configure maps app used in calendar link to location
asked 2018-10-16 17:46:01 +0300
Hi,
In calendar app, when you open an event, you can click on the location of the event, and this opens maps app.
Is it possible to configure which app is opened ? I’d like to use osmand (on android layer…), instead of the default maps app…
This is a nice question. Would love to change that as well. However I'd like to use Pure-Maps (native offline capable Maps solution with Voice-Navigation). There is a patch to make firefox browser default browser available at OpenRepos. Maybe that can be used as template to make a patch for default map handler: https://github.com/RikudouSage/sailfishos-firefox-default-handle

DBusInterface { id: mapsInterface
service: "org.sailfishos.maps" path: "/" iface: "org.sailfishos.maps"
function openAddress(street, city, region, zipcode, country) { call('openAddress', [street, city, region, zipcode, country]) } }
in
/usr/lib/qt5/qml/Sailfish/Contacts/ContactCard.qml
naytsyrhc ( 2018-10-16 22:07:29 +0300 )Just a wild guess: is it possible that the MimeType value in the file /usr/share/application/jolla-maps takes care for the opening of the geo info with jolla-maps and that cutting this line from the jolla-maps and pasting it into the osmand file (harbour-osmand??) would make this happen??
