Continuing from previous comment...

Windows users will need to run the updated .exe to use the Chrome store version of the extension. It may ask you to uninstall the previous version first, but it will guide you.

==

Linux/Mac users will need to manually modify the org.evergreen_ils.hatch.json to use the new extension ID, specifically the allowed_origins value:

"allowed_origins": [
  "chrome-extension://ppooibdipmklfichpmkcgplfgdplgahl/"
]

In Linux+Chrome, for example, the file lives at:
 ~/.config/google-chrome/NativeMessagingHosts/org.evergreen_ils.hatch.json

See also host manifest file locations in https://developer.chrome.com/apps/nativeMessaging

Hatch work in progress is here. Will merge to master and tag after a few more users have tested.

http://git.evergreen-ils.org/?p=working/Hatch.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/user/berick/lp1708757-chrome-store-prep

Working branch also contains updated install documentation and documentation on how to update the Chrome store app.

==

We also need to wrangle the web team to carve out a spot for the Hatch executable and to live on the downloads section and ideally a spot for a help docs page which can be linked to the extension in the store.

Testing appreciated.
