Overview

Website Opener is a Flow Launcher plugin that enables users to quickly open, manage, and search websites. It supports adding, removing, and searching websites by name, with a context menu for copying URLs or deleting entries. Language prompts can be switched dynamically (e.g., English or Chinese) using JSON files in the dictionary folder.

Features

• Add Websites: Use gw add <name> <url> to add a website, confirmed by pressing Enter.
• Remove Websites: Use gw remove <name> to delete a website, confirmed by pressing Enter.
• Search Websites: Enter gw <keyword> to search websites by name.
• Context Menu: Right-click a website to copy its URL or delete it.
• Language Switching: Use gw set language <lang> (e.g., zh, en) to switch prompt languages, stored in settings.json.
• Unicode Support: Supports Chinese and other Unicode characters in website names.
• Security: Sanitizes inputs to prevent invalid characters and validates URLs.

Installation

1. Prerequisites:
   • Flow Launcher v1.20.2 or later.
   • Python 3.8 (e.g., D:\env\python3.8\pythonw.exe).
2. Install in Flow Launcher:

   pm install WebsiteOpener by zephyr

3. Install Plugin:
   • Restart Flow Launcher
4. Verify Setup:
   • Open Flow Launcher (Alt + Space), type gw, and check if the plugin loads.

Usage

• List Websites: Type gw to view all saved websites or a message if the list is empty.
• Add Website: Type gw add grok https://grok.com, then press Enter to confirm.
• Remove Website: Type gw remove grok, then press Enter to confirm.
• Search Website: Type gw grok to find websites containing "grok".
• Switch Language: Type gw set language en to switch to English prompts (or zh for Chinese).
• Context Menu: Right-click a website result to copy its URL or delete it.
• Example:

  gw add grok https://grok.com  # Shows "Confirm adding website grok"
  gw grok                      # Shows "Open grok" with URL
  gw set language zh           # Switches to Chinese prompts

Language Support

• Dynamic Languages: Prompts are loaded from dictionary/<lang>.json (e.g., zh.json, en.json).
• Add New Language:
  1. Create a new JSON file (e.g., dictionary/ja.json) with the same structure as zh.json.
  2. Example ja.json:

     {
       "empty_list": "ウェブサイトリストが空です",
       "empty_list_sub": "'add 名前 URL' または 'remove 名前' を使用してウェブサイトを管理、または 'set language <lang>' で言語を設定",
       ...
     }

  3. Use gw set language ja to switch to the new language.
• Default Language: Syncs with Flow Launcher’s language (zh-CN → zh, en-US → en).

Debugging

• Log File: Check C:\Users\<YourUsername>\AppData\Roaming\FlowLauncher\Plugins\goWeb\plugin.log for errors.
• Common Issues:
  • Language not loading: Ensure dictionary/<lang>.json exists and is valid JSON.
  • Plugin not responding: Verify Python 3.8 and dependencies (pyflowlauncher, pyperclip).
  • Invalid URL: URLs must start with http:// or https://.
