[Missing Mimetype] PureScript about suru-plus-ubuntu HOT 11 CLOSED

This is the third extension that Linux does not support yet.

ELM, Nim and PureScript are not present in the file associations list at Manjaro KDE.

If not, maybe you have to add and create x-elm, x-nim and x-purs, like:

But I am waiting for the answer of @SmartFinn.

from suru-plus-ubuntu.

I have tested, creating new extension and it worked. But you use GNOME and I do not know how to create the new extension. Let's wait for the answer of @SmartFinn, he is an experienced programmer. As these extensions are not supported yet, the programmers who use this icons theme have to create by themselves.

GNOME developers: @averi, @behdad, @cgwalters and @SEJeff

Good evening, please consider adding support for ELM, Nim and PureScript programming languages as new files associations if possible. They are becoming popular, principally ELM.

from suru-plus-ubuntu.

Now, in the commit 3a7ee64, PureScript mimetype is added.

Wait for the answer of @SmartFinn, he will test it and tell you how you create in GNOME.

@gusbemacbe okay, thank you so much!

from suru-plus-ubuntu.

@SmartFinn, sorry, I found something, but I am not sure it will work on Gnome, maybe @ntilotta , you can try and test.

I found where the ELM ffile asocitaion I created is stored. It is in ~/.local/share/mime/

Run via terminal:

touch ~/.local/share/mime/text/x-elm.xml
touch ~/.local/share/mime/icons
nano ~/.local/share/mime/text/x-elm.xml

Copy

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mime-type xmlns="http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info" type="text/x-elm">
  <!--Created automatically by update-mime-database. DO NOT EDIT!-->
  <comment>ELM Programming Language</comment>
  <icon name="x-elm"/>
  <glob-deleteall/>
  <glob pattern="*.elm"/>
</mime-type>

And modify the file icons via the command nano ~/.local/share/mime/icons

x-elm

Log out and log in

@gusbemacbe I've using this method as described in here https://developer.gnome.org/integration-guide/stable/mime.html.en as follow:

In directory /usr/share/mime/packages I've created those files:

elm-lang.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mime-info xmlns='http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info'>
  <mime-type type="text/x-elm">
    <comment>Elm Programming Language</comment>
    <glob pattern="*.elm"/>
    <icon name="x-elm"/>
  </mime-type>
</mime-info>

nim-lang.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mime-info xmlns='http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info'>
  <mime-type type="text/x-nim">
    <comment>Nim Programming Language</comment>
    <glob pattern="*.nim"/>
    <icon name="x-nim"/>
  </mime-type>
  <mime-type type="text/x-nim">
    <comment>NimScript File</comment>
    <glob pattern="*.nims"/>
    <icon name="x-nim"/>
  </mime-type>
  <mime-type type="text/x-nim">
    <comment>Nimble File</comment>
    <glob pattern="*.nimble"/>
    <icon name="x-nim"/>
  </mime-type>
</mime-info>

purescript.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mime-info xmlns='http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info'>
  <mime-type type="text/x-purs">
    <comment>PureScript Programming Language</comment>
    <glob pattern="*.purs"/>
    <icon name="x-purs"/>
  </mime-type>
</mime-info>

then on the console just enter sudo update-mime-database /usr/share/mime/ and you've done, it works like a charm ;)

Great! I close now.

Ideally this would be added to shared-mime-info so individual desktop environments wouldn't have to redundantly add support themselves.

@Pointedstick

I read, but I do not understand. Are you suggesting us to submit an enhancement request to the MIME bugtracker with our new missed XML files that we have created?

from suru-plus-ubuntu.

Yes.
