Undefined function gapi.client.setApiKey in Safari

[Igor Cherepanov]

Hello! I'm trying to use the sample code from AuthSample in the Safari extension

I've got this function along with other code from the sample, and the part that loads the library.

 function handleClientLoad() {

          safari.extension.globalPage.contentWindow.console.log(gapi);

        gapi.client.setApiKey(apiKey);

        checkAuth();

      }

 <script src="https://apis.google.com/js/client.js?onload=handleClientLoad"></script>

This is what i get once the lib is loaded - and there's no client or auth in the gapi object. 

[Log] Object (popover.html, line 29)

_: Object

config: Object

load: function (a, b) {return ua(function(){return xa(a,b)});}

loaded_0: function (a) {w[x](a);I[R]=null;}

loaded_1: null

__proto__: Object

Cause of that I get an error about undefined functions. handleClientLoad never called manually, so i guess it means that it's loaded.

Am i missing something? Or is this never going to work in Safari extension?

Thank you

Same for us on chrome, 
GET https://apis.google.com/_/scs/apps-static/_/js/k=oz.gapi.en.j1QholfdnmY.O/m…1/ed=1/am=AQ/rs=AGLTcCP1BSvtxoI3E2wzG7twjHbDrCUuHA/t=zcms/cb=gapi.loaded_0  

returns 404 and the gapi.client is undefined. this is something that used to work for us and stopped working lately.

i did some digging and here's what i've found 

Upon loading client.js there's some function that checks self.window.location.href

    if ("http" !== a && "https" !== a && "chrome-extension" !== a && "file" !== a)

        throw Error("Pa");

and in my case it's safari-extension so it throws an error

it should work for the chrome though

Did anyone solve this?

We poked around and found somewhere a hardcoded condition that allows it to work only in Chrome

Also apple made Safari extensions development paid as well, so i stopped working on that for now
