I don't know if there is any jvm api that register this for every single operational system, they have different implementation. For linux that I know how, you have to register the schema in the .desktop file of your application and would work. Here you can find a example for Slack flathub .desktop file: https://github.com/flathub/com.slack.Slack/blob/master/slack.desktop#L10

Maybe if we use this it will work(at least on linux):
--file-associations (https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/14/docs/specs/man/jpackage.html)

Usage example: https://stackoverflow.com/a/60786170/5827505

Maybe someone from JB can clarify how we can add arguments to jpackage

Wanna file a feature request for your platform? I was able to implement this on macOS using custom Info.plist entries https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-jb/issues/795

[Dragos Rachieru]

@saket can you show me how you configured Info.plist?

For macOS it is documented here: https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-jb/tree/master/tutorials/Native_distributions_and_local_execution#example-deep-linking-into-macos-apps

[Dragos Rachieru]

if we can do the same thing slack using .desktop, maybe we can have something similar to infoPlist for linux

Does anyone have an idea how to get this working on Windows?
