Unable to open bookmark that have `ext+container:name=NAME&url=https://example.com`

[pyrho]

There is a neat little FF feature to allows the user to open a bookmark directly in a given container. Using ext+container:name=THE_CONTAINER_NAME&url=https://example.com but it breaks when using this workflow.

Here is the log:

Let me know if you need more information ! Thanks.

[deanishe]

but it breaks when using this workflow.

The workflow just passes the URL to /usr/bin/open, and it’s not a URL scheme that the system recognises.

[pyrho]

Ah, too bad then :) Thanks.

[deanishe]

Ah, too bad then :)

I'll look into adding a workflow command to open a URL (which would probably be a better solution than using /usr/bin/open for a few reasons). But I'm not sure if it will work with such URLs: If I enter one in Firefox's URL bar, it treats it as a search query.

It works for me, maybe you need the Multi-Account container extension explicitely enabled (I don't recall what the default state is).

[deanishe]

maybe you need the Multi-Account container extension explicitely enabled

If you mean this extension, then I do have it enabled.

Do you have a link to the documentation for the container-specific URLs?

EDIT: The feature is actually provided by this extension, isn't it?

[pyrho]

🤦

Indeed, I installed it long ago and didn't even remember.

Sorry for the noise.

@deanishe any interst in supporting https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/open-url-in-container/ I will make a pull request if you are interested ?

BTW your alfred workflow is the reason I pay for alfred and left chrome
