Send Link
Send links via customizable context menu entries as GET requests (mailto: is also supported) in Firefox.
This is a hobby project by Bernd Bestel
-----
## Features / Motivation
I often want to forward links to different, most of the time self-hosted, services while browsing the web (for example, post a link of a YouTube video to my TV to watch it later). So I searched for an Add-on to handle this, found nothing, so here is one.
### What it does
It will add entries to the context menu of links on all websites based on the provide configuration (see the Add-on options page).
Clicking such an entry will execute a `GET` request to the configured URL while replacing `%%u` with the clicked URL (if the URL starts with `http`).
URLs starting with `mailto` will be just opened, so probably your default mail program will compose a new mail.
### Configuration
URLs, separated by line break, `%%u` is the placeholder for the clicked URL. Everything before a `|` (pipe) will be used as the context menu label.
Example:
```
Entry1|https://example.com?url=%%u
Entry2|https://example.com?url=%%u
Entry3|mailto:[email protected]?subject=Forwarded link&body=%%u
```
