为每个编辑器自定义应用程序脚本加载项菜单

Question

I've got an add-on that previously only targeted Google Docs, and I'm trying to expand the feature set to include Google Sheets. In development mode, I can set a conditional to detect which document type is active (docs or sheets) and then show the corresponding menu. When I publish the latest version of the add-on, the add-on menu stops working in both Docs and Sheets.

I'm guessing it has to do with the permissions around "onOpen()" but i'm not sure how else to handle this. The G Suite Marketplace allows you to designate that an add-on supports multiple editors.

Here's the code that works in development:

function onOpen(e) {

  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
  var doc = DocumentApp.getActiveDocument();

  if(ss != null && ss != undefined) {
    var sheetsUI = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
    sheetsUI.createAddonMenu()
      .addItem('Name', 'function')
      .addToUi();
  }

  if(doc != null && doc != undefined) {
    var docsUI = DocumentApp.getUi();

    docsUI.createAddonMenu()
    .addItem('Name', 'function')
    .addToUi();
  }  
}

If I remove the conditional stuff, and only include editor specific menu (docs for docs, sheets for sheets), the menus appear correctly.

You wouldn't want the user to need to approve access to their Sheets, if it's a Docs add-on and vice versa. And if the add-on doesn't have permission to one of them then your code would throw an error, so you need to trap the error with a try/catch

function onOpen(e) {
  var docUI,thisIsA_Sheet;

  try{
    docUI = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
    thisIsA_Sheet = true;
  }catch(e){
    //Do nothing
  }

  if (!thisIsA_Sheet) {//This is not a Google Sheet
    try{
      docUI = DocumentApp.getUi();
    }catch(e){
      //Do nothing
    }
  }

  docUI.createAddonMenu()
    .addItem('Name', 'function')
    .addToUi();

}

The comment about trapping errors led me to the solution. I placed each editor's menu code inside try/catch blocks, and now it works.

function onOpen(e) {

  try{
    var docsUI = SpreadsheetApp.getUi();
    docsUI.createAddonMenu()
    .addItem('Sheets menu item name', 'function')
    .addToUi();
  } catch(e) {
  }

  try{
    var docsUI = DocumentApp.getUi();
    docsUI.createAddonMenu()
    .addItem('Docs menu item name', 'function')
    .addToUi();
  } catch(e) {
  } 

}
