## Building a Safari Browser Extension to Monitor Website Usage **Step 1: Create a New Safari App Extension** * Launch Xcode and select "Create a new Xcode project". * Choose "App Extension" from the project templates and set the following options: * Product Name: Time Tracker * Identifier: com.example.timetracker * Development Team: Your Apple Developer team **Step 2: Implement the Extension's Logic** The extension will use the `WKUserScript`. Create a new file in the "Resources" folder named `contentScript.js` and add the following code:

1
2
3
4
// Inject a script into the page
const script = document.createElement('script');
script.src = safari.extension.baseURI + 'injectscript.js';
(document.head || document.documentElement).appendChild(script);
Create `injectscript.js` in the "Resources" folder:

// Keep track of the time spent on the current website
let startTime = new Date();

// Send an update when the website changes
window.addEventListener('pageshow', () => {
  safari.extension.dispatchMessage('updateData', {
    website: window.location.hostname,
    startTime: startTime
  });

  // Reset the start time for the new website
  startTime = new Date();
});
Create a function to receive messages from the content script in the `main.js` file of the extension:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
safari.application.addEventListener('message', (e) => {
  if (e.name === 'updateData') {
    const { website, startTime } = e.message;

    // Logic to process the website and time spent
    // Store the data in a persistent store (e.g. Core Data, UserDefaults)
  }
});
**Step 3: Create the User Interface** The user interface will be a popover that displays the usage statistics. Create a storyboard file ("New File" -> "Other" -> "Storyboard") and add a view controller. Set the scene's storyboard ID to "UsageViewController". Design the UI in the storyboard with a table view to display the website usage. **Step 4: Display the Usage Statistics** In the view controller's class file, fetch the usage data from the persistent store and populate the table view.
1

3
4
5
6
- (void)viewDidLoad {
  [super viewDidLoad];

  // Fetch the usage data from the persistent store
  // Populate the table view with the data
}
**Step 5: Show the Popover** Add a button to the Safari toolbar and an action method to display the popover.

- (void)showUsage {
  // Create the popover
  NSPopover *popover = [[NSPopover alloc] init];
  popover.contentViewController = [self.storyboard instantiateControllerWithIdentifier:@"UsageViewController"];

  // Show the popover
  [popover showRelativeToRect:self.toolbarButton.bounds ofView:self.toolbarButton preferredEdge:NSRectEdgeMinY];
}
**Step 6: Test and Distribute** * Build and run the extension in Safari. * Verify that it's tracking website usage correctly. * Distribute the extension through the App Store or TestFlight if desired. **Additional Tips:** * Use asynchronous storage operations to avoid blocking the web page. * Handle data protection regulations by encrypting sensitive data. * Provide options for users to customize the tracking behavior.

## Building a Safari Browser Extension for Time Tracking **Introduction:** Browser extensions are small software programs that can enhance the functionality of your web browser. Safari extensions, specifically, allow you to customize and extend the capabilities of Safari on macOS devices. In this guide, we will create a Safari browser extension that monitors how much time you spend on different websites. ### Step 1: Set Up the Project - Create a new Xcode project. - Select "Safari Extension" as the project template. - Name the project appropriately, such as "TimeTrackerExtension." ### Step 2: Create the Content Script - Right-click on your project folder and select "New File..." - Choose "Swift File" and name it "ContentScript.swift." - This script will run on every website you visit and track the time spent. #### Content of ContentScript.swift:

import SafariServices

var startTime: Date?

func messageHandler(message: WKScriptMessage) {
    if let data = message.body as? [String: Any], let action = data["action"] as? String {
        switch action {
            case "start":
                startTime = Date()
            case "stop":
                if let startTime = startTime {
                    let elapsedTime = Date().timeIntervalSince(startTime)
                    let website = message.name // Name of the website
                    // Send the elapsed time and website to the extension script
                    let response: [String: Any] = ["elapsedTime": elapsedTime, "website": website]
                    message.webView?.userContentController.postMessage(response, to: extensionScheme)
                }
            default:
                break
        }
    }
}

// Register the message listener
SFSafariExtensionJavaScriptContext.shared().addScriptMessageHandler(NamedScriptMessageHandler(name: "timeTracker", scriptMessageDelegate: messageHandler))
### Step 3: Create the Extension Script - In your project folder, right-click and select "New File..." - Choose "Swift File" and name it "ExtensionScript.swift." - This script will run within the extension's background page and handle the data sent from the content script. #### Content of ExtensionScript.swift:

import SafariServices

var totalTimes: [String: Double] = [:] // Stores total time spent on each website

func handleContentScriptMessage(message: SFSafariMessage) {
    if let data = message.messageBody as? [String: Any], let elapsedTime = data["elapsedTime"] as? Double, let website = data["website"] as? String {
        totalTimes[website, default: 0] += elapsedTime
        // Update the UI of the extension to display the time spent
        // ...
        // Send information for dashboard to backend here
    }
}

// Listen to messages from the content script
SFSafariExtension.extensionContext?.addEventListener(of: .contentScriptMessage, listener: handleContentScriptMessage)
### Step 4: Update the Extension's manifest.json - In the root of your project folder, open "manifest.json." - Add the following lines to enable content scripts and allow cross-origin communication:
1
2
3
4
5
6

9
"permissions": ["activeTab"],
"content_scripts": [
    {
        "matches": ["<all_urls>"],
        "js": ["ContentScript.swift"],
        "css": [],
        "all_frames": true
    }
]
### Step 5: Build and Test the Extension - Build your extension by clicking "Build" in Xcode. - Open Safari and go to Safari > Preferences > Extensions. - Enable your extension and refresh any open websites. - Visit different websites and monitor the time spent in the extension's interface. ### Step 6: Sending Data to a Backend (Optional) If you want to send the collected time tracking data to a backend server, you can use `SFSafariExtension.callbackExtension` to create a content script that sends the data using REST API calls or other backend communication methods. ### Deployment Once your extension is complete, you can export it as a .safariextension file and share it with others. **Additional Notes:** * You can customize the UI of the extension by creating an "Extension View" in Xcode. * You can improve the accuracy of the time tracking by using methods like the "Battery API" to detect when the user is away from the device. * Consider privacy implications and provide users with transparent control over the data collection.

## Building a Safari Browser Extension to Monitor Website Usage ### 1. Create a New Xcode Project * Open Xcode and select "New Project". * Choose **Safari Extension** as the template. * Enter a name for your extension (e.g., "WebsiteUsageTracker") and click "Create". ### 2. Design the Extension Interface * In the "Main Interface" storyboard, create a window or popover that will display the usage data. * Add labels to display the website name, time spent, and other relevant information. ### 3. Handle Website Events * In the `ExtensionViewController` class, implement the `safari:didLoadForMainFrame` method to listen for website load events. * When a website loads, store its URL and start a timer to track the time spent.

func safari:didLoadForMainFrame(notification: NSNotification) {
    guard let url = notification.userInfo?["url"] as? URL else { return }
    currentWebsite = url
    startTime = Date()
}
### 4. Update Usage Data * In the `safari:willNavigateToNewPage` method, calculate the time spent on the current website and update the usage data.

func safari:willNavigateToNewPage(notification: NSNotification) {
    guard let url = currentWebsite else { return }
    let timeSpent = Date().timeIntervalSince(startTime)
    websiteUsage[url] = timeSpent
}
### 5. Persist the Data * Implement the `safari:willSave` method to save the usage data to disk when the browser quits. * Use the `UserDefaults` or `FileHandle` APIs for data persistence.
1
2
3
func safari:willSave(notification: NSNotification) {
    // Save websiteUsage to disk here
}
### 6. Create a Menu Bar Icon * Add a menu bar icon to your extension in the "Info.plist" file:
1
2
3
4
5
<key>SafariExtensionType</key>
<array>
    <string>SafariExtensionMain</string>
    <string>SafariExtensionWithHighPriorityToolbarItem</string>
</array>
* Create a toolbar item with an image and click handler. ### 7. Display the Usage Data * In the click handler for the menu bar icon, present the window or popover containing the usage data. * Format the data in a human-readable way. ### 8. Clean Up and Release * In the `safari:didUnloadForMainFrame` method, stop the timer and reset the current website. * Override the `dealloc` method to release any resources. ## Usage * Install the extension in Safari from the Safari Extension Gallery. * Visit websites as usual. * Click on the menu bar icon to view your website usage history. ## Additional Considerations * **Privacy:** Ensure that you clearly inform users about what website data is being tracked and how it is used. * **Performance:** Minimize the impact of your extension on browser performance. * **Updates:** Keep your extension up to date with the latest Safari releases. * **Documentation:** Refer to Apple's [Safari Extensions Documentation](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/safariextensions) for more details.
