Chrome Extension - Content Security Policy - executing inline code

Question

I am using an external JavaScript lib in my chrome extension. I has inline execution, so I get following kind of error

(The error I get on console)

Answer 1

You have something in your code like this:

 Show password

In a nutshell this is not allowed in chrome apps and extensions.

Change this to the following and it will work:

html:

 Show password

script.js:

document.getElementById("myButton").addEventListener("click", myFunction); function myFunction(){ console.log('asd'); }

Long story:

In chrome apps, Content Security Policy does not allow inline javascript. So you have to put your javascript in a .js file and include it in your HTML.
