URL Router

Route URLs to different browsers based on rules


Why?

I found myself in a situation where I use one browser (Iridium) for private use and another (Chrome) for work. This poses a problem with opening links in arbitrary applications, since you can only specify one Default browser. Well, no more! URL Router sits in your status bar and routes links to where they should go.

How?

Either download one of the prebuilt binaries from the releases section, or if you don't trust me (you shouldn't), clone the repo and build it yourself with Xcode.

  1. open once and add all the rules you want
    • it's recommendable to add a "fallback" rule for all links that don't match a rule: "route links beginning with http to default browser"
  2. Go to system preferences > General and set URL Router as your default browser
