# No Login This is a Mozilla Firefox Add-On to access social media websites without logging in, by removing login popups, bypassing other banners, etc. Currently supported websites: - LinkedIn - Instagram - Facebook Note that the add-on is in its early phase; please submit a review for any issue or feature request. #### Demo ## Installation Install the extension - at [https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/no-login](https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/no-login), - or go to `Add-ons` and search for `no login`. Once installed, the extension will automatically and seamlessly work in the background. ### Locally Alternatively, you can install the extension from a local folder. This can be useful for easily testing a not-yet-published version of the extension, without having to set up a development environment. For example, a pull request might be in progress to address a user issue, and we would like the user to test the changes (without taking the risk to publish this version on the store). To do so: 1. Obtain the extension source code locally: clone the relevant repo or download and extract its zip file (e.g., [here](https://github.com/MartinBraquet/no-login/archive/main.zip) for the main branch) 2. Navigate to `about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox` in the Firefox URL search bar 3. Right next to `Temporary Extensions`, click on `Load Temporary Add-on...` 4. In the selection, click on any file in the root directory of the local extension ## Development ### Prerequisites - [Mozilla Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/new/) - [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/en/download/): 20.9.0 - [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/get-npm): 10.1.0 - [web-ext](https://extensionworkshop.com/documentation/develop/getting-started-with-web-ext/): 7.8.0 Other versions might work, but have not been tested. ### Set up environment 1. Clone the repo git clone [git@github.com](mailto:git@github.com):MartinBraquet/no-login.git 1. Install the prerequisitesFor Debian-based distributions:Install Node.js from these [instructions](https://deb.nodesource.com/). sudo apt install npm sudo npm install --global web-ext npm install . 1. Run the extension on desktop: npm run start Note: to run on a mobile device connected to your computer, first install the Firefox Nightly app on that mobile. Then set up `adb`: sudo apt install android-tools-adb adb devices Then, run the extension: npm run build web-ext run -t firefox-android --adb-device \ --firefox-apk org.mozilla.fenix ### Debugging 1. Open the browser console Ctrl + Shift + I Or `about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox` and click on `Inspect` to open the extension console. ### Testing npm test ### Build 1. Build the extension ./build.sh 1. The extension is now available in the `web-ext-artifacts` folder as a .zip file. ### Release When you update the version in [manifest.json](https://github.com/MartinBraquet/no-login/blob/main/manifest.json) and push the changes to the `main` branch, a GitHub action will automatically publish on the Mozilla Add-ons Store, as well as on GitHub. You can also add release notes (for the Add-ons Store) in [amo\_metadata.json](https://github.com/MartinBraquet/no-login/blob/main/amo_metadata.json). #### Old Fashioned Submission For users who want more control and visibility over the submission process of their own add-on, they can build and [submit](https://addons.mozilla.org/) the .zip file to Mozilla for review and publication. Note: naturally, you won’t be able to publish the same extension or overwrite the existing one. If your extension diverges from the current one, you can change the extension’s ID in the `manifest.json` file and publish it as a new extension in your own account. ## Mozilla Add-ons Store Go to the [store](https://github.com/MartinBraquet/no-login/blob/main/store) folder to view and update the texts on the Mozilla Add-ons Store. ## Feedback ### Short Comments Please write a [review](https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/no-login/reviews/) in the Firefox store. ### Issue / Bug Report / Feature Request - If you have a GitHub account, open an [issue](https://github.com/MartinBraquet/no-login/issues) here. - Otherwise, write your feedback in this [form](https://forms.gle/c87fsmy3tG1MmJaLA). ## Contributions To provide upgrades or fixes, please open a [pull request](https://github.com/MartinBraquet/no-login/pulls). If you would like to contribute, but you do not know what to do, here are some suggestions: - Provide a nice add-on logo in [images](https://github.com/MartinBraquet/no-login/blob/main/images) (the current one is very generic) - Add support for additional websites - Make the extension compatible with other browsers (e.g., Chrome, etc.) - Improve the extension’s [popup](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Add-ons/WebExtensions/user_interface/Popups) (right now it only shows the number of logins skipped).
