Re: [Help-librejs] Running librejs tests without a browser

[zach wick]

Hello David,

There is not currently a way to use LibreJS as a command line tool to test a URL's licensing of its JS.

As you asked, the only way to currently use LibreJS is as a browser extension.

We are currently reworking LibreJS to make use of the WebExtensions APIs which will replace the the legacy XUL APIs in Mozilla Firefox, and then by extension GNU Icecat.

I'm just about to publish something about something around this to the news feed on Savannah for LibreJS [0], so you'll be able to read more there in a few minutes.

Hello,

I'm interested in automating LibreJS testing. Is there currently
(Oct/Nov 2017) a mechanism for doing this - for example, a command line
tool - or is the only way to run LibreJS as a browser add-on?

Regards,
David

P.S. I heard that LibreJS is currently being redesigned (or something
like that). If this is the case, is there a link where I can read about
and follow this process? (I couldn't find one, so maybe I
misunderstood.)
