Automate store upload with Continuous Integration.

So with this every update will get automatically uploaded to the webstore without you doing it ?

[jspenguin2017]

Yep, that's the goal.

Well, time to install Ruby...

[jspenguin2017]

Hum...

[jspenguin2017]

Travis plz update your doc...

OK, I got the encryption working...

[jspenguin2017]

Google's docs on how to create credential are kind of crap... They need to make it noob friendly... Took me 1h to find the correct doc...

[jspenguin2017]

The doc on obtaining OAuth token is here: https://developer.chrome.com/webstore/using_webstore_api
But steps 7 and 8 are bad, the good doc for steps 7 and 8 is here: https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2

Is it done ? I received another update to v9.9!

[jspenguin2017]

Yea I'm testing it... Not quite done yet.

[jspenguin2017]

The web store API is absolute crap, I have no way to check the current draft version...

[jspenguin2017]

And I received "OK"... Fix your docs...

[jspenguin2017]

Don't tell me I need a custom API to keep track of last build version... I'll just check published version, hopefully it'll go well.

[jspenguin2017]

Yea I guess I need to make an API server...... This is a bit more complex than I wanted... Anyway, I will manually upload updates until everything is ready.

[jspenguin2017]

It should be good now... Let me test it out...

[jspenguin2017]

Oh no, the build failed...

Eh... my server was misconfigured...

This is HARD to debug... Thankfully I only need to do it once...

[jspenguin2017]

I finally finished implementing it... That was HARD...

[jspenguin2017]

Actually the script didn't run in the last build... But I'm sure it's good now. The build script will call to my server... Hopefully that will not go down like last time...

I was planning on making the extension install page to look a bit better, but getting too much attention is not really what I want. I will probably keep the install page as-is and the extension unlisted.

Alright, time to work on a syntax highlighter!
