How to upload a crossrider extension to Safari and Mozilla Extension store

942 views Asked by At

I have created a crossrider extension that is working superbly well across all the supported browsers. I could easily install this extension from the download link that crossrider supplys. But as the extension will be used mostly by our clients, how do I get this extension into the Mozilla and Safari extension stores respectively. Crossrider only supplies a ZIP file for the Chrome extension store but not these two others.

I’m happy to hear that your extension is working well using the Crossrider cross browser framework.

Regarding uploading the extension to the respective stores:

  • Safari Store: To upload the extension to the Safari Store, navigate to the Safari Extension Submission page and use the following information in the specified fields (Where [ExtId], [ExtName] are your extension id and name respectively):

Extension Bundle Identifier: com.app[ExtId]

e.g. ExtId99999

Download URL: http://app-static.crossrider.com/safari/[ExtId]/0/0/0/[ExtName].safariextz?ver=1.29

e.g. http://app-static.crossrider.com/safari/99999/0/0/0/My-Ext-Name.safariextz?ver=1.29

Update Manifest URL: https://w9u6a2p6.ssl.hwcdn.net/plugin/safari/update/[ExtId].plist

https://w9u6a2p6.ssl.hwcdn.net/plugin/safari/update/99999.plist

Extension Version: 1.29

  • Firefox Store: Crossrider's Export to AMO feature is a feature that used to work but due to changes in Mozilla requirements is not currently available. For the latest information, I recommend that you monitor our changelog and/or changelog RSS feed.
