Add Radical to matrix.to #30

Open auscompgeek opened 4 years ago

auscompgeek commented 4 years ago

Would be great for Radical to add itself to matrix.to.

I'm not entirely sure if this is possible currently, but maybe React provides enough hooks for it to be feasible? Or maybe matrix.to adds some custom URI schemes or such…

Nice idea, not sure if they're open to add new things, but I'd say opening an PR over at matrix.to would be the "correct" way to do it. Having the Add-on itself modify the content of matrix.to would require to request permissions for that domain, which I'd like to avoid if possible.

As it stands though there's no way to link to Radical without knowing the internal UUID, IIUC. Either Radical or Riot (preferably) would have to register a protocol handler, if we're not going to inject into matrix.to.

Radical could register a protocol and use that to redirect directly to the Riot extension page. E.g. I'm using Open URL in container to open bookmarks in specific containers with that approach.
