TabFS for Safari

This support is a work in progress (as are these instructions).

Safari's extension support is pretty messy. You will need:

  • Xcode installed
  • Safari 14 or newer
  • macOS 10.15 Catalina or newer

Enable the Develop menu in Safari, then Develop -> Allow Unsigned Extensions.

Open the Xcode project TabFS/TabFS.xcodeproj in this directory. Run the project. It should open a TabFS app and install the extension in Safari.

Enable the extension in Safari Preferences, grant it access to all sites. It should be running now! (?)

Check the fs/mnt folder of the TabFS repo on your computer to see if it's mounted.

tips

  • To open Web inspector: Safari -> Develop menu -> Web Extension Background Pages -> TabFS.

    Refreshing this inspector should reload the tabfs filesystem, also.

  • You need to rebuild in Xcode any time you change background.js (because the extension files are copied into the extension, rather than running directly from folder as in Firefox and Chrome). This is pretty annoying.
