FixBooking

A Chrome extension that aims to fix admin.booking.com’s session issues:

• Prevents invalidation of other tabs on login.
• Allows manually refreshing the session without logging you out.

It provides a small React/Redux interface injected into the page.

How it works

This extension only deals with session fixing (for now). It keeps the bare minimum in state.

Foreground (content.js)

• On load, detects the current session, notifies Background.
• Waits for Background session changes, updates in new sessions.
• Can also perform manual session changes, notifies Background.

Background (background.js)

• Remembers the last recieved session (the “freshest” session).
• Informs any connected tabs of session changes.

Running

Developing

Run both of these:

npx parcel watch src/js/content.js -d src/build/ -o content.js --hmr-hostname localhost
npx parcel watch src/js/background.js -d src/build/ -o background.js --hmr-hostname localhost

Then in Chrome, go to chrome://extensions and click on Load Unpacked Extension and select this folder.

Building

Run:

npm run build
