More "Open in" applications and customisation

[feigaoxyz]

Summarize this feature

Provide ways to customise "Open in" experience.

Why should this feature be included?

macOS provides functionality in command line as open -a MyApp /path/to/file/or/folder to customise the open experience. For example, user can use open -a CotEditor /path/to/folder to open folder in CodEditor; or open -a MacVim ~/myPath to open folder in MacVim.

Hope your app can provide ways for users to customise this to facilitate the individual needs instead of adding the support one by one through Issues.

PHPStorm would be awesome, too! :)

open -a PhpStorm /path/to/folder

@ouun I don't have PhpStorm on my machine. Have you tried this command? If it works, I will add this feature in the next version without testing.😂

[ouun]

Yes I tested it and works perfectly. :) THX

[Ji4n1ng]

Awesome!

@ouun OpenInTerminal v2.2.0 has released. The new version supports PhpStorm.

@Ji4n1ng Great news. Just tested it and somehow PHPStorm is not recognized as installed application. How do you test that so that I can confirm that it should be listed as installed.

[Ji4n1ng]

@ouun I have tested it and it works.

@Ji4n1ng thanks for testing! I guess I know why it is not recognizing it for me. I'm using the JetBrains Toolbox to update JetBrains Software such as PhpStorm. So the app is not directly located a bit different. Running $ system_profiler SPApplicationsDataType | grep PhpStorm

    PhpStorm:
      Location: /Users/philipp/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/Toolbox/apps/PhpStorm/ch-0/193.6911.26/PhpStorm.app
      Get Info String: PhpStorm 2019.3.4, build PS-193.6911.26. Copyright JetBrains s.r.o., (c) 2000-2020
    PhpStorm:
      Location: /Users/philipp/Applications/JetBrains Toolbox/PhpStorm.app` 

That's why I wondered how you check for an app installed.

Kind regards

@ouun Currently OpenInTerminal only checks two directories: /Applications/PhpStorm.app and /Users/user/Applications/PhpStorm.app. I will change this in order to find app in a subfolder in the next version. Maybe you could try to add a symlink in /Applications folder. I don't know if it works or not.

SublimeMerge would also be very cool to have!

Typora would be nice which is an awesome markdown editor.

[Ji4n1ng]

@ouun This problem has been solved. Please update the latest version.

[ouun]

Beautiful! Thanks a lot, I can confirm it is working as expected.
