[SOLVED] Bootstrapped extension with new jpm Firefox

Bootstrapped extension with new jpm Firefox

I'm realizing a Firefox extension using one of the last (or the last) version of jpm (1.0.5) but the extension does not call the startup() or shutdown() methods. I know that should be mandatory to declare the extension as

<em:bootstrap>true</em:bootstrap>

into the install.rdf file, but when I have created my namespace (using jpm init) there was not this file, that it is replaced from package.json. In this case how I should modify the files to use startup and shutdown methods working?

Solution

In my main.js I listen for load and unload like this.

exports.main = function(options, callbacks) {
    if (options.loadReason == "install" || options.loadReason == "startup") {
        factory = new Factory(AboutDualView);
        factory = new Factory(AboutEPFViewer);
        registerRemotePages();
    }
}

exports.onUnload = function (reason) {
    if (reason == "shutdown") {
        factory.unregister();
        RemotePageManager.removeRemotePageListener("about:dualview");
        RemotePageManager.removeRemotePageListener("about:epfviewer");
    }
};

function registerRemotePages(){
    let DualViewmanager = new RemotePages("about:dualview");
    let EPFViewmanager = new RemotePages("about:epfviewer");
}
