# trackx-magnet ![](./static/icon48.png)

A browser extension to collect error data samples for [TrackX](https://github.com/maxmilton/trackx) development.

View event reports at <https://dash.trackx.app/projects/trackx-magnet>.

### Features

- Inject [trackx client](https://github.com/maxmilton/trackx/tree/master/packages/client) into visited web pages
  - Send error report events on captured errors
  - Send a session ping (to count error-free sessions)
- Modify [CSP headers](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CSP) to allow connecting to a TrackX API
- Preserve privacy — Don't inject client or send anything when specific data matches our [curated block list](https://github.com/maxmilton/trackx-magnet/blob/master/src/blocklist.json) (phrases related to logins, banking, porn, etc.)

### TODO

- Customisable Track API URL
  - Not possible without recompiling the extension so provide good documentation about how to do that
- User maintained block list + easily add the current URL origin to it
