Specify URL Scheme ide://

fahad-israr commented 3 years ago

~~I figured out that the URI Scheme was missing.~~
~~Specifying the URL Scheme does try launch starfix application(tested on macos Catalina 10.15.7).~~
The problem that still remains is that I am unable to launch the Starfix application on mac (after moving starfix to application folder).
One might wonder that if the application doesn't launch then how am I concluding that this ide:// scheme handler works ?? Well, on hitting open ide://somtxt on the Terminal I can see starfix application bouncing on my Dock at the bottom (The same behaviour which happens when I try to open the starfix application directly)
Another thing I was wondering is that could we run the build.sh script beforehand while the installer is being generated(through gh-actions) . This is a low priority concern but I was just thinking about it so that the user gets the starfix.app directly which he can directly move to applications folder. (I am not sure if the output of build.sh is system dependant: if yes then this point is of no use)

Here's a quick preview of what happens. Note that here I am triggering starfix application from the browser which indicated that the `ide://` protocol handler is working fine. (I've installed the extension from the Mozilla Add on store just to confirm if evrything is working fine with the extension)

what are you moving to the application folder exactly ?

Thats the intention (that it runs during gh-actions)

I'm trying to move starfix.app ( the output generated after running build.sh)
