In firefox addon, I have main.js code :
var button = ToggleButton({
id: "ee-button",
label: "EE button",
icon: {
"16": "./icon-16.png",
"32": "./icon-32.png",
"64": "./icon-64.png"
},
onChange: captureVisibleTab
});
And within this file : (Ref : Tab screenshot)
function captureVisibleTab() {
.
.
.
.
var canvas = contentDocument.createElement('canvas');
canvas.style.maxwidth = region.width + "px";
canvas.style.maxheight = region.height + "px";
canvas.width = region.width;
canvas.height = region.height;
var ctx = canvas.getContext('2d');
ctx.clearRect(region.x, region.y, region.width, region.height);
ctx.drawWindow(contentWindow, region.x, region.y, region.width, region.height, backgroundColor);
var url = canvas.toDataURL();
tabs.open({
url: self.data.url("test.html"),
isPinned: false,
onOpen: function onOpen(tab) {
},
onReady: function(tab)
{
console.log('canvas : ' + (JSON.stringify(url)) );
tab.attach({
contentScript: 'document.body.style.border = "5px solid red"; document.body.appendChild("Test")'
});
}
});
return url;
}
I need to open a new tab with this image appended in the html.
* Tried : window.open => window not defined
* Tried : contentScript:'document.body.style.border = "5px solid red";' => works
* Tried : contentScript: 'document.body.style.border = "5px solid red"; document.body.appendChild("Test")' => error :
Message: TypeError: Argument 1 of Node.appendChild is not an object.
Stack: @javascript:document.body.style.border = "5px solid red"; document.body.appe
ndChild("Test"):1:47
for a url just use data url with html like this:
var escapedHtml = escape('<b>rawr</b><img src="blah">')
var url = 'data:text/html,' + escapedHtml
or so you dont have an ugly url in the bar, make your html a blob and load the blob url like this:
var {Blob, File} = Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/Services.jsm", {});
var oFileBody = '<a id="a"><b id="b">hey!</b></a>'; // the body of the new file...
var oBlob = Blob([oFileBody], { type: "text/html"});
var blobUrl = URL.createObjectURL(oBlob); //returns a string like blob:null/bbe1b94e-0800-4af2-9d9e-df09c0b9cab3 so paste that into your url bar
