Chrome extension which keeps scanning for file links and allows the clicked links to be opened via a system program. You are still responsible for writing the program for you system.
The extension tries to pass the clicked link to client through Native Messaging APIs.
Patters are matched against the clicked URL to check if the click should be intercepted. You can right click on any link or select text and choose "Open with Drive Link" to force open the link with system program.
*Update 0.8.1 - Won't catch empty urls, e.g. "/". Works with iframes too.
*Update 0.8.2 - File urls are added to history so visited links show differently
*Update 0.9.0.3 - Changed to Native Messaging for security
*Update 0.9.1.3 - Changed to run at document_start, bound observer to document ready
*Update 0.9.2.3 - Added ability to select text, right click and open
**I am still working on writing a Windows only client for intercepting native messages. Once done I will publish the code on Github. If anyone would like to create the program for other OSes, I will be more than happy to put links to repositories in here.
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
