chrome-extension-manifest-webpack-plugin

Webpack plugin which allows you to modify your extension manifest

Usage:

const ChromeExtensionManifest = require('chrome-extension-manifest-webpack-plugin');

new ChromeExtensionManifest({
        inputFile: '../path/to/manifest.json',
        outputFile: '../path/to/manifest.json',
        replace: [{
           pattern: /__FOO__/g,
           value: args.foo
        }],
        hash: {
          pattern: /\[hash\]/g,
        },
        props: {
            version: getVersion(args.version)     
        }
})

Options:

inputFile: Existing manifest file.

The pattern should be a regular expression, default: /[hash]/g
replace: Array of objects with the follwing keys:\ pattern: pattern to search for\ value: value to be replaced with
options: An object containing optional flags
- allowEmpty: Allow defining an empty replacement value, default: false.
props: add new or overwrite manifest entries
