See the last 6 comments on issue #25 #25 (comment)

can even make the whole extension be:

const script = document.createElement('script');
script.textContent = 'setInterval(() => window._lact = Date.now(), 900000);';
script.onload = function () {
    this.remove();
};
(document.head || document.documentElement).appendChild(script);

btw I have tested this method for hundred of hours and never had problems

@Araxeus But now the logging functionality is there. So you can see when it resets the time. Other, like your code, you can't see when it does something.

The whole point is that you dont need to see anything - this just works no logging needed 😋

logging that the interval is working every 15 min isn't achieving anything IMO (its fine for initial testing, not very useful for deployment)

@Araxeus That's true

yeah well also if u wanna use manifest v3 in chrome it doesn't work this way

you have to inject an external page, like so:

function loadPageAccess() {
    const pageAccess = document.createElement('script');
    pageAccess.src = chrome.runtime.getURL('pageAccess.js');
    pageAccess.onload = function () {
        this.remove();
    };
    (document.head || document.documentElement).appendChild(pageAccess);
}

but then its funny cuz pageAccess.js will be just

setInterval(() => window._lact = Date.now(), 900000);

and in the manifest (should probably also update to v3)

 "web_accessible_resources": [
    {
      "resources": [ "pageAccess.js" ],
      "matches": [ "https://www.youtube.com/*", "https://music.youtube.com/*" ]
    }
  ],

like in my extension https://github.com/Araxeus/Youtube-Volume-Scroll/blob/main/manifest.json

You don't need a background.js anymore than?

Because now it reads:

chrome.runtime.onInstalled.addListener(() => {
  chrome.declarativeContent.onPageChanged.removeRules(undefined, () => {
    chrome.declarativeContent.onPageChanged.addRules([
      {
        conditions: [
          new chrome.declarativeContent.PageStateMatcher({
            pageUrl: { hostEquals: 'www.youtube.com' }
          }),
          new chrome.declarativeContent.PageStateMatcher({
            pageUrl: { hostEquals: 'music.youtube.com' }
          })
        ],
        actions: [new chrome.declarativeContent.ShowPageAction()]
      }
    ]);
  });
});

I dont know whats the purpose of that popup

you dont have to remove it tho

[Nomes77]

This can be:

    function log(message) {
      console.log(`${tag}[${getMilliseconds()}] ${message}`);
    }

[Nomes77]

This can be:

    function getMilliseconds() {
      return +new Date();
    }

[Nomes77]

This whole file can be:

const script = document.createElement('script');
script.textContent = 'setInterval(() => window._lact = Date.now(), 900000);';
script.onload = function () {
    this.remove();
};
(document.head || document.documentElement).appendChild(script);

If you don't need any logging in the console.

See #43 (comment) for a much sorter version.
Besides, your extension will be Manifest v3 (instead of v2).
