General notes for the project, etc.
Could add this to the manifest.json
in order to add the ability to "search"
blockstack things natively without requiring the omnibox keyword bs
(in addition to making the main.html
page as the homepage and newtab page):
"chrome_settings_overrides": {
"homepage": "main.html",
"search_provider": {
"favicon_url": "assets/images/icon-48.png",
"is_default": true,
"keyword": "blockstack",
"name": "Blockstack Search",
"search_url": "https://blockstack.org/search/?q={searchTerms}",
"suggest_url": "https://blockstack.org/search/?q={searchTerms}&suggest=true"
}
},
"chrome_url_overrides": {
"newtab": "main.html"
}
It was tried out in testing but found to be a little annoying because this would
only be used for a "blockstack-only" browser, not a hybrid which is the goal of
this extension. In addition, the main page makes for a terrible newtab
page.
