Falcon on other browsers?

Open aurelg opened this issue 8 years ago • 10 comments

Firefox user here: Falcon seems to be promising, but I'm not using Chrome. Would it be possible to support other browsers as well?

I tried to install this using Chrome Store Foxified to see if it would work without modification, but I got an error from Mozilla:

JavaScript syntax error

Error: There is a JavaScript syntax error in your code; validation cannot continue on this file. js/blacklist2.js line 1 column 298360

Should be fixed now! Do you know how we could go about packaging our extension as a FF plugin easily?

These two links may be helpful:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Porting_a_Google_Chrome_extension

The IRC channel may also be helpful.

FWIW, I tried to install the extension as unsigned; it installs, but the search doesn't do anything for me (Firefox Nightly on OS X):

Would also love to have a Safari extension of Falcon if possible, this looks really great.

Hey @aurelg lg @yoasif @ManUtopiK @nikitavoloboev Up until now, the Awesomebar didnt have an API endpoint like the chrome.omnibox At the WorldBrain project we work with Mozilla and in the upcoming release FF53 in April, this endpoitport will be possible.

It already works in the current nightly build, you can download here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/channel/desktop/?v=b

For Safari, we are currently investigating how to make the port possible.
