Weird, looking at the manifest, I see it asks for permission for "socket": [ "tcp-connect::" ], but when I try to use that in my own app, I get the message "socket" permissions are only allowed for packaged apps.
I am quite frustrated by the confusing mix of extensions vs "legacy" apps vs "hosted" apps vs the newfangled "packaged" apps. The chrome web store is extremely confusing and the documentation is all over the place.
- Andrex 14y agoIt's not that confusing, the only confusing thing IMO is the split between hosted and packaged. I'd rather the CWS only allow packaged apps.
