Hi! I’d love to be able to view my Libib library in Alfred, but have no idea how to build that kind of workflow. Any ideas?

I may get yelled at for bringing this thread back to life, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to include Spotlight comments (kMDItemFinderComment) in the search results. Any ideas?

I've had a closer look at the code, and it is a Unicode problem.

Turns out this workflow uses are really old verison of alfred.py. Downloading a newer version from here to replace the buggy one should fix the problem.

Alternatively, you can add the missing normalisation yourself:

At the top of process.py, add import unicodedata alongside the other import statements.

Then in line 51/52, change if query_str: to:

 

if query_str:
   query_str = unicodedata.normalize('NFD', query_str)

With regard to the icons, filetype icons is all you're going to get. Alfred doesn't know how to show file thumbnails/cover art etc.

 

Changing the alfred.py to the newer one worked out perfectly! Thank you very much!

Do you have a solution for my last problem, about not getting an indicator bar and thus not being able to browse more than 9 items?

Thank you for your suggestions! Sadly, the first one did not work - it's still not letting me search å, ä, and ö. The second one did sort of work, but shows me the icon for the filetype ".delicious3medium". In Finder, however, I see a preview of the cover art of the file. See images for clarification.

EDIT: This can be fixed clicking cmd + i and dragging album art to each file, but it's a little tedious to say the least.

I love this workflow! Currently, I got it working as sort of a library, where I have Delicious Library files inside a folder and have this workflow searching inside that folder.

However, I have three feature requestsIs:

1. Is there any way to get Swedish letters working? å, ä and ö.

2. I'd love the ability to get the icon of the files to show in Alfred, instead of the QR logo.

3. I don't get the indicator and the scroll to browse through more than the standard 9 results. How come?

Cheers!
