如何知道哪个内容脚本与 Firefox 附加组件中的后台通信？

Question

According to this simple example : how to know which content script (which tab) is actually sending a message to the background (line 10)? For example with the tab id.

Answer 1

In the example for background-script.js, the portFromCS has a sender property: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/runtime/Port

That sender is an object which contains tab and in particular tab.id https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/API/runtime/MessageSender

/* background-script.js */
browser.runtime.onConnect.addListener(port => {
    port.onMessage.addListener((msg) => {
        console.log("bg received", msg, "from tab", port.sender.tab.id);
    });
});

You can also do "one-off" or connection-less messages with browser.runtime.onMessage

the handler has signature (msg, sender, reply) , where sender is the same MessageSender object as above.
