registerProtocolHandler function

void registerProtocolHandler(String scheme, { String? executable, List<String>? arguments, })

Registers a protocol by scheme to allow for links in the form <scheme>://... to be processed by this application. By default, opening a link will open the executable that was used to register the scheme with the URL as the first argument passed to the executable.

If a protocol is already registered for the given scheme, this function will attempt to overwrite the previous handler with the current executable information. However, note that depending on process permissions, this operation may be disallowed by the underlying platform.

You may pass an executable to override the path to the executable to run when accessing the URL.

arguments is a list of arguments to be used when running the executable. If passed, the list must contain at least one element, and at least one of those elements must contain the literal value %s to denote the URL to open. Quoting arguments is not necessary, as this will be handled for you. Escaping the %s as an unprocessed literal is currently unsupported.

Implementation

void registerProtocolHandler(String scheme,
    {String? executable, List<String>? arguments}) {
  _handler?.register(scheme, executable: executable, arguments: arguments);
}
