pack [OPTION...] [SOURCE-DIRECTORY]
Creates an extension bundle that is suitable for publishing.
The bundle will always include the required files extension.js and metadata.json, as well as any of
the optional stylesheet.css, stylesheet-dark.css, stylesheet-light.css or prefs.js if found. Each
additional source that should be included must be specified with --extra-source.
If the extension includes one or more GSettings schemas, they can either be placed in a schemas/
folder to be picked up automatically, or be specified with --schema.
Similarily, translations are included automatically when they are located in a po/ folder, otherwise
the --podir option can be used to point to the correct directory. If no gettext domain is provided on
the command line, the value of the gettext-domain metadata field is used if it exists, and the
extension UUID if not.
All files are searched in SOURCE-DIRECTORY if specified, or the current directory otherwise.
Options--extra-source=FILE
Additional source to include in the bundle
--schema=SCHEMA
A GSettings schema that should be included

install [OPTION...] PACK
Installs an extension from the bundle PACK.
The command unpacks the extension files and moves them to the expected location in the user's $HOME,
so that it will be loaded in the next session.
It is mainly intended for testing, not as a replacement for the extension website. As extensions have
privileged access to the user's session, it is advised to never load extensions from untrusted sources
without carefully reviewing their content.
Options--force
Override an existing extension
uninstallUUID
Uninstalls the extension identified by UUID.
