Chrome extension to enable flash plugin

[Eshwar Kokkiligadda]

I am working for a game which runs in Adobe Flash. From Chrome 69, sites using Flash will require explicit permission to run it, every time the user restarts the browser. We are expecting lot of our players will get dropped off as they need to go through click-to-play flow every time they restart the browser.(Flash Roadmap -> https://www.chromium.org/flash-roadmap)

So we came up with an idea of using chrome extension which can enable flash plugin in background for our game website. We used 'chrome.contentSettings' for creating this extension.

Can someone please confirm if there is any roadmap plan from chrome to stop controlling of 'adobe-flash-player' plugin from 'chrome.contentSettings'.

Other words pls tell me how long below api code will work ?

*var flashResIdentifier; 

    chrome.contentSettings.plugins.getResourceIdentifiers(function(resIdentifiers) {

    for (var i=0; i<resIdentifiers.length; i++) {

    if (resIdentifiers[i].id == "adobe-flash-player") {

    flashResIdentifier = resIdentifiers;

    break;

    }

    }

    });

   chrome.contentSettings.plugins.set({'primaryPattern':'https://abc.xyz.com/', 'resourceIdentifier':flashResIdentifier, 'setting':'allow'});*

it seems that ADOBE itself recognized in 2017 that they expect Flash "service life" to end in 2020, they most likely realized that from then on Flash won't be able to effectively handle the amount of data

the solution seems to be migrating content to HTML5 and companies like Google and Mozilla have provided either guides or tools to help that process

I guess it's better to anticipate the "end" of Flash and start converting

of course this comes from a user trying to find a solution for the "click-to-play" issue with flash and that has been redirected to a bunch of different articles where this kind of information has been posted, the same path that directed me here
