Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Description changed:
- "mhall119 still wants a snap: URL scheme that will search installed or
- in the store"
+ [Impact]
+ We want GNOME Software to be able to open snap:// URLs. This allows us to
embed links in webpages to snaps (like apt://).
- Similar URLs
- ============
- apt:gedit
- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AptUrl
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Run xdg-open snap://moon-buggy
- appstream:org.gnome.gedit.desktop
-
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/sect-AppStream-Services-UrlHandler.html
+ Observed result:
+ Get error about unknown URL.
+
+ Expected result:
+ GNOME Software is opened showing the information for moon-buggy and ability
to install.
+
+ [Regression Potential]
+ Backported change from master has potential to break other URL handling.
Other URLs tested (apt:// appstream://) to confirm they still work.
