CHANGELOG.md

Changelog

1.1.2

• Support main world content script to be bundled. Also added a guide and example for this.

1.1.1

• Add a workaround for a Chrome bug of loading content script in a sandboxed iframe.

• Fix compatibility with mini-css-extract-plugin in Manifest v3

• Add a warning if background.pageEntry and background.serviceWorkerEntry are the same.

  The only chunk loading method serviceWorkerEntry supports is importScripts (ES Module is not supported yet) and pageEntry only supports <script> or import().

  The chunk loading methods they supported have no intersection, therefore this config is impossible to work. This will be a hard error in the next version.

1.1.0

• Deprecate background.entry and background.manifest in the config.
• Add background.pageEntry and background.serviceWorkerEntry in the config. Now you can build for both limited event page (used by Firefox and Safari) and background service worker (Chrome) in a single webpack build.

Migrations

If you have

• background.manifest = 3,
  1. remove background.manifest
  2. change background.entry to background.serviceWorkerEntry
• background.manifest = 2 (or undefined),
  1. remove background.manifest
  2. change background.entry to background.pageEntry
