openurl – Node.js module for opening URLs

openurl is a Node.js module for opening a URL via the operating system. This will usually trigger actions such as:

http URLs: open the default browser
mailto URLs: open the default email client
file URLs: open a window showing the directory (on OS X)

Example interaction on the Node.js REPL:

> require("openurl").open("http://rauschma.de")
> require("openurl").open("mailto:[email protected]")

You can generate emails as follows:

require("openurl").mailto(["[email protected]", "[email protected]"],
    { subject: "Hello!", body: "This is\nan automatically sent email!\n" });

Install via npm:

npm install openurl

I’m not yet terribly familiar with implementing npm packages, so any feedback is welcome (especially experience reports on Windows and Linux, which I can’t test on).

openurl's Issues

.idea is in your npm published package

I can see you added .idea to your .npmignore. Yet when I look at the published openurl folder in my node_modules folder I can see that a .idea folder is included. I don't think this folder was intentionally published and recommend removing it.

Publishing folders by accident can lead to exposing private information that you may otherwise not want to be made available.

Related to: npm/npm#5673

Throwing Error: Error: ATTENTION: default value of option force_s3tc_enable overridden by environment.

This module ships with Apollo 2 Universal Starter Kit . On running the script an error is thrown which I don't understand.

spin error Error: ATTENTION: default value of option force_s3tc_enable overridden by environment.

URLs with "=" do not open in Windows, opens explorer folder instead

When trying to use openurl to open a link with equals, eg, "http://www.google.com/test=a", openurl ends up opening an explorer window instead of the browser.

I found a alternate way to open URLs with special characters in Windows that you may want to use instead:

  var exec = require("child_process").exec
  execStr = "explorer.exe ^\"" + url + "^\"";
  exec(execStr);

openurl can not be used in server right ?

problem

When the code are arranged on the server, the server dose not have browser or anything, this tools will not work.

Maybe it's my mistake of understanding, but it can only run locally right?

Opening a URL wipes Firefox settings

Hi there,

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 with Firefox 54.0 (64-bit).
I used openurl to open a URL in Firefox, and then closed the browser.

Incidentally, I got these errors in the terminal (after closing the browser window):

Error: 
(firefox:5945): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_ref: assertion 'object->ref_count > 0' failed

(firefox:5945): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion 'object->ref_count > 0' failed

But that's not the main issue. When I opened Firefox, it forgot all my settings, theme, etc. Although, it remembered by account and history.

So what's going on here?
