Shorts cannot access file system outside of its dir ? 12:39 Correct. 12:39 So browser downloads to one location, shorts has no access to that, which is why you go via the content-hub 12:39 I think it is possible to register opml file to system setting, to make Shorts as the default app to open it 12:40 Possibly, yes. 12:41 should be easier than using content-hub :P 12:42 Ok. Anything else? 12:43 So I think the use case is: download opml -- user click the opml -- Shorts launch -- a wizard to import that opml 12:43 kinda. you can't "click" the opml file though. There's no guarantee of a file manager on a phone ☻ 12:43 like a desktop app :P 12:44 oh I didn't realize that 12:45 Yeah, that's why it's difficult, and we'd use content-hub 12:46 so.. add a export to content-hub ? 12:46 well, could go both way 12:46 import from content-hub an opml file you downloaded 12:47 export to content-hub to save your list of feeds 12:48 user should launch the Shorts first ? 12:48 then import opml ? 12:48 Yes, which launches content-hub where user can go and find the downloaded opml file 12:49 I think users won't like doing this way ... 12:49 well, you might be able to do it the other way. 12:49 Register a mime type for opml files, so when they're downloaded the content hub knows to push to shorts. 12:49 I think "click" the opml file directly from browser is better 12:50 agree 12:50 yep 12:50 :) 12:50 ☻ 12:50 Ok, anything else? 12:51 Is the browser able to download now ? 12:51 i'm using r50 12:52 we just promoted #71 12:53 yes, it should be able to 12:53 wow cool 12:53 I think ☻ 12:53 Right, i need to wrap up. 12:53 Thanks JoeyChan, and have a great weekend! 12:53 thx u 2 12:54 #endmeeting Generated by MeetBot 0.1.5 (http://wiki.ubuntu.com/meetingology)
