Jetpack: View-source Slidebar from the future

Mozila, Tech with tags: Add comments

It was cool to see the second release of Jetpack with its storage, slidebars, and time travel from the .future().

I quickly hacked up a trivial slidebar that lets me mouse to see the source of the current tab, and click on it to have it stick around. All in a few lines of code that use the new future API, slideBar, and tabs:

jetpack.future.import("slideBar");
 
jetpack.slideBar.append({
  url: "view-source:" + jetpack.tabs.focused.url,
  width: 500,
  onSelect: function(slide) slide({ size: 500 }),
  onReady: function(slide) $(slide.doc).click(function() {
    slide({ size: 500, persist: true });
  })
});

    I think that synatx is incorrect. It should be :
    jetpack.delaureane.future.import(”slideBar”);
    ;-)

    Hot. Even hotter would be one that lets you do live edits of the page. Basically would become a funky little instant developer tool, playing with the source to see what happens.

    This is the first jetpack I’ve seen that’s actually useful. Could you package it up so that it can be installed without having to use the develop tab of about:jetpack.
