Google has scheduled June 3rd to begin the process of phasing out support for the second version of the Chrome manifest, which defines the capabilities and resources available for extensions written using the WebExtensions API. Initially, support for the second version of the manifest was set to end in January 2023, but the deadlines were shifted several times. Starting June 3rd, in the Chrome Beta, Dev, and Canary branches, a notification will start appearing on the extension management page (chrome:\/\/extensions) for users with installed extensions that utilize the second version of the manifest, informing them about the upcoming end of support for these extensions. Extensions based on the second version of the manifest will also lose the 'recommended' tag. <\/p>\n
subsequently, a gradual process will begin to disable extensions using the second version of the manifest, and users will be prompted to install available alternatives from the Chrome Web Store that have transitioned to the third version of the manifest. For some time, users will be given the ability to revert disabled extensions; however, this functionality will be removed over time. The changes related to the discontinuation of support for the second version of the manifest will initially be applied to the test branches of Chrome (Beta, Dev, and Canary), but in the following months, they will also affect stable releases. The transition away from the second version of the manifest is planned to be completed by the beginning of next year. Corporate users will be allowed to postpone the discontinuation of support for the second version of the manifest until June 2025. <\/p>\n
It is noted that Google resolved all major issues that hindered the transition to the third version of the manifest last year and considered functional requests, for instance, increasing the allowable number of static rules in the declarativeNetRequest API to 330,000, and dynamic rules to 30,000. Currently, around 85% of extensions in the Chrome Web Store already support the third version of the manifest, including the most popular content filtering extensions\u2014AdBlock, Adblock Plus, uBlock Origin, and AdGuard. <\/p>\n
The third version of the Chrome manifest has been developed as part of an initiative to simplify the creation of safe and high-performance extensions, while complicating the ability to create unsafe and slow extensions. The main dissatisfaction with the third version of the manifest stems from the transition of the webRequest API to read-only mode, which allowed for the integration of custom handlers with full access to network requests and the ability to modify traffic on the fly. Instead of the webRequest API, the third version of the manifest introduces a limited-feature declarativeNetRequest API, which provides access to a built-in filtering engine that autonomously processes blocking rules and does not permit the use of custom filtering algorithms. <\/p>\n
The new manifest also transitions to executing Service Workers as background processes and employs a granular permission request model (the extension cannot activate immediately for all pages but will only function in the context of the active tab). The handling of Cross-origin requests has been changed\u2014the same permission restrictions that apply to the main page into which these scripts are injected now also apply to content processing scripts (for example, if the page does not have access to the location API, then the extension script will also not gain this access). Execution of code loaded from external sources is prohibited. servers<\/a> (when the extension loads and executes external code). \u041a\u043e\u043c\u043f\u0430\u043d\u0438\u044f Google
