One of my main uses of GreaseMonkey is a simple script to override a "Java
detection" function embedded in an old device's firmware:
// ==UserScript==
// @name Fix KVM Java detection
// @namespace example.com
// @description Override Java plugin detection in APC (Avocent) IP KVMs
// @include https://kvm1.example.com/*
// @include https://kvm2.example.com/*
// @version 0.2
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==
// override the function defined in connectionslistiframe.js
function IsJavaInstalled() {
/* unconditionally return "yes":
The KVM viewer just downloads a JNLP file which is opened with Java
Web Start.
Leave having a working 'javaws' up to the user.
*/
return 1;
}
addJS_Node(IsJavaInstalled);
// http://stackoverflow.com/a/21274652
function addJS_Node (text, s_URL, funcToRun, runOnLoad) {
var D = document;
var scriptNode = D.createElement ('script');
if (runOnLoad) {
scriptNode.addEventListener ("load", runOnLoad, false);
}
scriptNode.type = "text/javascript";
if (text) scriptNode.textContent = text;
if (s_URL) scriptNode.src = s_URL;
if (funcToRun) scriptNode.textContent = '(' + funcToRun.toString() +
')()';
var targ = D.getElementsByTagName ('head')[0] || D.body || D.
documentElement;
targ.appendChild (scriptNode);
}
This script worked in GM 3.x (FF <= 56), and still works in ViolentMonkey
(FF 57, Chrome) & TamperMonkey (Chrome, Edge). It simply doesn't run in GM
4.x, and no script-related errors are logged in the console. (There is one
error generated by the function I'm attempting to override, thus I'm pretty
sure the script is not being run.)
I'm not calling any GM_* API stuff, but is there something else here that
needs changing? In an older version, I had used @grant unsafeWindow, which
I know got renamed, but I discovered @grant none worked just as well, so I
changed to that. (However, not having a @grant line at all did not work.)
Thanks,
Andrew
