To send a message from one content
To send a message from one content script UI to another in a browser extension using Plasmo, you can utilize the Plasmo Messaging API. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this:
1. Import the necessary functions from the
@plasmohq/messaging
library in both content script UI files:
2. In the sending content script UI file, use the sendToContentScript
function to send a message to the receiving content script UI:
3. In the receiving content script UI file, create a message handler to listen for the incoming message:
4. Make sure both content script UI files are injected into the desired web pages by specifying them in the content_scripts
section of your manifest.json
file:
5. When the sending content script UI wants to send a message, call the sendMessage
function:
6. The receiving content script UI will then log the received message in the console:
By following these steps, you can successfully send a message from one content script UI to another in your browser extension using Plasmo's Messaging API.Joshua Perk•317d ago

onMessage
is not a function of @plasmohq/messaging. How do I listen for a message in a content script?Pallas•317d ago
To listen for a message in a content script using the
@plasmohq/messaging
library, you need to use the relayMessage
function instead of the onMessage
function. Here's how you can do it:
1. Import the relayMessage
function from the @plasmohq/messaging
library in your content script file:
2. Use the relayMessage
function to listen for messages in your content script. The relayMessage
function takes a message name and a callback function as parameters. The callback function will be called whenever a message with the specified name is received:
In the above example, the content script is listening for messages with the name "ping". Whenever a message with the name "ping" is received, the callback function will be called, and the received message will be logged to the console.
3. Make sure to include the content script file in your extension's manifest file. For example, if your content script file is named "content.js", you can include it in the manifest file like this:
In the above example, the content script is set to run on web pages that match the URL pattern "http://www.example.com/*".
By following these steps, you should be able to listen for messages in your content script using the @plasmohq/messaging
library. Remember to adjust the message name and URL pattern according to your specific use case.2.1KMembers
