Here's how you add a message Listener with manifest v3.
chrome.runtime.onMessage.addListener( // this is the message listener
function(request, sender, sendResponse) {
if (request.message === "messageSent")
runThisFunction();
}
);
To send a message, it depends if you're sending it from the Content Script or from the background Script.
From the Content Script:
chrome.runtime.sendMessage({message: "messageSent"}, function (response) {
console.log(response);
});
From the background Script:
chrome.tabs.query({active: true, currentWindow: true}, function(tabs) {
chrome.tabs.sendMessage(tabs[0].id,
{
message: "messageSent"
}, function(response) {})
})
