从传统的基于XUL的插件中访问Add-on SDK？

Question

I have a large and complex XUL-based addon for which I need to use a few functions from the Add-on SDK. Is this possible? If so, does anyone have working sample code, preferably using the page-worker module?

Answer 1

The following is the way devtools does it, but certain modules will choke (the obvious candidate being self ). I think you will have better luck with low-level modules.

let {Loader} = Cu.import("resource://gre/modules/commonjs/toolkit/loader.js", {});
let loader = new Loader.Loader({
  paths: {
    "": "resource://gre/modules/commonjs/"
  },
  globals: {},
});

let require = Loader.Require(loader, { id: "myaddon" })
// now you can require addon-sdk modules
