Add support to run model-viewer as a cli tool to generate png thumbnails previews for files for the operating system.
For example, to create a thumbnailer for .bsp files:
sudo nano /usr/share/thumbnailers/bsp.thumbnailer
[Thumbnailer Entry]
TryExec=/usr/local/bin/bsp-thumbnailer
Exec=/usr/local/bin/bsp-thumbnailer %i %o %s
MimeType=application/x-bsp
Create the Thumbnailer Script: sudo nano /usr/local/bin/bsp-thumbnailer
#!/bin/bash
input_file="$1"
output_file="$2"
size="$3"
# Replace this with the command to generate a thumbnail from your application
/path/to/your/application --render-thumbnail "$input_file" --output "$output_file" --size "$size"
Create a new MIME type definition file in /usr/share/mime/packages/ for each file type.
sudo nano /usr/share/mime/packages/quake2-resources.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<mime-info xmlns="http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/shared-mime-info">
<mime-type type="application/x-bsp">
<comment>BSP File</comment>
<glob pattern="*.bsp"/>
</mime-type>
<mime-type type="application/x-pcx">
<comment>PCX Image</comment>
<glob pattern="*.pcx"/>
</mime-type>
<mime-type type="application/x-mdl">
<comment>MDL File</comment>
<glob pattern="*.mdl"/>
</mime-type>
<mime-type type="application/x-wal">
<comment>WAL File</comment>
<glob pattern="*.wal"/>
</mime-type>
</mime-info>
