Quickstart

Prebuilt releases include a ZIP of the compiled extension (contents of dist/). Read below if you want to build from source.

To install from a release:

1. Download and unzip the release ZIP.
2. Open chrome://extensions in your browser -> enable Developer mode -> click Load unpacked -> select the unzipped release folder.

After installation:

1. Open the Extensions menu of your browser (puzzle-piece icon) and pin "Norish Quick Import" to the extensions toolbar.
2. Go the the account settings of your Norish instance.
3. Create a new API key and copy it to your clipboard.
4. Click the extension icon in the extensions toolbar of your browser to open the Norish Quick Import popup.
5. Fill out the domain of your Norish instance and paste your API key.
6. Click Save Settings.
7. Your browser will ask you, if you want to allow Norish Quick Import to access your configured Instance Domain. Click Allow.

After setting up the Extension you can just browse the internet and whenever you find a recipe, that's worth saving into Norish, just click the extension icon and hit send-Button.

Update & Reload

A short guide to update or reload the extension without losing your settings.

• If you're using the Release ZIP / Load unpacked workflow: unzip the new release into the same folder you originally loaded (overwrite files), then open chrome://extensions and click the Reload button for "Norish Quick Import". Reloading preserves storage for the same installed extension ID.
• If you remove and re-add the extension or load from a different folder: the browser may assign a new extension ID and stored sttings may not carry over.

Tip

If you encounter any problem or have a question, feel free to create an issue.

Privacy

Data handling:

• Stored locally (Chrome sync storage): your Norish domain and API key.
• Stored locally (Chrome local storage): the latest import status shown in the popup.
• Sent to your configured Norish instance during import: recipe URL and API key.
• Not sent: analytics, tracking data, or data to third-party services.

Permissions

The extension currently requests:

• storage: stores your Norish domain/API key and the latest import status.
• tabs: reads the active tab URL so the recipe URL field can be prefilled.
• optional_host_permissions (http://*/*, https://*/*): when you save settings, the extension requests access only for your configured Norish domain.
