-ui#iframe) automatically unmount and stop a UI when the script is invalidated.
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
When working with content scripts, **you should always use the `ctx` object to stop any async or future work.**
|
||||
|
||||
This prevents old content scripts from interfering with new content scripts, and prevents error messages from being logged to the console in production.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Testing Permission Changes
|
||||
|
||||
When `permissions`/`host_permissions` change during an update, depending on what exactly changed, the browser will disable your extension until the user accepts the new permissions.
|
||||
|
||||
You can test if your permission changes will result in a disabled extension:
|
||||
|
||||
- Chromium: Use [Google's Extension Update Testing tool](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/extension-update-testing-tool)
|
||||
- Firefox/Safari: Everyone breaks something in production eventually... 🫡 Good luck soldier
|
||||
|
||||
## Update Event
|
||||
|
||||
You can setup a callback that runs after your extension updates like so:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
browser.runtime.onInstalled.addListener(({ reason }) => {
|
||||
if (reason === 'update') {
|
||||
// Do something
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If the logic is simple, write a unit test to cover this logic. If you feel the need to manually test this callback, you can either:
|
||||
|
||||
1. In dev mode, remove the `if` statement and reload the extension from `chrome://extensions`
|
||||
2. Use [Google's Extension Update Testing tool](https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/extension-update-testing-tool)

# Reusable Modules
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
WXT provides a "module" API that lets you modify the build process. This API lets you add entrypoints, inject runtime code, add vite plugins, and more!
|
||||
|
||||
What's more, these modules can be shared on NPM and re-used between projects!
|
||||
|
||||
## Adding a Module
|
||||
|
||||
There are two ways to add a module to your project:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Local file**: Any file present in the `modules/` directory will be treated as a module and loaded at build-time by WXT. You can use `modules/*.ts` or `modules/*/index.ts`, similar to entrypoints.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// modules/example.ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule((wxt) => {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **NPM package**: Find WXT modules on NPM and include them in your project:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
// Add the module to your project
|
||||
modules: ['@wxt-dev/auto-icons'],
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Writing Modules
|
||||
|
||||
Modules contain a setup function that is executed at the beginning of the build process.
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [Function Definition]
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule((wxt) => {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [Object Definition]
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule({
|
||||
// Add metadata...
|
||||
setup(wxt) {
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
### Module Options
|
||||
|
||||
You can define custom options for your module by setting the `configKey`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// modules/analytics.ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule<AnalyticsModuleOptions>({
|
||||
configKey: 'analytics',
|
||||
setup(wxt, options) {
|
||||
console.log(options); // { clientId: "..." }
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
|
||||
// Define the option types
|
||||
export interface AnalyticsModuleOptions {
|
||||
clientId: string;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
// Use "module augmentation" to add types for the new key
|
||||
declare module 'wxt' {
|
||||
export interface InlineConfig {
|
||||
analytics: AnalyticsModuleOptions;
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Now, when the user provides options to the `analytics` key in their `wxt.config.ts`, those options are passed into the setup function as the second argument.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
analytics: { clientId: '...' },
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Actually Doing Something
|
||||
|
||||
The first argument of the setup function, `wxt`, provides full access to the current build's context. You can access the resolved configuration via `wxt.config`, or setup hooks to manipulate the build at different steps of the build process with `wxt.hooks`.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's an example that updates the `outDir` based on the build mode. It's a very simple example of how to access config and setup a hook.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule((wxt) => {
|
||||
if (wxt.config.mode === 'development') {
|
||||
// Use the "ready" hook to update wxt.config
|
||||
wxt.hooks.hook('ready', (wxt) => {
|
||||
wxt.config.outDir = wxt.config.outDir.replace('.output', '.output/dev');
|
||||
});
|
||||
}
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::info Async Modules
|
||||
Both the `setup` function and hook callbacks can be async. Don't forget to add `await`!
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
It's important to understand the basics of how hooks work. Make sure to read the [API reference](/api/reference/wxt/interfaces/WxtHooks.html) for the full list of hooks and what they should be used for. They are the key to modifying your extension.
|
||||
|
||||
### Module Utils
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, WXT provides several helper functions that setup hooks behind the scenes to streamline common operations.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you want to include an entrypoint from inside a module, you can use the `addEntrypoint` util:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// modules/changelog.ts
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule, addEntrypoint } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
import { resolve } from 'node:path';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule({
|
||||
name: 'changelog',
|
||||
setup(wxt) {
|
||||
addEntrypoint(wxt, {
|
||||
type: 'unlisted-page',
|
||||
name: 'changelog',
|
||||
// Point to the "modules/changelog.html" file
|
||||
inputPath: resolve(__dirname, 'changelog.html'),
|
||||
outputDir: wxt.config.outputDir,
|
||||
options: {},
|
||||
});
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Refer to the [API reference](/api/reference/wxt/modules/#functions) for the full list of the utilities.
|
||||
|
||||
## Plugins
|
||||
|
||||
Whereas modules are executed at build-time, plugins are executed at runtime. As of now, the only way to add a plugin is with the `addWxtPlugin` helper inside a module.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's a minimal example to execute something at runtime.
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [modules/example/index.ts]
|
||||
import { defineWxtModule, addWxtPlugin } from 'wxt/modules';
|
||||
import { resolve } from 'node:path';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtModule((wxt) => {
|
||||
addWxtPlugin(wxt, resolve(__dirname, 'plugin.ts'));
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [modules/example/plugin.ts]
|
||||
import { defineWxtPlugin } from 'wxt/sandbox';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineWxtPlugin(() => {
|
||||
console.log('Executing plugin!');
|
||||
});
|
||||
```

||||

||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning Async Plugins
|
||||
Unlike modules, **_plugins cannot be async_**!! If you need to do some async work and expose that result to the rest of the extension, store the result's promise synchronously and await it later on.

# Testing
|
||||
|
||||
## Official Frameworks
|
||||
|
||||
WXT officially supports [Vitest](https://vitest.dev/) for unit tests and either [Playwright](https://playwright.dev/) or [Puppeteer](https://pptr.dev/) for E2E tests against Chromium browsers.
|
||||
|
||||
For details setting up each testing framework, see the official examples:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Vitest](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt-examples/tree/main/examples/vanilla-vitest#readme)
|
||||
- [Playwright](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt-examples/tree/main/examples/vanilla-playwright#readme)
|
||||
- [Puppeteer](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt-examples/tree/main/examples/vanilla-puppeteer#readme)
|
||||
|
||||
### Unofficial Frameworks
|
||||
|
||||
Puppeteer and Playwright are the only E2E test runners that support Chrome Extensions. There are no other options at the time of writing.
|
||||
|
||||
There are other options for unit tests however, like [Jest](https://jestjs.io/), [Mocha](https://mochajs.org/), or [`node:test`](https://nodejs.org/api/test.html). **_WXT does not claim to support any of them_** because none of them support all of WXT's features, like TypeScript or auto-imports.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to try to use a different framework for unit tests, you will need to configure the environment manually:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Auto-imports**: Add `unimport` to your test environment or disable them by setting `imports: false` in your `wxt.config.ts` file
|
||||
- **`browser` mock**: Mock the `webextension-polyfill` module globally with `wxt/dist/virtual/mock-browser.mjs`
|
||||
- **[Remote Code Bundling](/guide/go-further/remote-code)**: If you use it, configure your environment to handle the `url:` module prefix
|
||||
- **Global Variables**: If you consume them, manually define globals provided by WXT (like `import.meta.env.BROWSER`) by adding them to the global scope before accessing them (`import.meta.env.BROWSER = "chrome"`)
|
||||
- **Import paths**: If you use the `@/` or `~/` path aliases, add them to your test environment
|
||||
|
||||

# Vite
|
||||
|
||||
Under the hood, WXT uses Vite to bundle your web extension.
|
||||
|
||||
## Basic Vite Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
All of Vite's config can be customized by setting the `vite` configuration in your `wxt.config.ts` file.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
vite: () => ({
|
||||
// Same as `defineConfig({ ... })` inside vite.config.ts
|
||||
}),
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Using Plugins
|
||||
|
||||
Plugins can be passed into the `vite` configuration in your `wxt.config.ts` file, just like any other option.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
vite: () => ({
|
||||
plugins: [
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
],
|
||||
}),
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning UNEXPECTED BEHAVIOR
|
||||
Due to the way WXT orchestrates Vite builds, some plugins may not work as expected. Search [GitHub issues](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt/issues?q=is%3Aissue+label%3A%22vite+plugin%22) if you run into issues with a specific plugin.

### Demo
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Once you've run the `dev` command, continue to [Next Steps](#next-steps)!
|
||||
|
||||
## From Scratch
|
||||
|
||||
1. Create a new project
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
```sh [PNPM]
|
||||
cd my-project
|
||||
pnpm init
|
||||
```
|
||||
```sh [Bun]
|
||||
cd my-project
|
||||
bun init
|
||||
```
|
||||
```sh [NPM]
|
||||
cd my-project
|
||||
npm init
|
||||
```
|
||||
```sh [Yarn]
|
||||
cd my-project
|
||||
yarn init
|
||||
```
|
||||
:::
|
||||
2. Install WXT:
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
```sh [PNPM]
|
||||
pnpm i -D wxt
|
||||
```
|
||||
```sh [Bun]
|
||||
bun i -D wxt
|
||||
```
|
||||
```sh [NPM]
|
||||
npm i -D wxt
|
||||
```
|
||||
```sh [Yarn]
|
||||
yarn add --dev wxt
|
||||
```
|
||||
:::
|
||||
3. Add an entrypoint, `my-project/entrypoints/background.ts`:
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineBackground(() => {
|
||||
console.log('Hello world!');
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
:::
|
||||
4. Add scripts to your `package.json`:
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"scripts": {
|
||||
"dev": "wxt", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"dev:firefox": "wxt -b firefox", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"build": "wxt build", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"build:firefox": "wxt build -b firefox", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"zip": "wxt zip", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"zip:firefox": "wxt zip -b firefox", // [!code ++]
|
||||
"postinstall": "wxt prepare" // [!code ++]
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
5. Run your extension in dev mode
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
```sh [PNPM]
|
||||
pnpm dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
```sh [Bun]
|
||||
bun run dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
```sh [NPM]
|
||||
npm run dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
```sh [Yarn]
|
||||
yarn dev
|
||||
```
|
||||
:::
|
||||
WXT will automatically open a browser window with your extension installed.
|
||||
|
||||

# Welcome to WXT!
|
||||
|
||||
WXT is a modern, open-source framework for building web extensions. Inspired by Nuxt, its goals are to:
|
||||
|
||||
- Provide an awesome [DX](https://about.gitlab.com/topics/devops/what-is-developer-experience/)
|
||||
- Provide first-class support for all major browsers
|
||||
|
||||
Check out the [comparison](/guide/resources/compare) to see how WXT compares to other tools for building web extensions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Prerequisites
|
||||
|
||||
These docs assume you have a basic knowledge of how web extensions are structured and how you access the extension APIs.
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning New to extension development?
|
||||
If you have never written an extension before, follow Chrome's [Hello World tutorial](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/get-started/tutorial/hello-world) to first **_create an extension without WXT_**, then come back here.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
You should also be aware of [Chrome's extension docs](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions) and [Mozilla's extension docs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions). WXT does not change how you use the extension APIs, and you'll need to refer to these docs often when using specific APIs.

# Auto-imports
|
||||
|
||||
WXT uses the same tool as Nuxt for auto-imports, [`unimport`](https://github.com/unjs/unimport).
|
||||
|
||||
## WXT Auto-imports
|
||||
|
||||
Some WXT APIs can be used without importing them:
|
||||
|
||||
- [`browser`](/api/reference/wxt/browser/variables/browser) from `wxt/browser`, a small wrapper around `webextension-polyfill`
|
||||
- [`defineContentScript`](/api/reference/wxt/sandbox/functions/defineContentScript) from `wxt/sandbox`
|
||||
- [`defineBackground`](/api/reference/wxt/sandbox/functions/defineBackground) from `wxt/sandbox`
|
||||
- [`defineUnlistedScript`](/api/reference/wxt/sandbox/functions/defineUnlistedScript) from `wxt/sandbox`
|
||||
- [`createIntegratedUi`](/api/reference/wxt/client/functions/createIntegratedUi) from `wxt/client`
|
||||
- [`createShadowRootUi`](/api/reference/wxt/client/functions/createShadowRootUi) from `wxt/client`
|
||||
- [`createIframeUi`](/api/reference/wxt/client/functions/createIframeUi) from `wxt/client`
|
||||
- [`fakeBrowser`](/api/reference/wxt/testing/variables/fakeBrowser) from `wxt/testing`
|
||||
|
||||
And more!
|
||||
|
||||
## Project Auto-imports
|
||||
|
||||
In addition WXT APIs, default and named exports from inside the following directories can be used without listing them in imports.
|
||||
|
||||
- `<srcDir>/components/*`
|
||||
- `<srcDir>/composables/*`
|
||||
- `<srcDir>/hooks/*`
|
||||
- `<srcDir>/utils/*`
|
||||
|
||||
To add auto-imports from subdirectories, like `utils/api/some-file.ts`, re-export them from the base directory:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// utils/index.ts
|
||||
export * from './api/some-file.ts';
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you could add the directory to the list of auto-import directories in your config file.
|
||||
|
||||
## TypeScript
|
||||
|
||||
For TypeScript to work, you need to run the `wxt prepare` command. This will ensure types are generated for auto-imports.
|
||||
|
||||
This should be added to your `postinstall` script so your editor has everything it needs to report type errors after installing dependencies:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
// package.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"scripts": {
|
||||
"postinstall": "wxt prepare" // [!code ++]
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Customization
|
||||
|
||||
You can override the default auto-import behavior in your `wxt.config.ts` file.
|
||||
|
||||
See [`unimport`'s documentation](https://github.com/unjs/unimport#configurations) for a complete list of options.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
imports: {
|
||||
// Add auto-imports for vue functions like createApp, ref, computed, watch, toRaw, etc...
|
||||
presets: ['vue'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Disabling Auto-imports
|
||||
|
||||
To disable auto-imports, set `imports: false`
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
imports: false,
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## ESLint
|
||||
|
||||
ESLint doesn't know about the auto-imported variables unless they are explicitly defined in the `globals` config. By default, WXT will generate the config if it detects ESLint is installed in your project. If the config isn't generated automatically, you can manually tell WXT to generate it.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
imports: {
|
||||
eslintrc: {
|
||||
enabled: 8, // Generate ESLint v8 compatible config
|
||||
// or
|
||||
enabled: 9, // Generate ESLint v9 compatible config
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ESLint 9 and above
|
||||
|
||||
WXT supports the "flat config" file format introduced in ESLint 9. Just import the generated file and add it to the array of config to extend.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
// eslint.config.mjs
|
||||
import autoImports from './.wxt/eslint-auto-imports.mjs';
|
||||
|
||||
export default [autoImports];
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### ESLint 8 and below
|
||||
|
||||
Just extend the generated file:
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
// .eslintrc.mjs
|
||||
export default {
|
||||
extends: ['./.wxt/eslintrc-auto-import.json'],

};

# Manifest
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
Sometimes, you'll need to make manual changes to how the `manifest.json` is generated. You can do this by using the `manifest` configuration:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
// Put manual changes here
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Manifest Version Compatibility
|
||||
|
||||
When defining options in the manifest, always define them for MV3 when possible. WXT will either convert them to their MV2 equivalents or remove them from the generated manifest if there is not MV2 equivalent.
|
||||
|
||||
So for fields like `web_accessible_resources` or `content_security_policy`, you just need to list them in their MV3 forms. Other fields, like `side_panel`, which doesn't exist in MV2, will be removed automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
Here's an example `wxt.config.ts` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { defineConfig } from 'wxt';
|
||||
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
action: {
|
||||
default_title: 'Some Title',
|
||||
},
|
||||
web_accessible_resources: [
|
||||
{
|
||||
matches: ['*://*.google.com/*'],
|
||||
resources: ['icon/*.png'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
And here's the different `manifest.json` files generated:
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
```json [MV2]
|
||||
{
|
||||
"manifest_version": 2,
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
"browser_action": {
|
||||
"default_title": "Some Title"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"web_accessible_resources": ["icon/*.png"]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```json [MV3]
|
||||
{
|
||||
"manifest_version": 3,
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
"action": {
|
||||
"default_title": "Some Title"
|
||||
},
|
||||
"web_accessible_resources": [
|
||||
{
|
||||
"matches": ["*://*.google.com/*"],
|
||||
"resources": ["icon/*.png"]
|
||||
}
|
||||
]
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Name
|
||||
|
||||
If not provided via the `manifest` config, the [manifest's `name`](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/manifest/name/) defaults to your `package.json`'s `name` property.
|
||||
|
||||
## Version
|
||||
|
||||
The [manifest's `version` and `version_name`](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/manifest/version/) properties are based on the `version` field listed in your `package.json` or `wxt.config.ts`.
|
||||
|
||||
- `version_name` is the exact string listed in your `package.json` or `wxt.config.ts` file
|
||||
- `version` is the string cleaned up, with any invalid suffixes removed
|
||||
|
||||
If a version is not found, a warning is logged and the version defaults to `"0.0.0"`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Example
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
// package.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"version": "1.3.0-alpha2"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
// .output/<dir>/manifest.json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"version": "1.3.0",
|
||||
"version_name": "1.3.0-alpha2"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## `icons`
|
||||
|
||||
By default, WXT will discover icons in your [`public` directory](/guide/directory-structure/public/) and use them for the [manifest's `icons`](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/mv3/manifest/icons/).
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
public/
|
||||
├─ icon-16.png
|
||||
├─ icon-24.png
|
||||
├─ icon-48.png
|
||||
├─ icon-96.png
|
||||
└─ icon-128.png
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Icon files need to match the following regex to be automatically included in the manifest. Most design software can output icons in one of these formats
|
||||
|
||||
<<< @/../packages/wxt/src/core/utils/manifest.ts#snippet
|
||||
|
||||
If you prefer to use filenames in a different format, you can add the icons manually in your `wxt.config.ts` file:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
icons: {
|
||||
16: '/extension-icon-16.png',
|
||||
24: '/extension-icon-24.png',
|
||||
48: '/extension-icon-48.png',
|
||||
96: '/extension-icon-96.png',
|
||||
128: '/extension-icon-128.png',
|
||||
},
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Permissions
|
||||
|
||||
[Permissions](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/permissions/) must be listed in the manifest config.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
permissions: ['storage', 'tabs'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Host Permissions
|
||||
|
||||
[Host Permissions](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/develop/concepts/declare-permissions#host-permissions) must be listed in the manifest config.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
host_permissions: ['*://*.google.com/*'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
If you use host permissions and target both MV2 and MV3, make sure to only include the required host permissions for each version:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: ({ manifestVersion }) => ({
|
||||
host_permissions: manifestVersion === 2 ? [...] : [...],
|
||||
}),
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Localization
|
||||
|
||||
Similar to the icon, the [`_locales` directory](https://developer.chrome.com/docs/extensions/reference/i18n/) should be placed inside the the WXT's [`public` directory](/guide/directory-structure/public/).
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
public/
|
||||
└─ _locales/
|
||||
├─ en/
|
||||
│ └─ messages.json
|
||||
├─ es/
|
||||
│ └─ messages.json
|
||||
└─ ko/
|
||||
└─ messages.json
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Then you'll need to explicitly override the `name` and `description` properties in your config for them to be localized.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
name: '__MSG_extName__',
|
||||
description: '__MSG_extDescription__',
|
||||
default_locale: 'en',
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See the official localization examples for more details:
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
- [Vue I18n](https://github.com/wxt-dev/wxt-examples/tree/main/examples/vue-i18n#readme)
|
||||
|
||||
## Actions
|
||||
|
||||
In MV2, you had two options: [`browser_action`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/browser_action) and [`page_action`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/page_action). In MV3, they were merged into a single [`action`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/manifest.json/action) API.
|
||||
|
||||
By default, whenever an action is generated, WXT falls back to `browser_action` when targetting MV2.
|
||||
|
||||
### Action With Popup
|
||||
|
||||
To generate a manifest where a UI appears after clicking the icon, just create a [popup entrypoint](/guide/directory-structure/entrypoints/popup).
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to use a `page_action` for MV2, add the following `meta` tag to the HTML document's head:
|
||||
|
||||
```html
|
||||
<meta name="manifest.type" content="page_action" />
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Action Without Popup
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to use the `activeTab` permission or the `browser.action.onClick` event, but don't want to show a popup UI:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Delete the [popup entrypoint](/guide/directory-structure/entrypoints/popup) if it exists
|
||||
2. Add the `action` key to your manifest:
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
action: {},
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Same as an action with a popup, WXT will fallback on using `browser_action` for MV2. To use a `page_action` instead, add that key as well:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: {
|
||||
action: {},
|
||||
page_action: {},
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Full Control
|
||||
|
||||
The `manifest` option can also be set equal to a function, letting you use logical statements to determine what should be output.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
manifest: ({ manifestVersion, browser, mode, command }) => {
|
||||
return { ... }
|
||||
}
|
||||
})
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or, you can use the `build:manifestGenerated` hook to transform the manifest before it is written to the output directory.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// wxt.config.ts
|
||||
export default defineConfig({
|
||||
hooks: {
|
||||
build: {
|
||||
manifestGenerated(manifest) {
|

# Multiple Browsers
|
||||
|
||||
You can build an extension for any combination of browser and manifest version. Different browsers and manifest versions support different APIs and entrypoints, so be sure to check that your extension functions as expected for each target.
|
||||
|
||||
Separate build targets are written to their own output directories:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
<rootDir>
|
||||
└─ .output
|
||||
├─ chrome-mv3
|
||||
├─ firefox-mv2
|
||||
├─ edge-mv3
|
||||
└─ ...
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Target Browser
|
||||
|
||||
To build for a specific browser, pass the `-b --browser` flag from the CLI:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
wxt --browser firefox
|
||||
wxt build --browser firefox
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
By default, it will build for `chrome`. When excluding the [manifest version flags](#target-manifest-version), it will default to the commonly accepted manifest version for that browser.
|
||||
|
||||
| Browser | Default Manifest Version |
|
||||
| ---------------- | :----------------------: |
|
||||
| `chrome` | 3 |
|
||||
| `firefox` | 2 |
|
||||
| `safari` | 2 |
|
||||
| `edge` | 3 |
|
||||
| Any other string | 3 |
|
||||
|
||||
:::tip
|
||||
To configure which browser is opened when running dev mode via `wxt -b <browser>`, see the [`web-ext.config.ts` docs](/guide/directory-structure/web-ext-config).
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Target Manifest Version
|
||||
|
||||
To build for a specific manifest version, pass either the `--mv2` flag or `--mv3` flag from the CLI.
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
wxt --mv2
|
||||
wxt build --mv2
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When the `-b --browser` flag is not passed, it defaults to `chrome`. So here, we're targeting MV2 for Chrome.
|
||||
|
||||
## Customizing Entrypoints
|
||||
|
||||
There are several ways to customize entrypoint definitions per browser.
|
||||
|
||||
First, you can use either the `include` or `exclude` option to include or exclude the entrypoint from specific browsers. Here are some examples
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [Background]
|
||||
export default defineBackground({
|
||||
// Only include a background script when targeting chrome
|
||||
include: ['chrome'],
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [Content Script]
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
// Do not add this content script to the manifest when targeting firefox
|
||||
exclude: ['firefox'],
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```html [HTML page]
|
||||
<!-- entrypoints/options.html -->
|
||||
<html>
|
||||
<head>
|
||||
<!-- Don't include the options page for safari -->
|
||||
<meta name="manifest.exclude" content="['safari']" />
|
||||
</head>
|
||||
</html>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Second, you can change individual options per-browser:
|
||||
|
||||
:::code-group
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [Background]
|
||||
export default defineBackground({
|
||||
persistent: {
|
||||
// Use a non-persistent background script for just safari
|
||||
safari: false,
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
```ts [Content Script]
|
||||
export default defineContentScript({
|
||||
matches: {
|
||||
// Run the content script on different pages for each browser
|
||||
chrome: ['*://*.google.com/*'],
|
||||
firefox: ['*://*.duckduckgo.com/*'],
|
||||
edge: ['*://*.bing.com/*'],
|
||||
},
|
||||
});
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
:::warning
|
||||
Only `defineBackground` and `defineContentScript` support per-browser options right now.
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
## Runtime
|
||||
|
||||
To determine the browser or manifest version at runtime, you can use any of the below variables:
|
||||
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.BROWSER`: A string, the target browser, usually equal to the `--browser` flag
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.MANIFEST_VERSION`: A number, either `2` or `3`, depending on the manifest version targeted
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.CHROME`: A boolean equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "chrome"`
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.FIREFOX`: A boolean equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "firefox"`
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.EDGE`: A boolean equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "edge"`
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.SAFARI`: A boolean equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "safari"`
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.OPERA`: A boolean equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "opera"`
|
||||
- `import.meta.env.COMMAND`: A string, `"serve"` when running `wxt` for development or `"build"` in all other cases.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
These variables are constants defined at build time based on the build target. They do not actually detect which browser the code is running in.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you build for `--browser chrome` and publish it on Edge, `import.meta.env.BROWSER` will be `"chrome"`, not `"edge"`. You have to build a separate ZIP for `--browser edge` before `import.meta.env.BROWSER` will be `"edge"`.
|
||||
|
||||
If you need to know the actual browser your code is being ran on, you should use a [user agent parser](https://www.npmjs.com/package/ua-parser-js).

# Web Extension Polyfill
|
||||
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
WXT is built on top [`webextension-polyfill` by Mozilla](https://www.npmjs.com/package/webextension-polyfill). The polyfill standardizes much of web extension APIs so they behave the same across different browsers and manifest versions.
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike with Chrome Extension development, which uses a `chrome` global, you need to import the `browser` variable from WXT to access the extension APIs:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
import { browser } from 'wxt/browser';
|
||||
|
||||
console.log(browser.runtime.id);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If you use auto-imports (enabled by default), you don't need to import this variable, it will work just like the `chrome` global:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
console.log(browser.runtime.id);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Handling Differences
|
||||
|
||||
Web extensions behave **_VERY_** differently between browsers and manifest versions. You will have to handle these API differences yourself.
|
||||
|
||||
:::info
|
||||
MDN has great compatibility tables for tracking which browsers support which APIs: [Web Extension Browser Support for JavaScript APIs](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Browser_support_for_JavaScript_APIs)
|
||||
:::
|
||||
|
||||
Lets go over a few approaches:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Feature detection**: If an API isn't available, it is `undefined`. So check if that's the case before using it.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
if (browser.runtime.onStartup) {
|
||||
browser.runtime.onStartup.addListener(...);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If there's a similar API you can fallback on, you can do something like this:
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
(browser.action ?? browser.browserAction).setBadgeColor('red');
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Check the browser**: WXT provides environment variables about which browser is being targeted.
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
if (!import.meta.env.SAFARI) {
|
||||
// Safari doesn't implement `onStartup` correctly, so we need a custom solution
|
||||
// ...
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
browser.runtime.onStartup.addListener(...)
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
3. **Check the manifest version**: WXT provides environment variables about which manifest version is being targeted.
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
if (import.meta.env.MANIFEST_VERSION === 3) {
|
||||
// MV3 only code...
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
// MV2 only code...
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Environment Variables
|
||||
|
||||
| Name | Type | Description |
|
||||
| ---------------------------------- | --------- | ----------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.BROWSER` | `string` | The target browser |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.MANIFEST_VERSION` | `2 │ 3` | The target manifest version |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.CHROME` | `boolean` | equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "chrome"` |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.FIREFOX` | `boolean` | equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "firefox"` |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.SAFARI` | `boolean` | equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "safari"` |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.EDGE` | `boolean` | equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "edge"` |
|
||||
| `import.meta.env.OPERA` | `boolean` | equivalent to `import.meta.env.BROWSER === "opera"` |
|
||||
|
||||
WXT uses Vite, so all of Vite's `import.meta.env` variables are also available:
|
||||
|
||||
<https://vitejs.dev/guide/env-and-mode#env-variables>
|
||||
|
||||
## Augmented Types
|
||||
|
||||
Based on the files in your project, WXT will modify some of the polyfill's types to be type-safe.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, `browser.runtime.getURL` will be typed to only allow getting the URL of known files. `browser.i18n.getMessage` will only allow getting translations of messages defined in your `public/_locales/<default-locale>/messages.json` file.
|
||||
|
||||
## Missing Types
|
||||
|
||||
Some newer APIs that Chrome provides are missing types. Don't worry, the APIs are present at runtime! The polyfill only provides types for standard and stable APIs that work on all browsers, so just be careful when you use them.
|
||||
|
||||
If you're using TypeScript, you can use `@ts-expect-error` to ignore any errors when using an API that doesn't have any types.
|
||||
|
||||
```ts
|
||||
// @ts-expect-error: desktopCapture is not typed
|
||||
browser.desktopCapture.chooseDesktopMedia(...)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Note that when running this code in a different browser that doesn't support the `desktopCapture` API, `browser.desktopCapture` will evaluate to `undefined` and an error will be thrown.
|
||||
|
||||
## Missing Permissions
|
||||
|
||||
Just like with the `chrome` global, you need to request the required permissions to use each API. Otherwise, `browser.{apiName}` will be `undefined`.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, if you try to use `browser.storage.local.getItem(...)` without requesting the `storage` permission, the extension will throw an error:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Cannot access property "local" of undefined.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can request permissions using the [`wxt.config.ts` file](/guide/directory-structure/wxt-config#permissions).
