How to open Firefox about:reader?url=example.com with Intent on Android
I'm a trying to open a webpage on an android application, the url sheme is a bit special it has to open an url in reader mode : about:reader?url=example.com
about:reader?url=example.com
I am doing it this way
Uri intentUri = new Uri.Builder().encodedPath("about:reader")
.appendQueryParameter("url", Uri.encode("example.com"))
.build();
// Try to open in Firefox If available or use default
Intent intent=new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setData(intentUri);
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
intent.setPackage("org.mozilla.firefox");
try {
getApplicationContext().startActivity(intent);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException ex) {
intent.setPackage(null);
getApplicationContext().startActivity(intent);
}
And i get E/AndroidRuntime: FATAL EXCEPTION: main
Caused by: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=about:reader?url=http://example.com
Caused by: android.content.ActivityNotFoundException: No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW dat=about:reader?url=http://example.com
Is there a way to achieve this ?
