Summary
Think Greasemonkey for developers.
Witchcraft is a Google Chrome extension for loading custom Javascript and CSS directly from a folder in your file system, injecting them into pages that match their files names.
It works by matching every page domain against script file names available in the scripts folder. For instance, if one navigates to https://www.google.com
, Witchcraft will try to load and run google.com.js
and google.com.css
.
Witchcraft also tries all domain levels. For instance, if one accesses https://gist.github.com
, it will try to load, in this order: com.js
, github.com.js
and gist.github.com.js
... and the same for CSS. All domain levels for which a script is found will be loaded, not just the first one.
Whenever you edit or create new scripts, there's no need to reload anything other than the page where the scripts are supposed to run. This is what makes Witchcraft special and different than other popular scripting tools, like Greasemonkey or Tampermonkey.
Since Witchcraft runs as a Chrome extension, it is also cross-platform. It has been tested on Windows, MacOS and Linux.
Features:
- scripts are automatically updated after you edit them - no need to reload anything;
