This looks great and, assuming it's still running, I'm definitely going to install it.

 

I have a question: is it at all possible to tap into the "Apps using the most energy/battery" and display the top two with this workflow, too? That's really the only use the menu bar battery icon still has for me, personally. I know you can also more or less just use the activity monitor for such a thing, but I thought it worth asking.

Has this stopped working? If I select it it tries to start a Google search.

 

 

Seems to still be working for me. I've had that happen a lot with other workflows, though.

 

Eventually I learned to open the Workflows preferences, select the workflow in question, and click the spider icon on the top right to enable debug output (and changing the dropdown in the console to "All Information"). Then I trigger alfred, type the workflow keyword, and see what information it outputs in that console area. Helps me see if the workflow is bugging or even being triggered at all.

Opening Google search is just the "fallback" search, which means that the workflow failed to produce any usable results for Alfred.

 

This happened to me as well at some point with some upgrade. To fix it, just open the file battery.sh in the workflow and, around line 81, change

    <title>$TEMPERATURE° C</title>
	<subtitle>Temperature</subtitle>
	<icon>temp.png</icon>
  </item>

to

    <title>${TEMPERATURE}° C</title>
	<subtitle>Temperature</subtitle>
	<icon>temp.png</icon>
  </item>

So, probably some Yosemite upgrade changed a version of Bash, and that version of Bash chokes when the degree symbol is next to a variable.

Thanks, that fixed it for me.

Thanks, it works for me.

I'm still on OsX Maverick and add the problem with Alfred V3ß.
