Editing UserSettings.json

A typical UserSettings.json file looks like this

{
  "AppPath": "C:\\Users\\USERNAME\\AppData\\Roaming\\Hurl\\UserSettings.json",
  "Browsers": [
    {
      "SourceType": 0,
      "Name": "Brave",
      "ExePath": "C:\\Program Files\\BraveSoftware\\Brave-Browser\\Application\\brave.exe",
      "LaunchArgs": null,
      "Hidden": false,
      "AlternateLaunches": null
    },
    {
      "SourceType": 0,
      "Name": "Google Chrome Dev",
      "ExePath": "C:\\Program Files\\Google\\Chrome Dev\\Application\\chrome.exe",
      "LaunchArgs": null,
      "Hidden": false,
      "AlternateLaunches": [
  	{
    	  "ItemName": "Profile 1",
    	  "LaunchExe": null,
    	  "LaunchArgs": "--profile-directory='Default'",
          "IsPath": false
  	}
      ]
    },
    {},
    {}
  ],
  "LastUpdated": "22-Feb-22 2:22:22 AM"
}

Browsers Field

• SourceType - how the browser is added into Hurl (0 for from registry, 1 for User added) (just give 1 (number, not string) if you don't understand)
• Name - you know
• ExePath - The path of browser main exe file
• LaunchArgs
• Hidden - set true to hide it in the selection screen
• AlternateLaunches - This is an array .... see below

AlternateLaunches

This is a way to launch browsers when you have multiple other launch methods or launch targets... like incognito, browser profiles...

The snippet taken from above will let you launch a context menu when right-clicking on the browser

"AlternateLaunches": [
  {
    "ItemName": "Profile 1",
    "LaunchExe": null,
    "LaunchArgs": "--profile-directory='Default'",
    "IsPath": false
  }
]

• ItemName - The name that shows up in the context menu for this launch
• LaunchExe - Ignore (FUNCTIONALITY NOT IMPLEMENTED, keep it null)
• LaunchArgs - Launch args. You can keep launch the browser in incognito, other browser profiles...
• IsPath- (FUNCTIONALITY NOT IMPLEMENTED, keep it false)
