‘’’ Obtain a list of all tabs, and which URL is open Obtain a list of all firefox windows and which tab is in each and in what order Obtain a list of firefox running instances Actions on tabs Close a tab Open a new tab and enter URL move a tab in a window’s tab order move a tab to another window mute/unmute a tab make a tab hidden or unhide pin/unpin a tab select/unselect a tab discard a tab reload a tab copy tab body or a specific xpath run a javascript cmdlet, (bookmarklet ? ) Run a function of a script in somethingmonkey bookmarks list all bookmarks folder and bookmarks move a bookmark to another folder delete a bookmark create a bookmark get/change position of a firefox window close a window/ open a new window list installed addons turn an addon on or off ‘’’
I would love to be able to write script, from outside firefox, and do these actions
I have found about the remote debugger, but I can’t figure out if it’s only for debugging firefox on android via adb ? Or can I use that directly from a script ?
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox_OS/Remote_Control
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/CommandLineOptions
devtools.debugger.remote-enabled -start-debugger-server ?
Is any of this possible ?
thanks !
