Firefox 96 Webapps for Gnome 3

Overview

mozapp

Do you prefer Firefox to Chrome? Me too! But ever since Firefox dropped support for standalone web applications, I've resorted to using Chrome for those. Better than installing a bloated Electron app, but not ideal.

This is my best attempt at fixing the situation. Tested only using Firefox 96 and Gnome 3 using the Wayland protocol. It's a 100 line commented and straightforward Python script.

Screenshot of Github made into a borderless WebApp. You can use the Windows key + drag to move a borderless window in Gnome 3.

Usage

(venv) [[email protected] mozapp]$ python3 mozapp.py
Usage: python3 mozapp.py Example https://example.com optional-icon-name

List of installed apps (and also the commands to de-install them):
rm -r /home/marten/.local/share/webapp/WhatsApp /home/marten/.local/share/applications/webapp-WhatsApp.desktop
rm -r /home/marten/.local/share/webapp/Agenda /home/marten/.local/share/applications/webapp-Agenda.desktop
(venv) [[email protected] mozapp]$ python3 mozapp.py Skype https://web.skype.com/ call-start
Success! Try searching for 'Skype'.

List of installed apps (and also the commands to de-install them):
rm -r /home/marten/.local/share/webapp/WhatsApp /home/marten/.local/share/applications/webapp-WhatsApp.desktop
rm -r /home/marten/.local/share/webapp/Agenda /home/marten/.local/share/applications/webapp-Agenda.desktop
rm -r /home/marten/.local/share/webapp/Skype /home/marten/.local/share/applications/webapp-Skype.desktop
(venv) [[email protected] mozapp]$ rm -r /home/marten/.local/share/webapp/Skype /home/marten/.local/share/applications/webapp-Skype.desktop
(venv) [[email protected] mozapp]$

If you specify an icon name as third argument, it is used as-is in the resulting .desktop file. If you don't, mozapp will try to download the biggest icon given by the web application (it visits the web app). In that case, you need to have the favicon Python package installed from PyPI (e.g. using pip install favicon).
