javascript - Chrome Web Store Payments Free trial for Extension - Stack Overflow

文章数量:1415664

I'm trying to convert my Google Chrome Extension, which is published in the Chrome Web Store, into a Free Trial using their new Licensing API - however Googles docs for this are excruciatingly confusing to me. See:

Furthermore, it seems that OpenID 2.0 is deprecated?

Is there some sort of drop-in code to setup a Free Trial and check the user against the Licensing API? I have a lot of users and I don't want to mess up and force them to hit a payment wall- they should be grandfathered in for free. I can't find anyone else online who has done this to look at their code and understand.

Ideally my extension should be fully functional for 7 days, and then expire the free trial and require payment from the user.

I appreciate any help here!

I found a great resource at https://github./GoogleChrome/chrome-app-samples/tree/master/samples/one-time-payment

I edited it a bit to add more error trapping as I moved it into my app. I had a lot of times where I had to go to different Google API things though and edit them. If you have trouble with this code, I will try to look up what I changed and let you know. You can copy and paste this into the console window of the background page and execute it with getLicense. If you copy your key into the manifest, you can do it with a local extension and don't have to wait an hour with every change. I highly remend that. The key is the one from the developer dashboard -more info.

function getLicense() {
  var CWS_LICENSE_API_URL = 'https://www.googleapis./chromewebstore/v1.1/userlicenses/';
  xhrWithAuth('GET', CWS_LICENSE_API_URL + chrome.runtime.id, true, onLicenseFetched);
}

function onLicenseFetched(error, status, response) {
  function extensionIconSettings(badgeColorObject, badgeText, extensionTitle ){
    chrome.browserAction.setBadgeBackgroundColor(badgeColorObject);
    chrome.browserAction.setBadgeText({text:badgeText});
    chrome.browserAction.setTitle({ title: extensionTitle });
  }
  var licenseStatus = "";
  if (status === 200 && response) {
    response = JSON.parse(response);
    licenseStatus = parseLicense(response);
  } else {
    console.log("FAILED to get license. Free trial granted.");
    licenseStatus = "unknown";
  }
  if(licenseStatus){
    if(licenseStatus === "Full"){
      window.localStorage.setItem('ChromeGuardislicensed', 'true');
      extensionIconSettings({color:[0, 0, 0, 0]}, "", "appname is enabled.");
    }else if(licenseStatus === "None"){
      //chrome.browserAction.setIcon({path: icon}); to disabled - grayed out?
      extensionIconSettings({color:[255, 0, 0, 230]}, "?", "appnameis disabled.");
      //redirect to a page about paying as well?
    }else if(licenseStatus === "Free"){
      window.localStorage.setItem('appnameislicensed', 'true');
      extensionIconSettings({color:[255, 0, 0, 0]}, "", window.localStorage.getItem('daysLeftInappnameTrial') + " days left in free trial.");
    }else if(licenseStatus === "unknown"){
      //this does mean that if they don't approve the permissions,
      //it works free forever. This might not be ideal
      //however, if the licensing server isn't working, I would prefer it to work.
      window.localStorage.setItem('appnameislicensed', 'true');
      extensionIconSettings({color:[200, 200, 0, 100]}, "?", "appnameis enabled, but was unable to check license status.");
