    You are right.

    It does not still work via the Alfred workflow though.

    I shall stick with the Shortcut solution because I've set up the Shortcut to prompt me for the archive name so can choose it in each case.

    Changed the settings of the built-in Archive Utility to output zip files and then used the "Open File" action of Alfred.

    Sridhar Katakam reacted to Alexander Willner in Optimize Images   
    The workflow is already at https://alfred.app/workflows/alexanderwillner/optimize-images/ . However, it states "This workflow requires ImageOptim" which is not 100% correct. The workflow searches for various image optimisers in the path: "Please note that ImageOptim or related tools should be installed (e.g. via brew).". The tool "ImageOptim" just happens to automatically install most of them.

    Sridhar Katakam reacted to vitor in Assign keyboard shortcuts to keywords   
    You have a number of options, depending on the workflows and tasks themselves. The most obvious might be to create a new empty workflow, then add a Hotkey Trigger connected to a Show Alfred Utility configured with the respective keyword you want. So when you press the keyboard shortcut, Alfred will popup with the correct keyword.

    Do one pair per shortcut. Save it as a prefab for quick reuse.
     
    Again, there are other ways such as leveraging External Triggers of workflows who have them, but considering your specific request the above method should work for whatever you want to throw at it.

    As per the dialog, you can suppress it for the domain. It’s unlikely you can suppress it entirely, being a security feature, but take a look in Chrome’s settings.

    Sridhar Katakam reacted to andreas.w in Search and add bookmarks to Raindrop.io   
    There is now a new version of this Workflow, v1.7!
     
    The most important change here is that support for macOS Monterey is added.
    Apple removed PHP from Monterey (which has been preinstalled since Mac OS X 10.0 in 2001), so some changes had to be made to adopt to that, and you will also need to install PHP yourself for it to work in Monterey, which I recommend that you follow PHP's own instructions for if you have not already installed it.
     
    There is also quite a few more potential problems that are fixed with this update, so if you where having problems with this workflow before, please try again with this update and hopefully it will work better.
     
    There are also some new features!
    Bookmarks that you have marked as favourites in Raindrop will now be indicated, and will also by default be listed on top of results, and you can also now browse your Unsorted bookmarks the same way as you can browse other collections.
     
    Download from Packal or GitHub!

    Sridhar Katakam reacted to wrjlewis in Notion.so Instant Search Workflow   
    For those who love Notion.so (really great documentation & more tool), you will know how useful it would be to get instant search results from Notion in Alfred. 
     
    To that reason I've created a workflow that does exactly that, allowing you to search your Notion.so workspace from Alfred, showing instant results, and the ability to open the browser to your selected page.
     
    There are two env variables required (the notion search api isn't documented), these can be obtained by inspecting the network request from a notion search, as documented in github below.

    Sridhar Katakam got a reaction from Belfong in Send currently selected item to Alfred   
    I hear you. I am a LaunchBar user myself and use its Instant Send heavily.
     
    My guess is that 80% of Alfred users do not know what they are missing if they have not experienced LB's Insant Send.
     
    Anyway, for now, I have decided to make Alfred the primary launcher (⌘ + Space) and LB secondary (running in the background) just for its Instant Send.
     
    The issue with the KM workaround is that it only works for files, not text.

    Sridhar Katakam reacted to dvcrn in Ability to use macOS services from Alfred   
    I've been recently playing around with launchbar and switch back and forth between it and Alfred. 
    One thing I noticed that is pretty killer in launchbar, is the ability to use macOS services. Launchbar is indexing them by default and lets you use them either with normal text or files. 
     
    A proposal could be:
    Type some text (or use a workflow to get the selected text and propagate the alfred window with it) Hit CTRL Select "Use Service" (or directly suggest them) Hit enter on a service to use them  
    And the same with files. Hit CTRL and propagate the actions window with services that support the file type, next to workflow actions and default alfred actions
     
    I think this would make Alfred a lot more powerful without the need to create custom workflows. A lot of apps (the majority?) already exposes services, and being able to use them directly within alfred would be great. 
     
    For example, some workflows that I manually wrote that would be possible with a service:
    DEVONthink: Add notes or files Delivers: Add a delivery from a text string Fantastical, Cardhop, Things: Add new entry directly from text  
    Screenshot of available services enabled on my system when selecting text:

    Sridhar Katakam reacted to vitor in AlfredBookmarklet — Use a browser bookmarklet via Alfred   
    This workflow is officially deprecated if favour of Alfred’s Automation Tasks. You can find the old source on Github.
     
    Run browser bookmarklets from Alfred, without needing to having them installed in the browser itself.
     
    Note that you may need to Allow JavaScript from Apple Events in your Browser.
     
    1

    For the first step, get this template workflow itself. Though this is not strictly necessary (you can build it yourself) it serves as a starting point with most of the work already done. Proceed to open the workflow in Alfred.

    Next, get a browser bookmarklet to convert by copying its link address.


     
    2

    Run :cleanbookmarkletcode to clean the code in your clipboard. It performs substitutions necessary to avoid problems when pasting the code in the next step.


     
    3
     
    Open the Arg and Vars node and paste the code.



    Extra

    If you’re not new to Alfred, you likely won’t need these steps as you’ll know what to do.

    The template includes both a Keyword and a Hotkey nodes to run the code. You can delete either one by clicking on it and pressing ⌫.

    If you choose to use the workflow via Keyword, do not forget to set it up.

    Lastly, edit the workflow’s details and its icon. For completeness it’s pre-filled with my details. Feel free to edit them.

    Sridhar Katakam reacted to vitor in PinAdd — Takes arguments as tags, and adds your browser’s frontmost tab as a pinboard bookmark   
    This workflow is officially deprecated in favour of PinPlus. It was released to the public domain, so I leave the record here if anyone is interested. You can still find the old source on Github.
     
    Before using this workflow, you need to configure it with your Pinboard account by running :configurepinadd followed by your api token and your preferred browser.



    You can get the API token of you Pinboard account by visiting https://pinboard.in/settings/password

    Your preferred browser may be one of Safari, Webkit, Chrome, ChromeCanary, Chromium, or depends (“depends” uses the browser you have as the frontmost window, provided it’s one of the mentioned ones).

    An example configuration would be: configurepinadd username:HSJWJK2HHSKI14QPDOIK safari
    When you’re all set, call pin followed by your tags and/or description — both are optional, and descriptions must be preceded by // (two forward slashes and a space). Pick if it should be added as a regular bookmark or as a private one (this is important, as it’ll trump your default options), and you’re done.



    The title of the bookmark will be the title of the page.

    You can also precede your tags with . (a single period), and it will add the bookmark as unread.



    There’s also a hotkey you can setup to quickly add bookmaks as unread (without any tags or description).
    If adding a bookmark fails for any reason (for example, if the connection drops), you’ll get a notification and a PinAddRetry.command file will be added to your Desktop (if it happens multiple times, it’ll add an entry for each failed attempt). You can double-click this file at a later time to run it, and retry adding the bookmarks.

    Sridhar Katakam reacted to vitor in New Path — Make new files and folders in the current Finder location   
    Call nf followed by a file name (if no extension is given, .txt will be used) to make a new file. Calling nfo instead will open the files after creation.

    nd and ndo behave similarly, but for directories. Two important diferences: no extension is added, and subdirectories can be created with /.

    If a Finder or Path Finder window is the frontmost window, the new paths will be created there, otherwise they will be created on the Desktop. Use | to separate the names of multiple entries (surrounding spaces will be trimmed).

    This workflow is officially deprecated in favour of Thumbnail Navigation
     
    List the contents of directories, ordered by add or modified date. rda sorts from the most recently added and rdz does the reverse; rdn sorts from the most recently modified and rdo does the reverse.



    The list is auto-refreshed, making for a good way to track changes.

    To act on the selections, use the standard Alfred shortcuts. You can activate file actions, dive into directories, preview files, reveal in Finder, add to the file buffer…

    By default the Workflow searches in ~/Desktop and ~/Downloads. Change the value in the directories Workflow Environment Variable to use different paths, separated by commas.

    Sridhar Katakam reacted to caleb531 in Play Song - Quickly play songs, albums, and more from iTunes   
    Introduction
     
    With the introduction of Alfred v2.0, the built-in iTunes mini player is now the only way to interact with my iTunes library in Alfred. However, I would prefer to quickly search for and play songs without entering the mini player first. Therefore, I created Play Song—a workflow designed to make playing songs in iTunes extremely quick and convenient.
     
    Download
     
    Download Play Song (latest)
     
    Usage
     
    Play Song enables five keywords which allow you to search for and play songs in your iTunes library.
    In order for Play Song to function properly, it requires access to assistive devices. You can enable this for Alfred via the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences.
     
    Playing a song   To play an individual song, use the playsong keyword. Songs whose names match your query will populate the list of results. Choosing a song from the list will play that song once.   Playing an album   To play all songs from a particular album, use the playalbum keyword. Albums whose names match your query will populate the list of results. Choosing an album from the list will play all songs from that album (ordered by track number).   Playing an artist   To play all songs by a particular artist, use the playartist keyword. Artists whose names match your query will populate the list of results. Choosing a artist from the list will play all songs by that artist (grouped by album).   Playing a genre   To play all songs within a particular genre, use the playgenre keyword. Genres whose names match your query will populate the list of results. Choosing a genre from the list will play all songs within that genre (grouped by artist).   Playing a playlist   To play all songs within a particular playlist, use the playplaylist keyword. Non-empty playlists whose names match your query will populate the list of results. Choosing a playlist from the list will play all songs within that playlist (according to playlist order).
