# Metamask Plugin [](https://travis-ci.com/MetaMask/metamask-plugin)
|
|
|
|
## Development
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install
|
|
```
|
|
### Developing with Gulp
|
|
|
|
We're using an experimental version of `gulp-cli`, so if you have the old version of gulp, you'll need to uninstall it, `npm uninstall -g gulp`, and install this one instead:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
npm install gulpjs/gulp-cli#4.0 -g
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After that, you can just:
|
|
```bash
|
|
gulp dev
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### In Chrome
|
|
|
|
Open `Settings` > `Extensions`.
|
|
|
|
Check "Developer mode".
|
|
|
|
At the top, click `Load Unpacked Extension`.
|
|
|
|
Navigate to your `metamask-plugin/dist` folder.
|
|
|
|
Click `Select`.
|
|
|
|
You now have the plugin, and can click 'inspect views: background plugin' to view its dev console.
|
|
|
|
### Developing the UI
|
|
|
|
To enjoy the live-reloading that `gulp dev` offers while working on the `web3-provider-engine` or other dependencies:
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the dependency locally.
|
|
2. `npm install` in its folder.
|
|
3. Run `npm link` in its folder.
|
|
4. Run `npm link $DEP_NAME` in this project folder.
|
|
5. Next time you `gulp dev` it will watch the dependency for changes as well!
|
|
|
|
### Running Tests
|
|
|
|
Requires `mocha` installed. Run `npm install -g mocha`.
|
|
|
|
Then just run `npm test`.
|
|
|
|
You can also test with a continuously watching process, via `npm run watch`.
|
|
|
|
### Deploying the UI
|
|
|
|
You must be authorized already on the Metamask plugin.
|
|
|
|
0. Update the version in `app/manifest.json` and the Changelog in `CHANGELOG.md`.
|
|
1. Visit [the chrome developer dashboard](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/developer/dashboard?authuser=2).
|
|
2. Zip the `dist` folder in this repository.
|
|
3. Upload that zip file as the updated package.
