Claude Code के साथ Browser Extensions कैसे Develop करें

Claude Code से Browser Extension Development को Accelerate करें

Chrome extension development में Manifest V3 specification, content script, background service worker, popup UI जैसी बहुत सी knowledge ज़रूरी होती है। Claude Code से natural language में instructions देकर ये सब generate किया जा सकता है।

Project Initial Setup

> Chrome extension का project बनाओ।
> Manifest V3 में, popup screen और content script use करने वाली configuration।
> TypeScript + Vite से build हो सके।

Claude Code द्वारा generate किया गया manifest.json example:

{
  "manifest_version": 3,
  "name": "My Extension",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "Claude Code से बनाई Chrome extension",
  "permissions": ["storage", "activeTab"],
  "action": {
    "default_popup": "popup.html",
    "default_icon": {
      "16": "icons/icon16.png",
      "48": "icons/icon48.png",
      "128": "icons/icon128.png"
    }
  },
  "content_scripts": [
    {
      "matches": ["<all_urls>"],
      "js": ["content.js"],
      "css": ["content.css"]
    }
  ],
  "background": {
    "service_worker": "background.js",
    "type": "module"
  }
}

Popup UI Implementation

Extension icon click करने पर display होने वाला popup।

// popup.ts
interface Settings {
  enabled: boolean;
  highlightColor: string;
  fontSize: number;
}

const defaultSettings: Settings = {
  enabled: true,
  highlightColor: "#ffeb3b",
  fontSize: 14,
};

async function loadSettings(): Promise<Settings> {
  const result = await chrome.storage.sync.get("settings");
  return { ...defaultSettings, ...result.settings };
}

async function saveSettings(settings: Settings) {
  await chrome.storage.sync.set({ settings });
  // Content script को settings change notify करें
  const [tab] = await chrome.tabs.query({ active: true, currentWindow: true });
  if (tab.id) {
    chrome.tabs.sendMessage(tab.id, { type: "SETTINGS_UPDATED", settings });
  }
}

document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", async () => {
  const settings = await loadSettings();

  const enabledCheckbox = document.getElementById("enabled") as HTMLInputElement;
  const colorInput = document.getElementById("color") as HTMLInputElement;
  const fontSizeInput = document.getElementById("fontSize") as HTMLInputElement;

  enabledCheckbox.checked = settings.enabled;
  colorInput.value = settings.highlightColor;
  fontSizeInput.value = String(settings.fontSize);

  enabledCheckbox.addEventListener("change", () => {
    settings.enabled = enabledCheckbox.checked;
    saveSettings(settings);
  });

  colorInput.addEventListener("input", () => {
    settings.highlightColor = colorInput.value;
    saveSettings(settings);
  });

  fontSizeInput.addEventListener("input", () => {
    settings.fontSize = parseInt(fontSizeInput.value);
    saveSettings(settings);
  });
});

Content Script Implementation

Web page content operate करने वाला content script। यहाँ page text highlight feature implement करते हैं।

// content.ts
let settings: Settings = {
  enabled: true,
  highlightColor: "#ffeb3b",
  fontSize: 14,
};

function highlightText(searchTerm: string) {
  if (!settings.enabled || !searchTerm) return;

  const walker = document.createTreeWalker(
    document.body,
    NodeFilter.SHOW_TEXT,
    null
  );

  const matches: { node: Text; index: number }[] = [];

  while (walker.nextNode()) {
    const node = walker.currentNode as Text;
    const index = node.textContent?.toLowerCase().indexOf(searchTerm.toLowerCase()) ?? -1;
    if (index !== -1) {
      matches.push({ node, index });
    }
  }

  matches.reverse().forEach(({ node, index }) => {
    const range = document.createRange();
    range.setStart(node, index);
    range.setEnd(node, index + searchTerm.length);

    const highlight = document.createElement("mark");
    highlight.style.backgroundColor = settings.highlightColor;
    highlight.className = "ext-highlight";
    range.surroundContents(highlight);
  });
}

function clearHighlights() {
  document.querySelectorAll(".ext-highlight").forEach((el) => {
    const parent = el.parentNode;
    if (parent) {
      parent.replaceChild(document.createTextNode(el.textContent || ""), el);
      parent.normalize();
    }
  });
}

// Message listener
chrome.runtime.onMessage.addListener((message, _sender, sendResponse) => {
  if (message.type === "HIGHLIGHT") {
    clearHighlights();
    highlightText(message.term);
    sendResponse({ success: true });
  }
  if (message.type === "SETTINGS_UPDATED") {
    settings = message.settings;
  }
});

Background Service Worker Implementation

// background.ts
chrome.runtime.onInstalled.addListener(() => {
  // Context menu add करें
  chrome.contextMenus.create({
    id: "highlight-selection",
    title: "Selected text highlight करें",
    contexts: ["selection"],
  });
});

chrome.contextMenus.onClicked.addListener(async (info, tab) => {
  if (info.menuItemId === "highlight-selection" && tab?.id) {
    await chrome.tabs.sendMessage(tab.id, {
      type: "HIGHLIGHT",
      term: info.selectionText,
    });
  }
});
