I saw this question: How do I auto-reload a Chrome extension I'm developing?
But I didn't find anything useful there. I tried to get something working bu I don't like it very much. There must be some other way by now, it has been 2 years since initial question was asked.
So, is there any application or extension that would allow me to reload extension on file change?
You could try Tincr. It allows you to edit/save the code directly in browser and auto-reload on changes.
You can use "Extensions Reloader" for Chrome:
Reload all unpacked extensions using the extension's toolbar button or by browsing to "http://reload.extensions"
If you've ever developed a Chrome extension, you might have wanted to automate the process of reloading your unpacked extension without the need of going through the extensions page.
"Extensions Reloader" allows you to reload all unpacked extensions
using 2 ways: 1 - The extension's toolbar button. 2 - Browsing to "http://reload.extensions".
The toolbar icon will reload unpacked extensions using a single click.
The "reload by browsing" is intended for automating the reload process using "post build" scripts - just add a browse to "http://reload.extensions" using Chrome to your script, and you'll have a refreshed Chrome window.
