I am doing a chrome extension to find all the links on the page I am using browser_action. I get an error while refreshing the page, the chrome extension automatically runs javascript code. How can I make sure that if you click the update in the browser, the extension does not start? I want it to work only when you click the small icon on the toolbar.
This is what my manifest looks like
{
"name": "Find all first",
"version": "1.0",
"description": "Find all Linkes",
"browser_action": {
"default_icon": "icon.png",
"popup": "popup.html"
},
"icons": {
"16": "icon.png",
"128": "icon-big.png"
},
"permissions": [
"tabs",
"http://*/*",
"https://*/*"
],
"content_scripts": [ {
"matches": ["http://*/*", "https://*/*"],
"js": ["content.js"]
}]
}
Then I call this in my popup.html
chrome.tabs.executeScript(null, {file: 'content.js'}, function() {
console.log('Success');
});
