Description:
I am working on the official IINA plugin
Online Mediaand found out that there's no way in the plugin API to distinguish between executables having the same name on the system$PATHand IINA's executable directory - in my case - it isyoutube-dl.The
JavascriptAPIUtils.findInPathsearches in, both, system$PATHand IINA's executable directory (IINA.app/Contents/MacOS/).More than overcoming this limitation of the API, I think prefixing the executable name with "iina-" to give it a specialised name is a more appropriate solution.
NOTE: (I am forced to make this PR as I need this distinction for the plugin work I am doing) I don't know the Swift language, nor
libmpv. This PR could be flat out wrong and broken, and I am extremely sorry for that if that's the case. Please bear with me.
