DDEV Gitpod Launcher Browser extension

This is the DDEV Gitpod Launcher browser extension, just a minor modification of the Gitpod Browser Extension (Thanks!). It supports Chrome (see Chrome Web Store), Firefox (see Firefox Add-ons) and Edge (see how to install Chrome extensions), and adds a DDEV button to the configured GitLab, GitHub and Bitbucket installations (defaults to gitlab.com, github.com, bitbucket.org, and gitlab.cn) which immediately creates a Gitpod workspace for the current Git context:

Build

Chrome & Firefox

yarn install && yarn build && yarn package

Safari

⚠️ A machine running macOS and Xcode 12+ installed is required!

First, run the following to install dependencies and build the web extension:

yarn install && yarn build && yarn package

Then run the build:safari command to build the Safari extension around the web extension:

yarn build:safari

Hit enter when presented with this screen.

Xcode will open the Gitpod.xcodeproj automatically if it's installed.

Test

Build the extension and

• unzip ddev.xpi and load it as “unpackaged extension” (Chrome) or
• load ddev.xpi as “temporary add-on” (Firefox) or
• open Gitpod/Gitpod.xcodeproj and run the project with cmd + r. ⚠️ Safari must have Allow Unsigned Extensions enabled.

The extension is active until the next restart of your browser.

Publishing

• Chrome: Users that are member of the Google group gitpod-browser-extension are allowed to update new versions in the Chrome Webstore Developer Dashboard.
• Firefox: Login at https://addons.mozilla.org/ with user info@gitpod.io.
