I m in the process of creating a Ubuntu Installer and I need to register my own file extension I cant find any examples of how to do this.
Could people provide me with some script snippets on how to do this?
NB: Im using InstallJammer to help me create the installer, which allows me to call external scripts - so that is why a script would be beneficial.
An InstallJammer installer won t integrate very well with the distribution, but here goes.
Use xdg-mime install and xdg-mime default to set up the mimetype and associate it.
The recommended way is to write an ubuntu package, for example with CDBS (overview, docs, examples, bonus non-cdbs tutorial).
Then you add $PACKAGE.sharedmimeinfo and $APPNAME.desktop files in the debian/ directory. The sharedmimeinfo file describes the file type, the desktop file describes your app. The latter should contain a MimeType=application/x-$APPNAME; that matches the filetype.
