Some html files are being opened by a terminal text editor instead of their handlr default

Kabouik commented 4 years ago

I'm not sure what's wrong, but some html (I think only text/html) are being opened by a text editor instead of their handlr default:

~ $ handlr get text/html
firefox.desktop
~ $ ls /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
~ $ handlr open TOTO.html

→ Opens with kakoune.desktop.

~ $ cat ~/.local/bin/xdg-open
#!/bin/sh
handlr open "$@"
~ $ which xdg-open
/home/kabouik/.local/bin/xdg-open
~ $ xdg-open TOTO.html

→ Same (as expected).

~/.local/share/applications/kakoune.desktop:

Is it just a local issue on my machine or is it because the default for text/plain takes precedence for text/html?

Hi @Kabouik

Thanks for filing an issue!

This can happen if you have html files without doctype, html, body, and some other tags.

I've reported this issue upstream https://github.com/ebassi/xdg-mime-rs/issues/22 If it doesn't get resolved quickly there I will add a workaround.

Kabouik commented 4 years ago

Thanks, glad you identified the issue already. I'll keep a look on that.

tpeacock19 commented 2 years ago

@chmln do you plan on adding a workaround for this? I'm still experiencing this issue and it does not seem like it has gotten much attention upstream.

chmln / handlr

Some html files are being opened by a terminal text editor instead of their handlr default #10
