MV3 Uncaught Reference Error

[Alex Eacott]

Hi,

I'm trying to upgrade our gmail integration that implements inboxSDK to MV3. I've used the boilerplate and ran npm install to get the current inboxsdk version. I merged the background.js file, and added pageWorld.js and all that is fine. However, now when I try to initialise inboxSDK, I keep hitting the error InboxSDK is not defined. Has anyone found this happening to them?

When using the InboxSDK from NPM, you need to do `import * as InboxSDK from '@inboxsdk/core';` in any file that references the InboxSDK to make the InboxSDK variable available in that file. It's no longer a global variable as before.

Hi Chris

Good to hear from you after long time, 

Is there any update on documentation planned? Also a bug tracker?
I still some typings are broken, don't know where to report :(

Cheers

Abby

As our content-script is not a module, that method will not work. I am trying to use this bit of code to load InboxSDK but keep hitting InboxSDK.load is not a function:

(async () => {

const src = chrome.runtime.getURL('pageWorld.js');

const InboxSDK = await import(src);

InboxSDK.load(...).then((sdk) => console.log('loaded'));

})();

the getURL line I have also tried with inboxsdk.js
