Whenever I click a server invite link in my browser for example, I get the xdg-open popup window which in turn opens my browser with a link in the following format:
discord:///invite-proxy/some numbers
I’m relatively familiar with xdg-mime commands, but I’m not sure what the “filetype” I should be associating with my discord.desktop file should be. Anyone that can help?
Thanks
Huh, on my Arch PC there’s no even a request to accept the invite link within the browser, as long as I have any (mine, official) Discord client opened (i.e. browser does just redirect me to the opened client in order to proceed), with the closed client though there’s a request to log in and with that I can accept the invite link within the browser. So again, no XDG or custom protocols are involved for me. So really I have no clue how you’re doing this.
I should be saying that I use Firefox and X11 for testing, but I’m more than sure that whenever I would use Wayland or X11 it won’t matter, webpage shouldn’t have a way to detect this and behave differently. So I have no clue how to even trigger Discord to use their protocol over WS without setting up anything extra. I’ve been also using the
discordpackage as of the client.Also from what I see with the
steam, you can register the protocol with MIME and .desktop butdiscorddoes configure neither of these. So it doesn’t seem like this would be a thing anymore, but again I might be mistaken or maybe Arch packagers don’t want from Discord to register their protocol, I dunno.While I agree it should be irrelevant, I am using bspwm and X11. Anyway, its such a minor issue that its unimportant. Thanks for all your input either way :)
