Unable to load into Chrome? Migrate to MV3?
Hi, I have very little programming experience so I am likely missing something basic, but when I attempt to follow the instructions in the Readme I get this error from Chrome: "At least one js or css file is required for 'content_scripts[0]'. Could not load manifest." This is after realizing I needed to direct it to the src>static folder to find the manifest. Is there a .css file I need to make here for Chrome to recognize this as a valid extension?
There are three assets in the release page: https://github.com/eight04/image-picka/releases/tag/v0.19.0
-
image_picka-0.19.0.zip- this is the ready-to-use extension. -
Source code (zip)- this is the source code of the repository, compressed into zip. -
Source code (tar.gz)- this is the source code of the repository, compressed into tar.gz.
I guess you downloaded the source code since it doesn't contain a usable manifest.
If you want to compile the source code into the extension zip by yourself, you can follow the instruction here: https://github.com/eight04/image-picka/blob/master/BUILD.md
Otherwise, you should download image_picka-0.19.0.zip.
I think it because Manifest V2 not support anymore
