Chrome扩展程序如何响应按钮在页面中的点击？

Question

I'm making a first attempt at writing a Chrome extension and I want it to respond to a button click which resembles the facebook like button, G+ button, etc. This means that I'd like the extension to work on any page, but only respond to a button with a particular ID or something, which seems tricky with the "permission" and/or "matches" item of the JSON manifest.

Since I'm unfamiliar with extensions, should I have the button have its own javascript function which calls/activates the extension somehow, or should I have the extension have an event listener (would this be in a content script?) which listens for a particular button click event?

Note: I took a look at this question but the extension in that case was for a specific web page, so I'm not convinced that the answer will work for me.

Answer 1

First thing you want is that your extension should work on all pages, so include your content script in manifest as follows :

"content_scripts": [
    {
        "matches": [
            "<all_urls>"
        ],
        "js": [
            "jquery.js",
            "myscript.js"
        ]
    }

This will inject myscript.js in every page. Now just check if your desired button is present or not. eg :

if(document.getElementById('gplus') != null) {
   // Add your implementation.
   var g = document.getElementById('gplus');
   g.click = funct;
}

Now define function funct() according to yourself.

Answer 2

try using content scripts. They act like they are part of the page. if i had a document.getelementbyid("#hi").onclick=function(){}; and someone clicked a button with an id of "hi" inside the current page, the event would fire.
