open command does not respect mimetype.toml #490

Open BigBrotherJu opened 9 months ago

BigBrotherJu commented 9 months ago

When I press l or enter in joshuto, the text file (with extention and without extention) under cursor is not opened according to mimetype.toml. Instead, the bottom line displays :open_with.

My config folder ~/.config/joshuto does not contain mimetype.toml, so joshuto should be using the default one.

I'm on Mac Sonoma with joshuto 0.9.6.

The default config may not contain an editor that your system has, which is why its prompting :open_with

For mac, I would recommend enabling 

xdg_open = true
xdg_open_fork = true

inside joshuto.toml

But I already installed micro and bat. According to the default mimetype.toml, one of them should be used when opening text file. @kamiyaa

Figured it out. The default mimetype.toml has to be present in my ~/.config/joshuto folder for l or enter to work.

This seems to contradict the statement in config doc:

Joshuto's behavior is:

  • If there exists a config file, use that config. (No default or inherited values from a default config)
  • If there is no config file, a default config will be used (found under config/)

In my case, if there is no mimetype.toml in ~/.config/joshuto, the default mimetype.toml is not used.

I installed joshuto on Arch looking to try a faster ranger but every file I open just prompts :open_with as the OP here describes.

I notice that the joshuto package (or the joshuto-bin package) on Arch just installs a single file /usr/bin/joshuto does that seem right?
