gmail.js: api.tools.parse_actions doesn't work with new gmail interface

I noticed that observer doesn’t work with new GMail interface. I added some console.log and noticed that responses are in format, different from expected in api.tools.parse_actions. Could somebody fix that? I tried to decode Gmail responses myself, but with no result, they are very ugly and unreadable

New Gmail not being fully supported? It is known.

New Gmail breaks quite a lot of things. Fully supporting new Gmail is a ongoing effort.

Some code has already been committed and release in 0.7.0 to ensure a minimal amount of compatibility (like not crashing).

Right now event-observers are on top of my priority-list too, since that’s the only remaining thing broken in my extension (after the other updates I’ve applied).

Hopefully more fixes and commits will come as we reverse engineer some of the new XHR formats used.

If you find some other things you depend on not working, I advice you to try to resolve the issue yourself, and submit PRs to get your patches mainlined.

Hi, Can you post a link for the 0.7.1 package release please ? I can’t find it in the code branches, i found only 0.6.4

We don’t really tag releases in source-code. If you need a specific version, check for when we bump-versions (post release) in package.json.

Currently, as of right now, 0.7.1 is git master.

Some new commits have been added and a new package released (0.7.1).

Notable changes:

  • preliminary code for parsing new XHR-format added.
  • less crashing/errors in XHR interceptor
  • send_message event should now trigger.
