How to add context menu to user's right click?

[billywatkins]

Hey,

I am trying to add a menu option to the user's right-click menu. I can't find any docs on this. Is it possible to add an option to the user's right-click? For example, when they select a file, our option should show up, like "Change the wallpaper."

for ex:

I found this in MUDA https://github.com/tauri-apps/muda?tab=readme-ov-file#context-menus-popup-menus. Is there any documentation on how to use this?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, I implemented this for my app on macOS (currently). You can check out the project here and the finder extension code here and here.

I decided not to implement a "finder sync extension" because they require compiling a separate .appex program and you'd have to use IPC which can get cumbersome. Rather, I used (the less powerful) NSServices which you can find defined in my Info.plist file.

It looks something like this:

@billywatkins @ok-nick If it is a Windows system, do you have any ideas or methods to implement this menu? Thank you~
