How to add options.html page?

[marlonguimaraes]

There is a popup page (built by popup.tsx), what if I want to add an "Options" page?

This is an old question but, in case anyone on the web starts using this and has the same question, here's what to do.

You need to add a file named options.html to the dist/ folder, then declare that as the options_page in the manifest.json file on the same folder.

As Google's docs put it:

{
  "name": "My extension",
  ...
  "options_page": "options.html",
  ...
}

Then, you also need to add an options.tsx file to the src/ui/ folder, then edit the webpack.config.js so that the entry object includes this file:

  entry: {
    content: './src/app/content.ts',
    background: './src/app/background.ts',
    popup: './src/ui/popup.tsx',
    options: './src/ui/options.tsx',
  },

Some observations:

• You'll want to make sure your options.html file links to options.js.
• If you want a separate stylesheet for options, create it under src/styles/, then link it to the options.html and make sure the options.tsx file imports it:

import '../styles/options.css';
