menus.removeAll()

Removes all menu items added by the extension.

For compatibility with other browsers, Firefox makes this method available via the contextMenus namespace as well as the menus namespace.

This is an asynchronous function that returns a Promise.

Syntax

var removing = browser.menus.removeAll()

Parameters

None.

Return value

A Promise that will be fulfilled with no arguments when all items have been removed.

Browser compatibility

BCD tables only load in the browser

Examples

This example adds two menu items. When the user clicks the item labeled "Remove all!", the extension removes both items using removeAll().

function onRemoved() {
  console.log("items removed successfully");
}

browser.menus.create({
  id: "click-me",
  title: "Click me!",
  contexts: ["all"]
});

browser.menus.create({
  id: "remove-all",
  title: "Remove all!",
  contexts: ["all"]
});

browser.menus.onClicked.addListener(function(info, tab) {
  if (info.menuItemId == "remove-all") {
    var removing = browser.menus.removeAll();
    removing.then(onRemoved);
  }
});
