I’ve pushed out an update for my Chrome extension, Panel View for Keep. It’s just a minor update, bringing it up to version 2.1.
A little while ago, the panel view of the extension stopped working. Instead, users would see this:
I figured it must have been an update of Google’s that broke the app — the same thing happened to my Play Music extension when they updated the UI. As it turns out, it was a simple enough fix. Since the extension works by laying additional CSS and JavaScript on top of the Keep website, the manifest.json
permissions and content scripts request access to https://drive.google.com/keep. That’s not the URL that Google uses for Keep anymore, though; now they’re using https://keep.google.com, so I had to update the permissions as follows:
"permissions": [ "tabs", "storage", "contextMenus", "https://drive.google.com/keep/*", "https://keep.google.com/*" ]
I added the same URL to the content script entries as well:
"matches": [ "https://drive.google.com/keep/*", "https://keep.google.com/*" ]
In addition to publishing this latest version to the Chrome Store, I’ve also committed it to the public Github repository. You know, if you’re into that kind of thing.
