Adding a version of an experiment

If you'd like to add in a new version of an experiment then you need to do the following:

  1. Ensure that in the add-on the updateURL is pointing to the following address: https://web-ext-experiments.github.io/about/experiments/about.json - please see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/Updates for more on that.

  2. Add an experiment version to this respository in the experiments directory. If a directory doesn't exist for your add-on, create a new one.

  3. Run python generate.py this will generate the update.json file so that if you update your experiment, users will get the new version.

  4. Commit your version and the new update.json file. Repeat this process each time you do a new version.
