Finicky now has support for launching specific Chrome and Brave profiles. Huge thanks to @bhedavivek for working on this!
New features
- Chrome and Brave profile selection
You can now optionally specify a profile to activate when using Chrome or Brave browsers.
{
match: "example.com/*",
browser: {
name: "Google Chrome",
profile: "Default",
},
},
{
match: "example.org/*",
browser: {
name: "Google Chrome",
profile: "Profile 1",
},
},
A note on profile names
The profile name you supply to Finicky must match the folder name of the profile. For Chrome, the folders are located at ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome
. Folder names are called "Profile 1", "Profile 2", etc.
⚠️ Please note ⚠️ If you supply a folder name of a profile that does not exist, e.g. "Avocado", Chrome and Brave will create a new profile using that folder name. This appears to work pretty well, but I would advise against this since there is a risk corrupt your Chrome configuration. In the future, I want to add some verification to avoid this possibility, so it might stop working.
