Setup (on OS X)
  • First, install jq if you don't have it
  • Then do the following from the terminal:
$ git clone https://github.com/dhowe/AdNauseam.git
$ git clone https://github.com/dhowe/uAssets.git
$ cd AdNauseam
For Chromium / Opera:
  1. Build the extension (via the terminal) $ tools/make-chromium.sh or $ tools/make-opera.sh

  2. Open the browser and go to settings, with URL chrome://extensions/

  3. Enable Developer mode in the settings page and load extension from /bin/build/adnauseam.chromium or /bin/build/adnauseam.opera

  4. To view console messages, go to chrome://extensions/, and select 'background.html' under the AdNauseam entry

For Firefox:

Note: as of Firefox 48, Developer or Nightly builds are required for development

  1. Open Firefox with the profile you intend to use, then go to about:config, then set xpinstall.signatures.required to false (Make sure that you open the profile manually rather than open it through $ tools/run-ff.sh. Nothing is saved in profiles opened through jpm. )

  2. Make sure you have jpm installed

  3. In terminal: $ tools/run-ff.sh

  4. (Optional) To use a Firefox profile other than the default, pass the profile path to run-ff.sh:

    $ tools/run-ff.sh /path/to/profile

  5. To view console messages, select the Tools->Web Developer->Browser Console menu option
