## Development

### Adding new website

1. Add record to `sites.json`

2. Add a domain to matches in manifest

3. Bump version in manifest

4. Test locally and create a pull request

See [this commit](https://github.com/richja/paid-notify/commit/94c5840020e676cad1e8991aeda69ba078f58a17) for an example.

Arguments for a record in `sites.json`:

- website hostname

- function to call

- argument for called function

- [delay on called function, 0 by default]

- [sample url where notification should be visible]

- [sample url where notification should NOT be visible]))

### Using Gulp tasks

1. Run `npm install` to get Gulp ready

2. Run `gulp` to pack and minify all the files to a zipped folder

3. Gulp will generate versions for both Chrome and Firefox

Having issues running Gulp from command line?  

Run `npm i -g gulp-cli` and try again

### Tests

Run `npm test` to run all tests  

(You may need to run `gulp dist:chrome` first)
