Hello everyone,
I was wondering if any of you have ever made a chrome extension linked to your app.
I made the extension creation tutorial: https://blog.flutterflow.io/building-a-chrome-extension/
And I was able to follow some tutorials for creating extensions in javascript.
I would like to create an extension that works with a webapp, for example to export the link of the window in one click with the chrome extension, then find it in the webapp thanks to its firebase account on the webapp.
In short a chrome extension that uses firebase preferably, or supabase/ other, to then interact or at least be able to extract some information from the active window.
Thank you in advance!
Edit 1 : Reddit user Nirewi1508 asked how to collect text on a webpage with this post on r/flutterflow, a similar question, which for the moment does not have a solution on flutterflow apparently
Edit 2 : I've got some bad news for myself and those who will be reading this post in the future : from this medium post : Building a Chrome Extension using Flutter, that looks like it greatly inspired the flutterflow tutorial on how to build chrome extensions with its app, states that :
2. Couldn’t use Firebase (should be possible)
If you remember, initially we modified the
index.htmlfile to remove most of the<script>tags. This is to satisfy the Content Security Policy (CSP) rules. Manifest V3 doesn’t support the inline execution of third-party URLs.BUT I have tried to run an older project which doesn’t use the Dart-only initialization of Firebase in Flutter (most probably that should solve it as you won’t need to define the Firebase plugins inside the
<script>tag in that case).
The night before seeing that post, I tried creating an app : they both did the same : launch a website on the click of a button, one with firebase, one without it, the one with it, without even using it, creates multiple errors.
I now have to look how to create a project that does not use "Dart-only initialization of Firebase"
