PWPush Chrome Extension

Overview

PWPush Chrome Extension is a tool that enables users to easily send selected text, URLs, or files to PWPush, a service for sharing passwords or sensitive information securely. With just a right-click or via the extension popup, users can generate PWPush links and share them securely. All content is encrypted, and links expire after the specified number of days or views.

Features

• Context Menu Integration: Right-click to push any highlighted text directly to PWPush.
• Clipboard Integration: Automatically copy generated PWPush links to your clipboard.
• Optional Settings: Set expiration days, view limits, passphrases, and other options to ensure privacy and control.
• User-Friendly UI: Easy-to-use popup UI for quick sharing with optional settings.
• Custom Notification: Get a notification when a link is successfully copied to the clipboard.

PWPush API Integration

This extension integrates with the PWPush API to securely push the selected text, URLs, or file data.

API Details:

• The content is encrypted before it is stored in PWPush.
• The expiration days and views are configurable through the extension.
• PWPush supports additional parameters such as passphrases, notes, retrieval steps, and more.

Sample API Request:

fetch("https://pwpush.com/p.json", {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: { "Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" },
    body: urlencoded.toString(),
});

Permissions

The extension requires the following permissions:

• contextMenus: To add the right-click option.
• activeTab: To access and interact with the current tab.
• scripting: To inject scripts that handle the clipboard functionality.
• clipboardWrite: To allow automatic copying to the clipboard.
• notifications: To provide notifications when actions complete.

Known Issues

• The extension cannot generate PWPush links on chrome:// or other internal Chrome pages due to security restrictions.
• CORS issues may occur if the API endpoint changes or if PWPush modifies its settings. Ensure proper permissions are set.

Future Enhancements

• Support for One-Time Secret: Implement an alternative service for added flexibility.
• Improved Error Handling: Better user feedback for network issues or errors in API requests.
• Custom Styling Options: Allow users to customize the appearance of the extension UI.
