[script] Right click open map in Nexuiz with Gnome (Ubuntu)

[-z-]

Last night fabzor had asked me a question about opening maps with Nexuiz via a script... eventually it got out that he wanted to be able to right click a pk3 or bsp and load it with Nexuiz.

I whipped up the following and thought I'd share it with you all:

Open up the terminal and type the following to create the script that's going to run off the right click, and give it executable permissions.

Code:

cd "$HOME/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts" && touch "Open Nexuiz Map" && chmod +x "Open Nexuiz Map" && gedit "Open Nexuiz Map" &

Your text editor will pop up. Paste the following code and set the variables to match your settings.

Code:

#!/bin/bash
# Set variables
nexuizdir="/home/tyler/svn_software/nexuiz/nexuiz_25"
nexuizbin="nexuiz-linux-x86_64-glx"

if [[ "$(echo $1|awk -F . '{print $NF}')" == "pk3" ]]; then
    # Find the name of the bsp
    mapname=$(unzip -l $1 | grep .bsp | awk '{ print $4 }' | sed 's/maps\/\([A-Za-z_0-9.-]*\)\.bsp/\1/' | grep -vi .bsp)
fi

if [[ "$(echo $1|awk -F . '{print $NF}')" == "bsp" ]]; then
    mapname=$(basename $1 .bsp)
fi

# Run it
$nexuizdir/$nexuizbin -basedir $nexuizdir +map $mapname

In your terminal again, open your Nexuiz data directory:

Code:

nautilus ~/.nexuiz/data

Now right click a map >> scripts >> Open Nexuiz Map


You can also right click open bsp's in your ~/.nexuiz/data/maps folder :)


For your commandline junkies, you can add a little alias as a convenience:

Code:

gedit $HOME/.bashrc

Add the following (with your path) to the bottom your your bashrc):

Code:

alias nexmap='"/home/tyler/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/Open Nexuiz Map"'

Save and close, type:

Code:

bash

to enter a new bash session.

Code:

cd ~/.nexuiz/data
nexmap <mapname.pk3>

to open it from the command line
