扩展示例

为帮助了解如何开发扩展，我们维护了一个包含简单扩展示例的代码仓库在 https://github.com/mdn/webextensions-examples。本文描述了仓库代码中所使用的 WebExtension API。

这些示例工作在 Firefox Nightly 下：大部分示例在 Firefox 的早期版本中也能够运行，请检查扩展 manifest.json 文件中的 strict_min_version 键。

警告： 有些示例只能在特定的域或页面下运行。每个示例的限制都已在其自述文件中详述。默认情况下，这些示例都不能在浏览器的隐私浏览窗口中运行，参阅隐私浏览下的扩展了解详情。

如果你想尝试这些示例，请克隆仓库，然后使用以下选项之一安装并运行扩展：

通过“临时加载附加组件”特性直接从源代码文件夹中载入扩展。
安装 web-ext，在命令行打开扩展的源代码文件夹，然后使用 web-ext run。

该扩展会在你重新启动 Firefox 之前保持加载状态。

警告： 不要提交这些关于 WebExtension 例子的示例到 AMO（addons.mozilla.org）上去，你无需为附加组件签名就能运行 WebExtension 的示例。只要按照上面的步骤来就可以了。
