generator-userscript v1.0.1

generator-userscript

Yeoman generator for building userscripts with TypeScript and Webpack

Installation

First, install Yeoman and generator-userscript using npm (we assume you have pre-installed node.js).

npm install -g yo
npm install -g generator-userscript

Then generate your new project:

yo userscript

Authoring your script

• Script metadata can be specified insrc/meta.json.
  • The contents of this file is validated using the meta.schema.json JSON schema.
  • By default the script is configured to run on all pages. It is recommended to set up the include property with rules to be run only on pages the script supports.
• Script code is written in TypeScript and located in src/index.ts. You can split your code to modules and include them with an import directive.
• CSS styles to be injected into web pages can be specified in src/index.css or any other CSS file imported into src/index.ts.
  • If you do not need custom CSS styles, remove the import to exclude CSS injecting code from the compiled script.
  • If you prefer other styling languages like LESS or SASS, you can install a corresponding Webpack loader and configure it in the webpack.config.ts file.

Building your script

• All script files are combined into a single JS file with Webpack. The resulting file will be placed into the dest/ directory.
• To build a human-readable version of your script, run npm build in the Node.js command propmt.
• To build a minified version of your script, run npm build:prod in the Node.js command propmt.
