nostr:links on your Desktop, even if you don't use a native clientThis is the most barebones possible, it will just open a web browser at
https://nostr.guru/with the contents of thenostr:link.Create this file at
~/.local/share/applications/nostr-opener.desktop:[Desktop Entry] Exec=/home/youruser/nostr-opener %u Name=Nostr Browser Type=Application StartupNotify=false MimeType=x-scheme-handler/nostr;(Replace "youruser" with your username above.)
This will create a default handler for
nostr:links. It will be called with the link as its first argument.Now you can create the actual program at
~/nostr-opener. For example:```python
!/usr/bin/env python
import sys import webbrowser
nip19 = sys.argv[1][len('nostr:'):] webbrowser.open(f'https://nostr.guru/{nip19}') ```
Remember to make it executable with
chmod +x ~/nostr-opener.
