First, in the browser, go to Tools > Extensions (or about://extensions), enable Developer mode and Load unpacked extension... with the root of this repo. Notice, the extension ID.
Next, place chrome-mpris2 somewhere in your $PATH and run install-chrome.py giving it the extension ID and optionally the path (not just the directory) of your just-installed chrome-mpris2 (defaults to ~/bin/chrome-mpris2). This will check that you have all the dependencies and tell the browser about chrome-mpris2 (so that the plugin can use it).
