Hi everyone What do you think about having a spice URL (scheme)? The idea behind this is that we would like to register a protocol handler in the browser (or in the OS) to automatically start the spice client based on a certain URL.
examples: spice://somehost:port/?password=sekrit&fullscreen=true spices://somehost:sport/?password=sekrit&fullscreen=true Unfortunately I did not find a way to have the browser or the OS parse the arguments before calling the registered protocol handler. Thus I either have to code a wrapper around the spice client to do that job or extend the spice client argument parser to accept an url as a parameter. Since I prefer latter, I started by extending the Application class by a url parser method and added a new command line flag '--url''. examples: spicec --url "spice://somehost:port/" Opinions? Would this be useful for others as well or should I rather write a wrapper?
