Merge pull request #360 from Turbotomate/patch-1 Add /eid-client to default no-skip-url-list in background.js
- Turbotomate (10 Jan 24)
Add /eid-client to default no-skip-url-list in background.js Added /eid-client to the default no-skip-url-list in background.js to skip redirects to the "AusweisApp" (https://github.com/Governikus/AusweisApp) which is the official eID-Client of the German government. Like mentioned in https://www.ausweisapp.bund.de/fuer-diensteanbieter/leitfaden/technische-hinweise, the redirects used are "http://127.0.0.1:24727/eID-Client" on computers or "eid://127.0.0.1:24727/eID-Client" on mobile phones. So the added parameter should work for both. Only tested with Firefox on a computer, because the addon is not available for Firefox mobile.
