In a Google Chrome application is it possible to access bundled data files from within the background.js
script?
E.g. if I had a file called data.json
that I include with the app, is there a JavaScript API that I could use in the background.js
script to get at the files contents?
With the example bundle directory structure:
/app/manfifest.json
/app/backround.js
/app/data.json
I want to do something like:
chrome.app.runtime.onLaunched.addListener(function() {
data = unknown.api.loadFileSync("data.json");
// do stuff with data
// ...
});
