Custom launchpad plugin

You can do this in a plugin. See lp:bzr-colo for an example of a plugin that defines a new directory service (that's what the lp: prefix is called). In fact, the lp: specifier is itself from a plugin and so it should show the steps for registering a new directory service.

Hi Neil, Thank you for the quick response.

This sounds like exactly what I want to do. Could you please help me out a bit further and point me to the files where the example is? I'm not a python programmer, so any help here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Eric

'bzr plugins -v' will tell you where on your system the launchpad plugin is.
To get the sources otherwise:
'bzr branch lp:bzr' for bzr itself
bzr branch lp:bzr-colo' for the colo plugin.

You may also want to look at the bookmarks plugin (bzr branch lp:bzr-bookmarks) which solve
a different problem but may be enough for your needs (and doesn't require coding :).

Hi All,
I've been looking to do the same thing. I found a plugin called custom-url-schemes.
http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/plugins/en/custom-url-schemes-plugin.html

I have a server on the local network (at work) and on the Internet elsewhere... My projects are all stored in ~/branches/. I use bzr+ssh to access everything.
First add the custom url: "bzr custom-url-add serv bzr+ssh://<email address hidden>/~/branch/"
So rather than "bzr branch bzr+ssh://<email address hidden>/~/branch/project1"
I can type "bzr branch serv:project1"
It appears to work well :)

It seems to me that bookmarks allows you to bookmark a specific folder/project, this plugin allows you to map the server. I would think you can make the multiple users work fine using ssh certificates and file permissions.

Apologies, the syntax is: "bzr custom-url-scheme-add serv bzr+ssh://<email address hidden>/~/branch/"

I'd left out the "scheme" part of the command.
