I’ve long enjoyed this workflow, but it needed a little love, and I ended up rewriting it in Ruby b/c I tend to prefer that over PHP.

You can find a copy of it in at jeffbyrnes/alfred-itunes-artwork-search on GitHub.

I‘ve tested all three flows, and they all appear to work well! It will work with the copy of Ruby that comes with macOS, and it works with my Homebrew-installed copy as well on macOS 12.5 (Monterey).

For an easier install, you can grab this fork instead:

npm install -g alfred-polyglot-fork

Includes the fix mentioned above.

Went looking for a workflow that searches Trakt & came upon this old thread. Seems like maybe something I can either refactor or riff on…

I went ahead & gave it Safari’s icon, so it’s just a wee bit nicer. Hope you don’t mind! You can download it from Dropbox.

It’s not an official release, but here’s my copy, modified to work with Alfred 3: http://jbyrnes.s3.amazonaws.com/Weather.zip

In case any of you are workflow devs, I’d point out the new Workflows Script Environment Variables, which can greatly avoid this sort of pain moving forward.

@stonefury, I haven't, but seeing as I do a bunch of stuff programmatically with AWS, I might throw something out there to list instances. What would you want to see?

It should be pointed out that something like this already exists: http://www.packal.org/workflow/packal-updater. Not to discourage, but don't want you reinventing the wheel if it doesn't make sense to you.

I'm experiencing the same isses as @RodgerWW.

@benklocek, that blog post helped me out, thanks!

As of Alfred 2.1, that path (/System/Library/CoreServices/Applications) is added to the default search scope. See the Alfred changelog for more details.

I, too, downloaded it, ran the `alfredfm <lastfm_username>` command, but no browser tab/window opened.

Glad you like the plugin Jeff.  I contacted the iDoneThis folks and I believe they will list this in addition to the plugin for Alfred v1 under their "apps" section.

 

I didn't have to do the above steps to make it work on Mountain Lion (which both my machines are running).  Can you confirm this is still needed?  If yes I can add it to the README on (Edit: github) bitbucket.  Thanks!

Yes, I have had to do that, and @alwaysunday seems to have had the same experience. It's possible that you'd already enabled sendmail at some point in the past for something else (some local web dev, perhaps?)

This uses sendmail, and is super simple, which rocks. For the folks on Mountain Lion, however, Apple tweaked things & sendmail no longer works out of the box. You'll need to run these commands to get it going again:
 

sudo mkdir -p /Library/Server/Mail/Data/spool
sudo /usr/sbin/postfix set-permissions
sudo /usr/sbin/postfix start

See this AskDifferent question for reference.

@TingTingBen, if you give it a moment, Alfred should realize that "pair" should trigger an action for this workflow; mine initially showed me the fallback search, then switched to the pair process.

Tremendous, thanks for this!
