file-association

File Association Sample Project

This sample project demonstrates how to associate a file type with an application. More info at: https://v3.wails.io/learn/guides/file-associations/

To run the sample, follow these steps:

1. Run wails3 package to generate the package.
2. On Windows, run the installer that was built in the bin directory.
3. Double-click on the test.wails file to open it with the application.
4. On macOS, double-click on the test.wails file and select the built application.

Running on macOS with private APIs

This example configures a translucent macOS backdrop. The webview transparency needed to reveal that backdrop requires the private_mac_apis build tag. Without it, the example runs with an opaque webview above the native backdrop.

From this example directory, run:

go run -tags private_mac_apis .

Omit -tags private_mac_apis to run with public macOS APIs only. The tag has no effect on Windows, Linux, iOS, or Android. See the shared private API guide for production builds and fallback details.
