Firefox 3.6+ and Extension Installation Files

Here are the command and xml files listed for use by Firefox#Firefox_3.6_Series_Extension_Templates. The idea comes from [[1] Mozilla Forum Discussion] and the files are adapted from [[2] install_extensions.cmd]. New: clean-extensions.cmd is needed for removing older versions of the same extension, too.

Be sure to 

* put 7zip into packages\mozilla\7-Zip\
* adjust the local path (here: C:\NETINST) if needed
* have the right directory tree

My structure for mozilla installations: 

packages
packages/mozilla/
packages/mozilla/fx_extensions
packages/mozilla/fx_profile
packages/mozilla/tb_extensions
packages/mozilla/7-zip

packages/mozilla/install-extensions.cmd

:: Mozilla extension installation demo script for Firefox and Thunderbird versions
:: based on Gecko 1.9+ from which the -install-global-extension command line option
:: has been removed. This script must be run from a Windows account with local
:: administrative rights. The extensions it installs can be run immediately by
:: limited users.
::
:: Stephen Thomas <flabdablet (at) gmail.com> 31-Jan-2010
::
:: This is free software. Do whatever you want with it except hold me accountable
:: for the grief it will undoubtedly cause you. If you improve it, I'd like to hear
:: from you.

:: Install a Mozilla extension XPI package into a system-wide folder, and add
:: the registry key required to tell the Mozilla app it's there.
::
:: Uses the same root folder for all packages regardless of whether they are
:: intended for Firefox or Thunderbird; this allows both apps to share disk space
:: for any extensions they have in common.
::
:: If there's already a folder in "%ProgramFiles%\Mozilla %appname%\extensions"
:: named for the ID of the extension being installed, or if the registry key
:: already exists and points to a different folder from the new one, the old
:: folders are deleted before the registry key is updated.
::
:: Parameters:
::
:: %1:	app name (Firefox or Thunderbird)
:: %2:	XPI package name, without trailing .xpi; also used to name the
::	installation folder.
::
:: Returns errorlevel 0 if installation worked, 1 if not.
::
:: Uses a totally unsound hack to extract the package ID from its install.rdf
:: file; will break horribly if the first <em:id> XML tag encountered does not
:: belong to the package ID, or if <em:id>package-id</em:id> is not all on
:: one line. If you'd rather use a proper XML parser instead, be my guest. If
:: it's really easy to do, let me know.

packages/firefox-ext-skel.xml

Skeleton file for adding new extension by copying "firefox-ext-skel.xml to "firefox-ext-(name).xml". 

<!DOCTYPE firefoxextension [ <!ENTITY ext-name "XX"> <!ENTITY ext-key "XX-00"> <!ENTITY ff-extension SYSTEM "../templates/ff-extension.xml"> ]>
<packages>&ff-extension;</packages>

Change "XX" to name of extension, "XX-00" to extension key of the file.

Example: screengrab-0.96.3-fx.xpi 

* XX    -> screengrab  
* XX-00 -> 0.96.3-fx

packages/firefox36.xml

An additional "firefox check" package is used as dependancy in the extension template, as extensions do not depend from a certain firefox version and therefor need not to be removed when doing a upgrade later to the next firefox generation.

Remarks

There are reported problems (bugs ?) using quoted strings within cmd files. Egfor %zip% . You may have to replace 

set zip="%SOFTWARE%\packages\mozilla\7-Zip\7z.exe"
with 
set zip=%SOFTWARE%\packages\mozilla\7-Zip\7z.exe
in both install-extensions.cmd and remove-extensions.cmd.

For Windows non-specialists, it's possible to hunt bugs/problems redirecting cmd file output to a log file. Replace >NUL in the template file to some >> %SYSTEMDRIVE%\myplace\myfile.txt (for example).
