A fork of View-Image-Info-Chrome extension

logo

Major changes:

  • google analytics is removed
  • video info is also shown
  • info is shown inside the page instead of a new window
  • background script runs only on demand when the extension's menu item is selected in the menu
  • content script runs only on demand when showing the info, and tries to find the clicked element retroactively

Minor changes:

  • added an automatic dark theme via prefers-color-scheme
  • rewritten in modern JavaScript syntax
  • network request for the info is now a pure HEAD query
  • almost all visible text was slightly reworded
  • the UI was slightly restyled
  • the icon was redrawn using a shutter image by Freepik as a base

Permissions:

  • contextMenus - to add the context menu, duh
  • <all_urls> - to get the file size and type of the image

How to limit the site permissions

Chrome allows you to easily limit the extension so it can access only a few sites:

  1. right-click the extension icon in the toolbar (or browser menu) and click "Manage" - it'll open chrome://extensions details page for this extension
  2. click "On specific sites"
  3. enter the URL you want to allow
  4. to add more sites click "Add a new page"
