Send link to 3rd party app

DintRead support sending article link to 3rd party apps which support custom URL scheme.

What is Custom URL Scheme

Custom URL schemes on macOS allow apps to register unique protocols (e.g., myapp://) to trigger specific actions.

With custom url scheme, we can pass article link data to 3rd party apps like this:

myapp:?url=<article link>

In this case, myapp is the custom url scheme of the 3rd party app, <article link> is the link of the article you want to send to.

Integrate Dint-Y2dl

Our macOS yt-dlp GUI app Dint-Y2dl support this feature by default, which means you can integrate Dint-Y2dl in DintRead and send article link to it for downloading.

To integrate Dint-Y2dl in DintRead, go to Settings -> Advanced, set 3rd party URL scheme to dinty2dl.

With this setup, you can now send link to Dint-Y2dl to download easily.
