I'm attempting to reload a Safari Content Blocker from within a sandboxed command-line tool configured as a LaunchAgent. However, when I use SFContentBlockerManager to reload the content blocker, I encounter the error SFErrorDomain Code=1: Unavailable error.
Is it possible to reload a content blocker from a LaunchAgent? If so, how can it be done?
//
// main.swift
// BlockerUpdater

import Foundation
import SafariServices
// Function to reload content blocker asynchronously
func reloadContentBlocker() async {
NSLog("Hello, World!")
do {
try await SFContentBlockerManager.reloadContentBlocker(withIdentifier: "me.livoni.blocker.dns")
NSLog("Reload complete")
} catch {
NSLog("Failed to reload content blocker: \(error.localizedDescription)")
}
}
// Main entry point for async code
@main
struct BlockerUpdater {
static func main() async {
await reloadContentBlocker()
}
}
This is not a supported flow for Safari Extensions. They should be part of an app. You are welcome to file an enhancement request for explicit support.
