gecko: test with firefox 4.0, and update version info http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2010/11/11/making-add-on-compatible-firefox-4/ will have to attach the button to the 'addon bar', rather than the status bar the addon bar is a standard 'toolbar', so things have to be rewritten accordingly http://mike.kaply.com/2011/01/25/the-firefox-4-add-on-bar-for-developers/ https://developer.mozilla.org/en/The_add-on_bar https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XUL/Toolbars/Creating_toolbar_buttons this means i'll have to set the icon image using css - note that this can be a svg (see http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2010/12/02/toolbar-buttons-in-firefox-4/ ) include a 64x64 icon for the addon manager hopefully done by just putting in root - needs testing as iconURL vs icon64URL documentation conflicts do try a straight svg here too (just called icon.svg) (prob won't work) https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Install_Manifests#iconURL get working with firefox mobile https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec/Extensions finish update support. this means use tool http://www.softlights.net/projects/mxtools/uhura.html to sign mozilla thing once it's working look into using rapper and bourne shell script to sign this is difficult as mozilla wants the signature of a very particular serialisation of the update rdf https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Extension_Versioning,_Update_and_Compatibility#Update_RDF_Format openssl dgst -sha512 -binary -sign private.pem web/gecko-updates.rdf i'm pretty sure generates the correct signature. however it then has to be encoded, using asn1/der & base64. also, according to the docs only the hash is signed/hashed, whereas it looks like the whole (particularly serialised) rdf is used by uhura build: set website from makefile variable / sed everywhere add clauses to makefile so make can work without a private key (for easy 3rd party modifications etc) web: change 'download simplyread' button to 'simplyread 0.4 source' test: current tests test the keyboard shortcut, by sending an event; e=document.createEvent(... e.initEvent(... e.keyCode = ... document.body.dispatchEvent(e) window.close directly after logging to the console make tests for chromium and firefox engines https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Automated_testing_tips_and_tricks https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Mozmill_Tests/Addon_tests
