I am new to native messaging. I am trying to start my calculator app from google extension. I downloaded an example from google's document. The example works fine. It starts some python based host app. When I change the path in the host's json file, I am getting an error :
"Failed to connect: Specified native messaging host not found."
This is my native's hosts manifest json
{
"name": "com.google.chrome.example.echo",
"description": "Chrome Native Messaging API Example Host",
"path": "/Users/anand-4379/Applications/Calculator.app“,
"type": "stdio",
"allowed_origins": [
"chrome-extension://knldjmfmopnpolahpmmgbagdohdnhkik/"
]
}
Initially, I was having trouble running the example I downloaded from the documentation. It worked after I did this.
