The debugger message you just posted explains the issue in plain English. The top post expands:
 

Those instructions are also in the About section of the Workflow itself. It’s important to read those.

Okay I downloaded yt-dlp by curl

Now I have an error occurring with every YouTube video "url is invalid"

@ileonemil Please follow these instructions, as the first pot asks. 

Thank you and sorry. These are the following:

• Brew command not found (I'm on MacBook Pro M1)
• v21.13
• Alfred 4.6.1
• MacOS Monterey 12.0.1
• Every link since the problem is the keyword

• [09:47:59.384] Logging Started...
  [09:50:36.934] DownMedia[Script Filter] Queuing argument ''
  [09:50:37.151] DownMedia[Script Filter] Script with argv '' finished
  [09:50:37.153] ERROR: DownMedia[Script Filter] Code 1: Did not find "yt-dlp". You will need to install it yourself. Homebrew recommended.
  
  Alternatively, download an older version of this Workflow without the dependency: https://github.com/vitorgalvao/alfred-workflows/tree/c0d9c9313857676997e6e05d9dda65cfa5fcda6a/DownMedia
  
  Keep in mind that is no longer supported. It will continue to work until the (discontinued) youtube-dl no longer does.

   

Hi, on macOS Monterey MPB M1 2020 I can't use the keywords DA/DV. I tried to reinstall the workflow but nothing...anyone can help me?

That's a pretty weird way to do it, tbh. If the script runs in your shell, you should generally be able to get it to run in Alfred by specifying the absolute paths and possibly setting a few environment variables.

Yeah I'll try. I did that because the script uses two apis from different services and have to interact with another script to have some credentials. That way I only put that string before it so that I don't have to change nothing. Thank you very much!!! Have a good day

You should put your Python scripts in the workflow directory and install dependencies alongside them using pip’s --target flag, e.g. cd to the workflow folder (or right-click on the workflow in Alfred and choose Open in Terminal), then run /usr/bin/python -m pip install --target . package-name other-package-name

 

 

It sounds like you’ve installed a custom Python (with Homebrew at /usr/local/bin/python3).

 

Alfred doesn’t use your shell environment, so it doesn’t have your custom PATH etc.

 

The command python3 in Alfred always runs /usr/bin/python3. Make sure you’re running /usr/bin/python3 when testing your workflow script in a shell. Similarly, when you have multiple Pythons, you never know which one pip is connected to.

 

It’s a very good habit to run pip as /path/to/python -m pip

 

-m tells Python to run an installed library (it runs the __main__.py file if there is one), and a lot of command-line tools can be run this way. If you always run pip that way, you’ll always install the right version of a library in the right place.

Firstly thank you very much. I finally managed to do that in another way last night. I chose 'run script' and put it in bash, then I wrote this /usr/local/bin/python3 <<'EOF' - "$@" and pasted all the script next to it. That's a very long script but it seems all okay . Is it right? Thanks anyway for your super helpful tips, will use them for sure. Have a good day!

does this command work in terminal? what is the expected output? 

Yes it does and the output is adding some lines in a database in an app I use, using the API of that app

That’s why it isn’t working. Alfred doesn’t load your shell environment, so it won’t know about PYTHONPATH, or pyenv, or whatever you’re doing in your shell’s startup files to make your packages available. Whatever you’re doing there, you have to redo in Alfred’s Run Script. Think of it like the Terminal of a freshly installed macOS—there’s no configuration or customisation done, so you have to make sure to first load what you need.

 

Open the debugger, set the log output to “All Information”, perfom the failing action, and you’ll see exactly what’s wrong.

Thank you, is there a way to download Python modules so? I tried to open the directory of the workflow with Terminal, but pip said that the package was already installed....from the debugger I see that's not true so I think that I have to download the module in another place....Where?How?

remove the cd command, just python3 (or whatever works in terminal) and the absolute path to your python script

Still nothing...

It should work with the Notion app open. What is happening when you try to open a search result with the Notion app open? 

Okay I've just restarted Alfred and the Macbook and now all is on point, sorry for the mess I've done. Thank you for all

The recommendation is to use a run script object set to shell (bash or zsh), and the launch a python script from there as you would in terminal. this allows you to use a proper code editor for troubleshooting. more details and discussions here:

 

I've done all we said but it ins't working....

Hi, thank you. What type of action should I choose so? I see run script and terminal command, and in run script you can choose many languages, should I use python from there ?

Can you explain in more detail what happens when you press enter on a search result in Alfred? 
Do you receive any errors? Does it open a web browser (or notion app if you have that configured) with the result?

Hi, now I understand. I put the variable that makes the searched page opening in the desktop app to true, but it function only if Notion is closed, because it opens a new Notion window with the searched page. Is someway possible to use the workflow having Notion opened?

Hi! I'm searching a way to run a Python script using a Hotkey with Alfred. The script uses external modules so it isn't written with Py standard library. Would be cool having all working in background, no terminal windows opening.....

Is it possible??

Thanks

Hello,
Thank you so much for this workflow, it's a game changer for me ! 

I currently can't make it work though. I followed the information I found in this thread but I still have the same error message : 

 

Does anyone know how to fix this ? 

Thank you ! 

Pete

I think you didn't put the right token on the variables 

@wrjlewis Hi! The Workflow searches pages and all is right, but it doesn't open them....what can I do ??
