VISULOX Firefox and Firefox extensions
Keep in mind, that extensions often require a certain version of the browser.
If the used browser is updated to the latest version, please check, if the wanted extension is still available.
The Firefox integration has the ability to install Firefox extensions in this independent context. This is done within the application call.
vlxshell -client firefox -E extentions1,extenstion2 -- <url>
The extensions are provided in ./etc/firefox/extensions. Each extension has a name, which is used as an argument. This name is a directory.
Below this direcory there are files: user.js file for the extension, the .xpi file with the extensions or the extracted extension.
It is important, that the extension file name or the exension dirname has the UUID of the extension.
The extension can be addressed via the vlxshell command with -E <name>. Multiple extensions can be applied: <name1>,<name2>,..
It is recommended to use Chromium instead of Firefox for kiosk mode.
