Opening AppImages

[edspark]

Hello, I'm attempting to use Yazi to open a few .AppImage files that I have to no avail. I did come across this thread but that was back in Februrary and it does not seem to be working for me. I''m not sure the exec is a viable argument as I'm not seeing it in the documentation. I've tried run as well....

[opener]
app_image = [
{ run = './"$1"', orphan = true, desc = "Run AppImage", for = "unix" }
]

Any help would be awesome, thanks!

Nothing like answering your own questions. It was easy once you familiarize yourself with the documentation (heh):

[opener]
app_image = [
{ run = '"$0"', orphan = true, desc = "Run AppImage", for = "unix" }
]

[open]
prepend_rules = [
{name = "*.AppImage", use = ["app_image"]},
]

You need an additional opener and then you need to add the opener to the list of "open" rules which looks for an AppImage, easy! Since they're self executing you just execute it directly which is what the run= "$0" does. You can also do $1, though I'm not entirely clear on the difference between hovered, $0 and selected, $1.
