Obsidian URI set up for Linux / obsidian.desktop

Yes, to get URI working with AppImageLauncher wasn’t that hard.

  1. Open your .desktop file. (Mine was in /home/juris/.local/share/applications/).

  2. Find MimeType= and edit to MimeType=x-scheme-handler/obsidian;

  3. Open and edit mimeapps.list (also in /home/juris/.local/share/applications/) with:

       [Default Applications]
       x-scheme-handler/obsidian=appimagekit_8fbd98b6c46b129329185da71d885be3- 
       Obsidian.desktop
    
  4. Be sure that name after x-scheme-handler/obsidian= is the same as .desktop file created by AppImageLauncher inside ~/.local/share/applications

Now URI links should work.
