WARNING: You can only use one "package manager" at a time! Mixing them will lead to undesired results.

Usage

You must first pack/zip your plugin before running auto.

These environment variables tell auto what to publish.

• EXTENSION_ID - your chrome extensions unique ID (REQUIRED)
• EXTENSION_BUILD - Path to either a zip file, or a directory to be zip. defaults to extension.zip

Or you can set these values in the autorc:

{
  "plugins": [
    [
      "chrome",
      {
        "id": "1234",
        "build": "path/to/zip/or/folder",
        "manifest": "path/tp/manifest.json"
      }
    ]
  ]
}
{
  "plugins": [
    [
      "chrome",
      {
        "id": "1234",
        "build": "path/to/zip/or/folder",
        "manifest": "path/tp/manifest.json"
      }
    ]
  ]
}

⚠️ You must have a manifest.json for this plugin to work.
