Read SSID name inside a Chrome extension

Question

I'm developing a Chrome extension and is there a way to read the SSID name or Network name of the current connection from the code?

@JaromandaX any javascript that would read this info at least from Windows? — warunanc, Jan 12 '16 at 05:11
I'm not aware of what you can do with chrome extensions as far as running external executables - which is what you would need to do — Jaromanda X, Jan 12 '16 at 05:20
"running external executables" is not possible in a Chrome extension. Too bad — warunanc, Jan 12 '16 at 05:33

There are no Chrome Extension APIs that would provide this information.

As suggested in comments, your only option is to have a Native Host module that would do it for you.
