During startup Sandcat will check all extensions for a Manifest.json file contained within the extension's ZIP package. The following is an example of a manifest file:

{
 "name": "Hello World Extension",
 "version": "1.0",
 "author": "Me",
 "script": {
  "filename": "hello.lua",
  "init": "Hello:register()",
 }
}

Manifest Keys

• name* - The extension name
• version* - The extension version. If 'file:[dllfilename]' is used as version, the browser will read the version from the supplied DLL file.
• description - The extension description
• script* - The Lua code
  • filename - The main Lua script file contained within the extension's ZIP package. This script will be loaded and executed during the browser startup
  • init - Can contain a Lua script to be executed during the browser startup. If script.filename has been provided, executes after the script file has been loaded.
  • shutdown - A Lua script to be executed during the browser shutdown
