Cannot use this for x-callback calls #51

Closed jgclark closed 7 months ago

jgclark commented 7 months ago

I realise this module has HTTP in the title ... but I was hoping to find a way to trigger x-callbacks with other protocols than http(s).

My particular use case is for NotePlan app which has many functions that can be triggered this way. e.g. noteplan://x-callback-url/runPlugin?pluginID=jgclark.Dashboard&command=show%20dashboard

Apologies if another module covers this, but if so its not obvious from the name.

According to the noteplan documentation, you can access noteplan URLs from the command line using the "open" command. So you should be able to use the 'internal: System: Run shell path (local)' action, using the path:

open "noteplan://x-callback-url/runPlugin?pluginID=jgclark.Dashboard&command=show%20dashboard"

Not having a Mac, I couldn't test this myself.

You're a ⭐️ @JeLuF. Thanks for figuring out that successful alternative.
