How to install the Chrome add-on from a third party site?

Question

Browser extensions

Hello.
Actually, the installation is of interest, as the guys from 2GIS did - apps.2gis.ru/#extension
The link on the "Install" button leads to the Web Store, but the installation takes place immediately on the page.

Answer 1

Answer 2

Actually HTML from the page with data-attributes.
JS that hangs a handler on a link click. Checks the browser, sends statistics to Google Analytics and triggers the installation.

$(".lng__download-btn, .lng__extensions-btn")
  .on("click", function(a){
    var c = $(this).data("type"),
    e = $(this).data("location"),
    f = $(this).data("browser");
    f ? (
      _gaq.push(["_trackEvent", c, "Download " + e, f]), !1 == /.com/.test(d) &&
      (b && "Chrome" == b || "YaBrowser" == b) &&
      (a.preventDefault(), chrome.webstore.install())
      )
    : _gaq.push(["_trackEvent",c,"Download "+e])
  })
});
