Does his work with Bear 2?

I just installed the workflow and followed the instructions on GitHub to make it work with the Apple Silicone chip. When I type "BS" Bear Search appears for a second and then reverts back to Google search

@xilopaint Interesting. It works on other files.

@slyfoxTo get support you need to post the !diagnostic keyword output.

Diagnostic: https://pastebin.com/bPRcfxUD

How do I bypass the security warning? A click allow anyway multiple times and still get the same error when trying to merge PDF files.

@slyfox You have to install the missing dependencies.

Thank you. 

I tried to install and run the workflow and immediately got an error. Any idea how to fix this?

Reason: launch path not accessible

/usr/bin/php

Check that the selected language exists on your system.

If you're syncing Alfred's preferences, also check that all related workflow files exist locally.

Here is a more functional Siri Shortcut with a few changes.

https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/4b7a5e1350c045598ac4e0b78aadb934

Then just connect Alfred with the shortcut.

I previously used Apple Music and used this script to mark a track Unloved and play the next track.

echo '
(function() {
  var track = Application("Music").currentTrack();
  var trackDisliked = track.disliked();
  var notification = (trackDisliked ? "UnDisliked" : "Disliked") + ": " + track.name();
  track.disliked = !trackDisliked;
  return notification;
})()' | osascript -l JavaScript

I switched to Plexamp. Currently, my keyboard shortcut in Plexamp is set to "Fn+Pg Down" to mark the track as disliked. I need Alfred to also simulate "Next Track" keystroke, which is under F8 keyboard key on my Mac. Anyway to do this?

Is there a way to do more than one action with a contacT?

I am trying to automate these steps:

1. Choose a contact

2. Get firstName

3. Get lastName

4. Get email

5. compose a Calendly link with the contact's details in the URL

6. Copy URL to clipboard

Edit: A workaround is to create a Siri Shortcut that does the above steps and then have Alfred open the shortcut using Alfred Siri Shortcuts Workflow.

@Terminal

Thank you very much. I appreciate your effort and time.  I'll take a few days to figure out the logic behind the variables as I am yet to learn JS.

@deanishe I would rather stick to Java Script as I plan to learn it to become better at using JS and RegEx in situations like in this thread. I don't know any programming languages as I am just a power user rather than a developer.

I am trying to replace a Keyboard Maestro workflow with Alfred workflow. 

1. CMD+A to select text
2. Copy to Clipboard
3. Execute Find & replace
4. Paste back the results.

For step 3 my report will have this info at the top:

### Client Info

- Clinic: Advanced Healthcare
- Name: Mr. John Smith
- Date of Birth: January 10, 1980
- Date of Loss: January 10, 2019
- Date of Assessment: January 10, 2020

I need to find and set variables:

firstName = John

lastName = Smith

dob = January 10, 1980

dol = January 10, 2019

Then replace (content of the report):

NN with firstName --> ([M][r-s]\.\s)(\w*\s)(\w*) - group 2

XX with lastName --> ([M][r-s]\.\s)(\w*\s)(\w*) - group 3

DOB with dob --> Date\s\of\s\Birth:\s(\w+\s\d{1,2}\,\s\d{4})

DOL with dol --> Date\s\of\s\Loss:\s(\w+ \d{1,2},\s\d{4})

@Terminal

Through some trial and error I am trying to add another RegEx find & Replace but so far nothing happens. This time I am trying to replace "DOB" with "Date of Birth: January 10, 2020" 

All instances of "DOB" should turn into "January 10, 2020"

Also, how would you combine multiple find and replace scripts into one? 

#!/usr/bin/osascript -l JavaScript

var dobReplacement = /(\W|^)DOB(\W|$)/gm;

function getDateofBirth(s) {
	let dob = /(?:Date\sof\sBirth:\s)?:(\w+\s\d{1,2}\,\s\d{4})/;
    return s.match(dob)[1]
}

function replaceDOB(s) {
	s = s.replace(dobReplacement, "$1"+getDateofBirth+"$2");
	return s;
}

function run(argv) {
	return cleanup(argv[0]);
}

Thank you. This works!

@Terminal Almost there.

@deanishe Sorry, I'll be more specific.

input:

Mr. John Smith
Mr. XX goes to town.

Output:

Mr. John Smith

Mr. Smithgoes to town.

Javascript used

#!/usr/bin/osascript -l JavaScript

var replacements = [

];

var nameReplacement = /(\W|^)XX(\W|$)/gm;

function getName(s) {
	let lastname = /(?:[M][r-s]\.\s)(?:\w+)(\s\w*)/;
    return s.match(lastname)[1]
}

function cleanup(s) {
	replacements.forEach(function(l) {
		s = s.replace(l[0], l[1]);
	});
	s = s.replace(nameReplacement, getName(s));
	return s;
}

function run(argv) {
	return cleanup(argv[0]);
}

Can I also ask (trying to understand)

1. Why do we need line 2-5? Can't we just start with line

var nameReplacement = /(\W|^)XX(\W|$)/gm;

2. return s.match(lastname)[1] --> Why is there a number 1 rather then number 3? I thought that the last name will be group $3 in RegEx

Not super familiar with JS. Does this work?

 

var replacements = [
    // (\W|^) matches non-word character or start
    // (\W|$) matches non-word character or end
    // $1 and $2 are the first and second match groups,
    // where a match group is whatever matches the contents

    /(\W|^)XX(\W|$)/gm,

    return s;

function run(sb) {
    return cleanReport(sb);

It does not.  

I am trying to figure out how to convert a simple Keyboard Maestro (KM) text manipulation workflow into Drafts action. Please note that I don't know Java Script but perhaps with some examples, I can figure out the basics principles of RegEx Find & Replace in Javascript.

A plain text document contains an instance of "Mr. John Smith" (name varies) The rest of the document refers to the client as Mr. XX. My KM workflow copies text to clipboard and then runs the RegEx with variables.

`/([M][r-s]\.\s)(\w*\s)(\w*)/g;`

Where:

Group 1 = Mr.
Group 2 = John
Group 3 = Smith

Group 2 is set to variable FirstName
Group 3 is set to variable LastName

I then tell KM to replace all instances of XX with LastName variable.

Based on the solution in this forum post for Find & Replace as well as as this forum post - https://forums.getdrafts.com/t/regex-find-and-replace-with-variables/6294/11?u=slyfox

I tried to figure this out myself but it does not seem to be working.

Can you please advise how to make this work?

#!/usr/bin/osascript -l JavaScript
var replacements = [
    // (\W|^) matches non-word character or start
    // (\W|$) matches non-word character or end
    // $1 and $2 are the first and second match groups,
    // where a match group is whatever matches the contents
    // of a pair of parentheses.
    [/(\W|^)XX(\W|$)/gm, '$1/([M][r-s]\.\s)(\w*\s)(\w*)/)[3]$2'],
];
function feminise(s) {
    replacements.forEach(function(l) {
        s = s.replace(l[0], l[1]);
    });
    return s;
}
function run(argv) {
    return cleanReport(argv[0]);
}

This I know. I was under the impression that this formula can be included into "Arg and Var" utility somehow to do the calculation inside the workflow.

Or this is only possible with a script? Not sure what I am doing here with a script though,. 

Got it. Thank you. 

Where specifically in the Argument and Variables Utility should I enter the math formula? "=round({query}/10)"

Here is 2 examples... If you don't want to do some scripting, the first example could be great to easily add a formula by modifying the "Arg and Vars" object (can duplicate to make more math functions). The second one is nicer if you prefer to have a direct feedback on the number you input

Best!

Can you please show a screenshot where exactly to add the math formula to "Arg and Vars" as the link is dead? 

@deanishe

Thank you for the script. It works. Any idea why when the new content is pasted, there is a new line at the bottom whereas the original content does not have a new line?

There is a space after “He “ and “She “
