multiple firefox profiles in AWN
#19180 by craigyjack (0.1916) posted on 12:31pm Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008
I use multiple firefox profiles at the same time. I was trying to set up launchers for these profiles in AWN.
Because of the way AWN decides whether an app matches the launcher (from reading the part about it in the wiki), my launchers are not working how I wanted them to.
I have 3 launchers:
Firefox: /usr/bin/firefox -no-remote -P "default"
Gmail: /usr/bin/firefox -no-remote -P "gmail"
Google Calendar: /usr/bin/firefox -no-remote -P "googlecalendar"
[Q]



When I just launch the "Firefox", it works fine and sticks with the icon. If I open Gmail or Google Calendar when "Firefox" is not open, the task does not stay with the Gmail or Google Cal launcher icon but instead flips over to the firefox icon launcher.
If I launch Gmail or Google Calendar when Firefox is running - then AWN will load another icon task onto the dock with the default firefox logo, instead of keeping the task on the Gmail or Google Calendar launcher from where it was launched.
[Q]



Does anyone know a way, or workaround, that I can get AWN to use the Gmail nad Google Calendar launcher as the task when I launch them - instaed of AWN pulling up another default firefox icon and ignoring my Gmail or Google Cal icon then.
Thanks,
Craig

I don't think its possible... unless you rename the firefox launcher to "Firefox Default" or something that is not in the title bar. However, that means none of the launchers trap the icon.

Here's a slightly different suggestion: have you looked into mozilla prism?

Actually I have. And I eagerly await the day that it is up to my exact needs. It is a cool project - I wish there was more development going on with it, but I understand since most mozilla development is going into firefox 3 right now which I can't wait for too.
But I would like Prism to have firefox extension support. It is on the wishlist - "Enable extension support so Prism can be tweaked or enhanced. Also, webapps themselves can be tweaked by extensions".
I can prob use Prism for my Google Calendar, (they alreayd have bundles for gmail and google calendar), but I will prob wait until extension support to use gmail in it b/c i need my gmail extensions :)
[Q]



I hope Prism gets running smoother too, which hopefully after Firefox 3 is released, some of that tech can go into Prism to make it better. It seems pretty speedy for me on Linux and nice. It was slow and not good on Mac though - but I figured out some hacks in mac os x to get firefox profiles in the mac dock as there own apps.
[Q]



Hopefully I can do it sometime in AWN.
Thanks!

Well, then I can only offer you my other suggestion: rename the firefox launcher to "Firefox Default Profile" (Or whatever else is not in firefox's title bar at all times). But then, instead of the firefox launcher not grabbing your gcal icon, it won't grab it, but it won't grab its own either.

I have looking hard for a way to change the defualt title of firefox when it boots up (Mozilla Firefox). There is the extensions Firesomething/Tweak Title that do this, but it seems they load after the program has initialized the default title already and AWN already flips it to its own task. I'm gonna dive into the code of those extensions and see if i can find something. Prob is I need to chagne for just that profile, not the actual whole program which may be impossible to change for the process at startup (before extensions are loaded).
[Q]



I am using Gcal with Prism and it works fine in AWN. I have read that there is some ways you can get firefox extensions to run in prism with some hacking, and im looking into that too for gmail but documentation about it sure is sparce on the internet.

I know what you meant ;) But thats not what I want - It won't solve the problem -> it'll still launch into a separate task icon. My goal is to get the gmail firefox profile to launch As the gmail icon launcher and have that stay as the task.
[Q]



I don't know if it can be done with the current AWN and Firefox, but im gonna try and hack it to :)
[Q]



Took me some hacking and learning a little about mac os x application bundles to get it working in mac os x > and now Im gonna see if I can do some hacking to get it working in AWN.
[Q]



If only there was another way to set AWN recognizing tasks and such - but i hear that will be changed with 0.3 release. I may just have to wait until then.

Oh, sorry for the rude responce. Might want to try hacking from the AWN side, could be easier. And if you try that, I suggest hacking the stalone-launcher and taskman-applet (in awn-extras-testing) as they're newer and (I think) written in vala as opposed to C.

I just wanted to post that I solved my issues here. I used Prism for GCal which works fine. For Gmail, I actually discovered the wonderful program CheckGmail which the recent upgrade has made the program awesome! It is an applet in gnome-panel, and with its functionality, the only reason I need to open gmail is to reply to an email or search email, so I just do in my default firefox profile. CheckGmail solved my need to standalone gmail.
[Q]



I can't wait until the future of AWN when I truly won't need any gnome-panel :) (currently, I just have a tiny one in corner with a few things). Once AWN and applets are more stable, and if the notification area applet will work (and possibly some added functionality to a couple applets)(which in time i may try to help develop stuff) then no more gnome-panel at all. THat would rule!

any update on this? I have multiple firefox profiles (one for gmail, rtm and google calendar and the other for just standard browsing) and I'd like to have one be visible on all workspaces and the other be just on the current.

This is interesting to me...why are people doing this? Is it in order to treat Gmail/GCal/Rtm as separate desktop-like applications?
[Q]



What purpose do the profiles serve? Just to allow for different homepages, which are the respective desired web pages?

Well, I use different profiles for a few reasons. One being that I do a lot of web development, so I have one profile with all my web dev extensions and the other profile is very minimalistic and I only use it for gmail,rtm,gcal (open in separate tabs). The other reason is my 2nd profile I have shown on all workspaces where the other profile I just show up on my web dev workspace. It's also nice when the web dev profile crashes, the other profile keeps running.

Thanks, I really had no idea of the use cases for multiple profiles. Makes sense!
