Cannot load Atomic-Chrome extension in Chrome in developer mode
Current behaviour: When trying to load the atomic-chrome extension manually from a git repo, it doesn't work.
I get an error message saying the following:
Error Loading Extension
Failed to load extension from: ~/git/atomic-chrome/app
Could not load background script 'scripts/background.js'.
Expected behaviour: Should be possible to load extension from a copy of the source, or there should be instructions explaning how to make it work.
Versions: Linux: Debian 4.9.51-1 Chrome: Version 63.0.3239.84 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Steps to reproduce:
- Clone repo to ~/git git clone https://github.com/tuvistavie/atomic-chrome.git
- Open chrome://extensions in Chrome
- Tick "Developer Mode"
- Click "Load unpacked Extension" and navigate to git repo on local storage
I tried both the top level directory and the app directory for this.
Ping @tuvistavie
Is this a known problems?
Is there a workaround?
Hi, I suspect you did not compile the source code. Try running
npm install
npm run build
and try loading the app
directory after.
Let me know if that works for you.
