I don't understand how to migrate from manifest v2 to v3 in part of Service Worker. Occurs error Service worker registration failed
// manifest.json
"background": {
"service_worker": "/script/background/background.js"
},
// background.js
chrome.runtime.onInstalled.addListener(onInstalled);
Please find below the cause for your specific issue and the cause for not getting the details of failure in the console log.
Before Chrome 93, the service worker file must be in the root path where manifest.json is.
This is a limitation of Service Worker specification, relaxed for extensions since Chrome 93.
If, for whatever reason, you want to allow your extension to be used in older Chrome, the correct manifest.json should look like this:
"background": {
"service_worker": "background.js"
},
Conversely, to use an arbitrary path you need to prevent installation in older Chrome:
"minimum_chrome_version": "93",
"background": {
"service_worker": "js/bg/worker-loader.js",
"type": "module"
},
Type module
is optional and is supported since Chrome 92. You can import ES modules statically for now. The support for dynamic imports is in development.
In any Chrome version you can use importScripts('/path/foo.js', '/path/bar.js');
to import scripts from other directories.
If the worker script throws an error at installation, the worker won't be registered and you will not be getting the error information triggered by your service worker in the console, but only get "Service worker registration failed". This behavior is due to a bug bug in Chrome versions earlier than Chrome 93.
Solution:
Limited workaround:
Typical causes:
chrome
API without declaring it in manifest.json's permissions
