Open With: store_commands keeps each existing file the OS hands over (launch
argument, a second launch forwarded by single-instance with its working
directory, a macOS file:// open-URL) under a random id (Store::receive_file:
name says what it is, regular file, size cap, 8 kept, 15 minutes) and queues
LinkEvent.opened {id, name, kind}. The shell-only install_stage_opened {id}
reads that one file once and stages it exactly like a dropped file; it takes
an id only (testkit asserts that), so the shell cannot name a path. The shell
shows the same install screen; nothing installs without it. The NSIS template
lists the app under "Open with" for the declared extensions (OpenWithProgids)
and never makes it the default program, unlike Tauri's own macro.
Catalog kinds: icons (an icon pack, *.icons.json, at most 120 KB; validate_icons,
staged and committed as text for the shell, the install screen draws every icon,
.icons.json is no longer read as a theme) and builtin (a feature the app
already has, such as an area plugin: no url, sha256, size or file; never staged;
the Store view lists it as Built in with the app's own switch via the areas
prop). Rust: Kind, CatalogItem.check, verify_item, install links refuse builtin.
JS: storeModel, installController (requestOpened, icons adapter), InstallDialog,
StoreView, StoreSection (remove an icon pack, area switches), words. CLI and
JSON Schema: kinds, optional url/sha256/size on builtin, icons size cap; the
test schema validator learns not and if/then/else. docs/STORE.md.
Moved from wayBetter for X (scripts/build-store.mjs, scripts/sign-store.mjs) into the `waybetter`
npm package, generic over the app:
- bin/waybetter.mjs + cli/store.mjs. `build --config <store.config.mjs>`: the config names its app
and returns its items (metadata, file path + bytes, optional preview); build replaces only that
app's items in the shared catalog (other apps' items and files stay), removes files only its old
items used, fills url/sha256/size/apps, and validates the whole catalog with the rules apps apply
natively before anything is written. `sign` (and `sign --init`: create the key once, 0600, never
overwritten) signs the exact catalog bytes; `verify` checks the signature with any listed public
key (rotation) and the catalog rules. The private key is never printed, copied or moved; --key
defaults to $WAYBETTER_STORE_KEY. pluginHeader() for configs.
- store-catalog.schema.json (format 2, `apps` per item), exported with the CLI module.
- Tests: multi-app builds in one folder, refusals (bad items, duplicates, paths outside the folder,
hosts), schema vs CLI rules, sign/verify round trip incl. rotation and tampering, no key
material printed. jsonSchema.mjs learns minItems, uniqueItems and allOf.
- plugin: *.plugin.js with the store header and start/stop on api.scope, storage, observe,
onKey, the UI kit (toast with action, ui.h settings dialog) and api.theme/--wb-* vars;
--ts makes a TypeScript project typed by the waybetter package (build keeps the header first)
- theme: JSON with "$schema" -> theme.schema.json, palette derived like themeFromColors,
font roles (family, tweet), presets
- app: Tauri 2 + waybetter-host + runtime + shell models: SiteSpec, SiteAdapter, shell/tab-chrome/
site-tab capabilities, tabs_sync, plugin store, a site-only command; presets for youtube.com,
kick.com, twitch.tv with placeholder selectors; host crate via submodule, path or git
- tests generate into temp dirs: headers via parse_meta (new plugin_meta example), plugin code
against createCorePluginApi's members, themes against the schema, app TS with tsc against the
built package, app Rust with cargo metadata/check/test
- wired into bun run check (typecheck incl. checkJs, build:packages, test:create) and pack:check
