#176 - Safari support

KirillZinchenko commented on Apr 13, 2023

Hi,

Currently many of macOS users are starting to use Safari as their main browser (because of Big Sur optimizations, especially for M1 Macbooks).

Any plans to port Jira Assistant to Safari?

shridhar-tl commented on Jun 07, 2022

I don't see a straight forward / easy way to port the extension to safari. It involves additional dev work as well for making it work with Safari. Hence as of now no plans in porting it to safari.

If anyone is interested in contributing your time for porting it to safari, please feel free to raise a PR with the required changes and in future I can continue to upgrade it.

Thank you for your suggestion.

I would like to re-start the need for a Jira Assistant for Safari. Many thanks Thomas-iMac

Hi, I'm a windows user and I do not have any MAC machines. For building package for Safari, it becomes necessary to have a MAC machine with xCode installed.

Hence I would need support from other MAC users to build the package. If someone is ready to volunteer, please contact me through mail. Until then, this issue is blocked and I would not be able to proceed with it.

As I don't see any volunteer's, I am closing this issue for now. Let me look into the feasibility later at some point.

Latest updates

27-Nov-2023 - Change in permissions for JA

In upcoming version (v2.58) of JA, by default, permission to access Cloud instance of Jira would be added. This would let the users to integrate with Cloud instance of Jira without prompting for permission at the time of integration. Hence for Chrome users, once the extension gets updated, it would get disabled due to change in permission. You can enable it again from Extensions page. However, for Firefox and Edge, extension already have access to all the sites (though it doesn't really need) which would be narrowed down only to atlassian.net which would be a security improvement.

03-Jan-2023 - Auto update would take time
