    MPD (music player daemon) client

    in Share your Workflows

    Posted

    Hello Dean,
    I don't know if you can help me, but I have the following problem.

    Is there a way, through the workflow, to "force" the system to download the song before playing it? My music folder is on iCloud/Google Drive, and when I play a song, the operating system tells iCloud or Google Drive to download the song automatically, but this doesn't happen with MPD.
    I am forced to go to the Finder and manually download the song. Is there a way to tell the workflow to "download the song before playing it"?

    I found this project that would be useful. But how to integrate it with the workflow?

    Thank you very much.

    Hello,

    After updating to Ventura 13, I have had some problems with the workflow and mpd.

     

    I don't know if you can help me because I don't think this problem is "workflow related." Let me explain.

     

    Previously, I used to put my music files in a folder synced with Google Drive.

     

    Before the update, when I added a file to the playlist through the workflow and played it, Google Drive automatically downloaded the file instantaneously and played it.

    Now, I can see the music file on the workflow, I can also add to the playlist,  but when I try to play it, it shows this error:

      

    ERROR: Failed to decode /Users/daniele/Library/CloudStorage/GoogleDrive-Daniele/Il mio Drive/DaniSynologyNas/Musica.nosync/I Cugini di campagna/I grandi successi originali/03 Conchiglia bianca.mp3; avformat_open_input() failed: Invalid argument

     

     

    Now, If I access manually to the file via Finder, and download it by clicking on it (or simply, playing it via finder, or right-clicking -> making it available offline), the workflow works perfectly.

     

    It seems like it couldn't talk to Google Driver/Finder to download the file.

     

    The problem could be simply solved by downloading the file properly before playing it.

    But How can I do this via the workflow script?

    The question is, how I can download a specific file on python

    I just reinstalled MacOS from scratch, installed Python 2. Installed new versione of MPD.

    SOLVED: simply, mpc was installed via brew, so in another dir. Need to specity the correct path for mpc in the workflow configuration. Thanks

    How to create a workflow as Metronome?

    You’ll need to do some coding. Either make the metronome yourself or grab a ready made tool. Place the code in a Run Script Action and trigger it via a Keyword Input.


    To stop it, add another Keyword Input to kill/terminate the process.


    From your other posts I recall you can code, so I’ll leave the exact implementation to you, though we can assist with particular details which pertain to making it fit into Thank you 

     

    Alfred for Windows

    in Discussion & Help

    Hello mates,

     

    for hardware purposes, I'm forced to move to Windows on my desktop PC. 

     

    Alfred I miss you 🙂  

     

    I do EVERYTHING with Alfred on Mac.

     

    There are several "emulator" of Alfred on Windows.. But really... they suck.

    They're thousands light-years far away from Alfred.

     

    Suggestions? Wox, Listary, Microsoft PowerToys..... sucks sucks sucks...

     

    Sorry for this post, just a personal  outing....

    Great!  Simply adding 

      

    wf.add_item(title, valid=True, icon=ICON, arg=title, largetext=title)

     

    Dean, I'm using your library for Alfred with Python and it definitely solved all my problems.  I learnt Python thanks to you. I read your code, and try to understand what your're doing with the code. I created over 35 workflows specific for my purposes.

    I have only to say : THANKS! Truly.

    Read all output line

    Hello,

     

    probably this is a stupid question.

     

    I have a script filter that read a file e print every line on Alfred.

     

    The simple problem is that is the string is too long it will be truncated.

     

    Example:

     

    The string "hello my name is Alex and I'm an university student in New York since 2008" 

     

    became

     

    "hello my name is Alex and ...in New York since 2008"

     

    Is there a shortcut to read all the output?

     

     

    Thanks

     

     

     

     

     

     

    [PYTHON] Problem to retrieve PATH

    in Workflow Help & Questions

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    I have a little script in python that simply check if a file exists.

     

    like this:

     


      

    import os


def myfunction():
	jpg = "Volumes/mydrive/image.jpg"
	png = "Volumes/mydrive/image.png"

	if os.path.isfile(jpg):
    	 return jpg
    elif os.path.isfile(png):
	      return png
    else:
   		  return "none"  

     

    The problem is that, if I call this script from command line works perfectly. But if I launch this same script from a Script Filter in Alfred it always give me "none".

     

    What is my mistake?

     

    Thanks
