Bug ID: 401604
Summary: Allow to cofigure `x-scheme-handler` MymeTypes
Product: systemsettings
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_componentchooser
Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
Reporter: piroxil...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Allow to manage MimeTypes `x-scheme-handler/x`.
To be able to pass to applications a custom protocols (URLs).
For example in `x-scheme-handler/x`, `x` can be:
- magnet (for torrent magnet links),
- spotify (spotify),
- tg (telegram),
- rtsp (real-time streaming protocol),
- org-protocol (protocol to path through information to the Emacs Org).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Settings -> Application -> File Associations
OBSERVED RESULT
There is no `x-scheme-handler` section nor a possibility to create a handler.
EXPECTED RESULT
There to be `x-scheme-handler` section which shows the currently known
protocols and allows to declare new ones/set default applications for them.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: current NixOS 19.03pre
KDE Plasma Version: 5.14.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.51.0
Qt Version: 5.11.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Here I describe the current way to register `x-scheme-handler`.
I have not found the solid source of information to this process.
To set the connection between URL and application - user must make a pretty
wide research, get the knowledge about desktop files, MimeTypes, how
`x-scheme-handler` protocols work and get info on what to do.
Manually create the right `~/.local/share/applications/handler.desktop` entry.
Register the desktop entry with `kbuildsycoca5`.
Register the desktop entry with right xdg command, aka `xdg-mime default
org-protocol.desktop x-scheme-handler/org-protocol`
Only because found the next thread - managed to register `x-scheme-handler`, in
the thread, you can see what it takes to discover the path I described:

Thank you for everything.
Good day for you.
