google chrome extension - Why isn't my background script getting executed? -
i added simple background script chrome extension.
my manifest.json
file:
{ "name" : "test extension", "version" : "1.0", "description" : "test extension.", "background" : { "scripts": ["background.js"] }, "devtools_page": "devtools.html", "permissions": ["http://*/*", "https://*/*"], "manifest_version": 2 }
i go chrome://extensions
, select background.js
in inspect views
.
it opens devtools go sources , add break point background.js
:
function foo() { return 5; } foo(); //break point here
then reload extension in chrome://extensions
. nothing happens. breakpoint not triggered. background script running @ all?
simple answer... struggled while too...
once click background.html
(or background.js
), open in separate debugger window. @ point, reload hitting f5
or ctrl-f5
key(s) debugger window (while in focus).
note: may receive errors recreating objects exist (since created when first clicked on page(or script)
