如何通过javascript重新加载chrome扩展程序？

Question

I'm trying to make that if you press a button in the popup window in my chrome extension, it will reload the extension. Is that possible?

Answer 1

刚刚找到此方法 ，它确实满足我的要求：

chrome.runtime.reload();

Answer 2

Add this code to manifest.json:

"background": {
  "persistent": false,
  "scripts": [ "background.js" ]
}

Add this code to background.js:

chrome.browserAction.onClicked.addListener(function(tab) {
  chrome.runtime.reload();
});
