One of the neat things about OmniFocus is that you can add tasks to it by calling omnifocus:///add?name={query} from a browser, or launcher (like Alfred or LaunchBar). I'd like to know what other functions there are to call for it, and other apps as well.

I poked through the info.plist of Package Contents of the app, but it only detailed that omnifocus:// was indeed registered as a custom scheme. And I couldn't find any reference to it on Omni's site as well.

  • While I didn't figure out how to find specific URI schemes, I did solve my problems with an AppleScript that I imported into Alfred.

I like to use RCDefaultApp to manage handlers for protocols and URIs. There may be a better way to do it programmatically, but Rubicode's RCDefaultApp is very useful for a lot of other reasons too.

When you dump the launch services database does it show up there?

  • That's definitely nicer than poking through plists, but doesn't quite answer my question :). I don't want to know just what URI schemes are registered, but what functions they'll respond to.

    I added the path of lsregister to my suggestion, maybe the arguments and variables can be mined that way?
