Solved How do i fetch the list of active tabs in terminal
-
Hello, I apologize in advance if i am asking questions in the wrong place.
Basically I am trying to find a list of active tabs through terminal so I can grep youtube out of it and start yt-dlp from it. I want to make a very accesiblle simple button on my waybar through which I can run the script that will fetch the currently openened youtube tab and do yt-dlp on it. Previosuly I used firefox and there was another program brotab very helpful for this. Please help out this kid

@npro Oh, I apologize,
For some reason i had a false memory that it only supports firefox, I have installed it now and it is working fine. Thank you for the heads up. Now let me find how to resolve the posts status. -
@AyushVerma Search how you would to it for Chrome, apply it to Vivaldi. From what I could see you have to query the sessions storage. Probably easier to simply create a command chain to copy the URL of the current tab and create a bash script which works with the contents of your clipboard.

@AyushVerma you mean you have followed the installation instructions of brotab here https://github.com/balta2ar/brotab (including obviously the brotab extension) and it didn't work?
