You must use a desktop compatible with an XDG backend that supports the "App Chooser Portal": https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/XDG_Desktop_Portal#List_of_backends_and_interfaces

These have been listed as optional dependencies. You must install the XDG backend to suit your DE.

0.5.3 contains some major changes for package maintainers. The docs should cover most of it. Importantly, we changed how we handle NXM links, and how we provide the .desktop file.

Thank you, that's been removed.

The included nexusmods-app.desktop file has MimeType=x-scheme-handler/nxm which should be removed.

Abzie commented on 2024-06-20 13:26 (UTC)

The NXM handler is generated by the program on first startup/login prompt, it doesn't need to be included in the AUR package unlike the application's .desktop file.

@Abzie the nexusmods-app.desktop file that you ship is wrong. You want to create two desktop files:

1) For "Nexus Mods App" that launches the App. 2) For "Nexus Mods App NXM Handler"

We currently generate a .desktop file at runtime at ~/.local/share/applications/nexusmods-app-nxm.desktop:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=NexusMods.App NXM Handler
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Path=/ssd-pool/projects/NexusMods/app/main/src/NexusMods.App/bin/Debug/net8.0
Exec=/ssd-pool/projects/NexusMods/app/main/src/NexusMods.App/bin/Debug/net8.0/NexusMods.App protocol-invoke --url %u
NoDisplay=true
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/nxm;x-scheme-handler/nxm

I've updated the documentation with details on how to publish the project: https://nexus-mods.github.io/NexusMods.App/developers/Contributing/#for-package-maintainers

@yochananmarqos right, I should probably update the docs to include instructions for publishing. Building is easy, since it's a .NET application you can just do dotnet build. For publishing, we use PupNet: GitHub Workflow. This calls dotnet publish with the following additional arguments found in app.pupnet.conf.

@erri120: Thanks. However, I don't see any build instructions anywhere and the build scripts have been removed from the repo.

@yochananmarqos If you're building from source, check the docs we have for package maintainers. You want set INSTALLATION_METHOD_PACKAGE_MANAGER on build.
