HTTPS Everywhere - A Browser Extension That Encrypts Your Communications With Many Websites That Offer HTTPS But Still Allow Unencrypted Connections

A browser extension that encrypts your communications with many websites that offer HTTPS but still allow unencrypted connections.

Getting Started
Get the packages you need and install a git hook to run tests before push:

bash install-dev-dependencies.sh

Run the ruleset validations and browser tests:

bash test.sh

Run the latest code and rulesets in a standalone Firefox profile:

bash test/firefox.sh --justrun

Run the latest code and rulesets in a standalone profile for a specific version of Firefox:

FIREFOX=/path/to/firefox bash test/firefox.sh --justrun

Run the latest code and rulesets in a standalone Chromium profile:

bash test/chromium.sh --justrun

Run the latest code and rulesets in a standalone Tor Browser profile:

bash test/tor-browser.sh path_to_tor_browser.tar.xz

Build the Firefox (.xpi) & Chromium (.crx) extensions:

bash make.sh

Both of the build commands store their output under pkg/.

Precommit Testing
One can run the available test suites automatically by enabling the precommit hook provided with:

ln -s ../../hooks/precommit .git/hooks/pre-commit
