<h1>App Default Protocol Demo</h1>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>The protocol API allows us to register a custom protocol and intercept existing protocol requests.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>These methods allow you to set and unset the protocols your app should be the default app for. Similar to when a
|
|
|
|
|
browser asks to be your default for viewing web pages.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Open the <a href="https://www.electronjs.org/docs/api/protocol">full protocol API documentation</a> in your
|
|
|
|
|
browser.</p>

<h3>Demo</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
First: Launch current page in browser
|
|
|
|
|
<button id="open-in-browser" class="js-container-target demo-toggle-button">
|
|
|
|
|
Click to Launch Browser
|
|
|
|
|
</button>
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
|
Then: Launch the app from a web link!
|
|
|
|
|
<a href="electron-fiddle://open">Click here to launch the app</a>
|
|
|
|
|
</p>

|
|
|
<p>You can set your app as the default app to open for a specific protocol. For instance, in this demo we set this app
|
|
|
|
|
as the default for <code>electron-fiddle://</code>. The demo button above will launch a page in your default
|
|
|
|
|
browser with a link. Click that link and it will re-launch this app.</p>

<h3>Packaging</h3>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>This feature will only work on macOS when your app is packaged. It will not work when you're launching it in
|
|
|
|
|
development from the command-line. When you package your app you'll need to make sure the macOS <code>plist</code>
|
|
|
|
|
for the app is updated to include the new protocol handler. If you're using <code>electron-packager</code> then you
|
|
|
|
|
can add the flag <code>--extend-info</code> with a path to the <code>plist</code> you've created. The one for this
|
|
|
|
|
app is below:</p>
