#Zip Packaging

After build, Addfox automatically packages the output directory into a zip file for distribution.

#Default Behavior

pnpm

npm

yarn

bun

pnpm build

npm run build

yarn build

bun run build

After build completes:

#Configuration

#Disable Packaging

// addfox.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
  zip: false,
});

#Enable Packaging (Default)

// addfox.config.ts
export default defineConfig({
  zip: true,
});

Or omit configuration (uses default).

#Package Contents

The zip file contains all build output:

• manifest.json — Extension manifest
• background/ — Background scripts
• content/ — Content scripts
• popup/ — Popup page
• options/ — Options page
• Other entries
• Static assets from public/ (icons, i18n files, etc.)

#Usage

Packaged zip files can be used for:

#Chrome Web Store Submission

1. Visit Chrome Web Store Developer Dashboard
2. Create or select a project
3. Upload extension.zip

#Firefox Add-ons Submission

1. Visit Firefox Add-ons Developer Hub
2. Submit new add-on

#Internal Distribution

#Output Path

Package file output path:

Default: .addfox/extension.zip

After modifying outDir:

  outDir: "dist",
});
// Output: .addfox/dist.zip
