Version 0.7 uses the Browser Actions API.

The Chrome add-on is still under development and may be missing some features present in our other add-ons. It is usable though and we encourage anyone interested in Chrome to test it.

Requirements

The add-on requires a current development version of Chrome. It's been tested on the Windows version of Chrome, but should also work on Linux and Mac versions once their add-on support reaches the same level.

Please notice that the Terms of Service apply to all WOT services. If you use the software or the API as a part of your own application or redistribute and modify the software, the API Terms of Service apply too.

Downloads

You can install v0.6 of the add-on (or if you have Chrome ≥ 4.0.223.5, install v0.7 instead) or download the source code in a more convenient format. After installing, you can always update to the latest version by opening chrome://extensions and pressing the "Update all extensions now" button.

Development notes

  • We currently use a toolstrip and a mole for the toolbar button and the rating window, but will move to Browser Actions as soon as the API has been finalized.
  • The add-on determines the user interface language using the i18n.getAcceptLanguages API. Therefore, depending on your configuration, the selected language may not match Chrome's user interface.

If you are interested in participating in the development process, you are welcome to email us patches for improvements and bug fixes.
