File Associations

Pico Launcher supports custom file associations for file extensions other than .nds. By setting up a file association, files with the specified extension will be opened using the specified DS application. The file path is passed via argv.

How to setup file associations

  1. Open /_pico/settings.json.
  2. If not present yet, add a fileAssociations key.
  3. For each file association add a key inside the fileAssociations key. For example:
    "fileAssociations": {
      "xyz": {
        "appPath": "/path/to/xyz/app.nds"
      },
      "gba": {
        "appPath": "/myGbaApp.nds"
      }
    }
    
    With this setup .xyz files will be opened by /path/to/xyz/app.nds and .gba files will be opened by /myGbaApp.nds.
