NPAPI插件编程起步

 

http://geeklu.com/2010/10/getting-started-with-npapi-plugin/

 

2012-10-10 更新:https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=139816 Chrome22之后貌似完全放弃10.5 Carbon之类的支持,所以Event Model需要进行设置,否则NPAPI插件在Chrome22下无法加载。NPP_New函数中进行如此设置

    browser->setvalue(instance, 
    NPPVpluginEventModel, 
    (void *)NPEventModelCocoa);

如果想学习NPAPI方面的知识,Mozila的官方wiki无疑是一个最佳的入口,https://wiki.mozilla.org/NPAPI 
FireBreath则可以作为实践的开端,https://github.com/firebreath/FireBreath 
融会贯通后便可以尝试从零开始写自己的插件了。


最近需要写一个Mac平台上的简单的跨浏览器的插件,需要在js中调用本地方法,而npapi满足此要求。 NPAPI就是Netscape Plugin Application Programming Interface的缩写了,虽然Netscape已经去了,但是这个却被沿用下来,在各大浏览器中都得以实现。还是纪念下曾经的浏览器的鼻祖啊。

在网络上搜索了很长时间,一直没有找到合适的满足自己需求的代码例子。且这方面的文档也少的可怜。 还是先提一下,有两个系列的文章还是不错,虽然或许可能也不完全正确,但是帮助理解npapi的编程模型是非常有帮助的:

下面是我寻找解决方法的过程 一开始找到mozilla的一篇官方文档:Writing a plugin for Mac OS X,这里面提到了了官方的代码库中有demo,于是就跑到公司checkout下mozilla的分支。并看了下里面的一个mac的例子. 不过这个例子没有使用npruntime的东西,加上一开始的时候对npapi不熟悉,就继续搜索. 在google, *,github, google codes 中不停的搜索,结果甚少,最后找到一个npruntime的例子,Call Native API from Google Chrome Extension on Mac OS X只可惜编译后只能在mac的chrome下运行。 后来又找到了Firebreath这个跨平台的浏览器NPAPI插件开发框架,可以通过python和cmake的配合,生成适合不同操作系统的浏览器插件的工程,于是就测试了,果真生成xcode项目后,编译,然后测试了下js调用插件的方法,还真能在各个浏览器(测试了三个比较常用的safari,chrome,firefox)下运行。但是无奈由于包含一些高级的程序代码其最小编译后的大小都2m+对于一个功能单一的插件来讲,无疑是让人无法接受的,所以继续找demo. 后来找到了npsimple-win32 这个windows下的vs的项目,我将其移植到mac上,编译运行后,唯独在safari下无法运行,悲剧的一塌糊涂,对于一个npapi不同的浏览器在实现的具体细节上竟然有细微的差别,真是太变态鸟。 最后无奈之下,将Weikit开源项目中的例子弄出来,然后和npruntime的相关代码进行整合,发现在safari,chrome可以运行在firefox中没法运行,好吧,至少现在两个例子的并集是完整的,我就将两个代码进行查看,最终找出了问题的所在,在safari下需要启动CoreGraphics,而在firefox下scriptable的NPObject的hasProperty和getProperty必须设置,可能在firefox下调用某函数,先去scriptable NPObject中找有没有这个名字的属性,然后在找方法吧。 最后终于写出了一个简单的例子
