DEPRECATED: Refined GitHub for Safari

This project is no longer required. The original Refined GitHub is available on Mac App Store.

Install

Download latest release

Or using homebrew:

brew install --cask refined-github-safari

After this, start the app, and enable Refined Github for Safari in Safari Extensions Preferences.

Development

Before starting, git submodules should be checked out (git submodule update --init) and Node should be installed.

Then, install required dependencies with

npm install

After this, running

npm run build

will build the required JS file to "Refined GitHub Extension" directory.

Open Xcode and make these changes for both the application and extension targets:

• In General > Identity change the bundle identifier to reverse DNS format. Make sure the extension target has the -extension suffix.
• In General > Signing set your team. Xcode should take care of the provisioning profile and certificate automatically.

Then, build Refined GitHub for Safari.app with

xcodebuild

The built app will be located in build/Release.

Git attributes

For working builds while keeping the Git repository clean, there are shell scripts to help with Git attributes.

Enable this with

git config filter.xcode-project.clean bin/xcode-project-clean DEVELOPMENT_TEAM_ID BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER
git config filter.xcode-project.smudge bin/xcode-project-smudge DEVELOPMENT_TEAM_ID BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER

but replace the values with your Xcode Development Team id and bundle identifier.

Alternatives

This repository is not the first attempt to create a Safari version of Refined GitHub. There are at least two other similar projects:

• Safari wrapper by @fantattitude
• Safari fork by @mathieudutour

These are implemented as Legacy Safari Extension, and not Safari App Extensions.
