I had the same need for a plugin. I solved it by using the opener plugin. You can see how I use it here.

Thank you for you reply, and it works for my plugin,but What I don't understand is, I need to set the package.json like you,add a 'browser' field:

 "browser": {
    "child_process": false,
    "fs": false
  },

So that i can use the opener.
Can you explain what does this config mean?

It just signals to webpack not to try to package the child_process or fs packages. I'm not an expert though, someone else might have a better answer for you.

I get this error TypeError: t.default is not a function when trying to use that now. any other solution?

You can use the openItem command. An example of its usage is here
