A Gnome shell extension to find recent IntelliJ Rider projects in search.
- Gnome shell 3.34 or newer
- Python 3.6 or newer (as
python3in$PATH)
Install via Gnome Extensions.
Alternatively download the latest .shell-extension.zip from Releases and run
gnome-extensions install intellij-rider-search-provider@seifattar.net.shell-extension.zipNote: Version numbers from Gnome Extensions and Releases differ, because uploading to Gnome Extensions renumbers releases. If you switch between installation methods, remove and reinstall.
- I do not know how to parse XML in GJS, so finding recent IntelliJ projects
relies on a Python helper which parses
recentProjects.xmland outputs relevant parts as JSON (see GH-1).
I'd like to thank gnome-shell-web-search-provider and vscode-search-provider for inspiration and their source code which demonstrates how to use the—apparently entirely internal and undocumented—Gnome shell API for search providers.
Stand on the shoulders of giants and you can even write Javascript for Gnome.
