I haven't upgraded yet because I use opener matches and I get warnings that it's no longer supported. For example:

match: (url) => (url.opener.name === "Asana"),
browser: "Microsoft Edge",

Since I only use Asana for work and have all my work accounts signed in in Edge, this does exactly what I need it to but in 4.0.0-beta.3, I get this warning:

Accessing legacy property "opener" that is no longer supported.

Is there a way to update my matches or am I stuck not upgrading?

Hey @raymond1138

Opener still exists, but it's now part of the second argument to the helper functions (match, browser, and url), so your example config could be updated to this:

match: (url, { opener }) => (opener.name === "Asana"),
browser: "Microsoft Edge",

This is documented here in the wiki but the warning message in the app isn't very specific unfortunately.

OK, thanks! I suspected as much but my developer skills were just enough out-of-date that I couldn't sort how to translate it. Appreciate the quick response and your hard work on the project!

finicky as a normal app (via spotlight for example) opens the debug / configuration window.

Are you saying I should be able to edit the config from that window? I don't see how.

Also, I don't see it running in the Dock, let it seems to be active. Does that mean when I click on URLs in, say, slack it starts Finicky and goes to the right browser and the exits?

Menu bar icon had been removed. Starting finicky as a normal app (via spotlight for example) opens the debug / configuration window.

I'm curious, why remove the menu bar icon? I also found it handy.

@nisc Me too. It takes up less space in the menu bar than having it sit in the dock. And on first use (invoked from CLI or Finder), I always get a superfluous window that I need to minimize to the Dock. Or am I missing a way to configure it to be better behaved? For now, I'm back on Finicky 3.

You don't need to run Finicky manually (except the first time, or whenever you want to use the window).

That being said, I think I will be exploring ways to restore the previous way Finicky was running, in the background with a menu bar icon, as an optional behavior in 4.

That's what I see. Is that correct?

Yes, this is correct. There's a bug here where it reports a new update being available even though we are on the latest version, and I'll create an issue to deal with it

If this gets added it will definitely be as an optional feature

I'm happy with Finicky not taking up space in my menu bar. It would be nice to be able to click a button in the app to open the config file like I used to, though since the app tells you where the file is that's pretty good too.

is there an equivalent of the console, where you could test how URLs would resolve?

There's no console in Finicky 4 (at least not yet).

You can run Finincky in dry-run mode (where it doesn't open any browsers) by running it from the terminal like so:
/Applications/Finicky.app/Contents/MacOS/Finicky --dry-run --window

The Finicky window should open, and any url you try to open wouldn't and would log to the window instead (many as debug logs, so make sure to enable their visibility by clicking 'Show Debug')

ok, thanks, that'll work (although I've made heavy use of the console for refining patterns)
