I focused on the stuff I use everyday to start with. Let me know what tools you would like this to support. Or better make a pull request with it.

@xilopaint Yes. Mind giving some help with testing? Since it’s not the method I use, I need someone else for feedback.
 
Replace the code in your OneUpdater node with this one:
# YOU MUST SET THESE VARIABLES.

It should be clear how to change (and to what) to make it work on another Workflow.

If you already have Homebrew, simply brew install ruby and you’re good to go.

True. Are you English, right? One of the greatest Ronaldo's performances I remember was against ManU in UCL when he was applauded in Old Trafford:
 
 
Unfortunately, that was not enough and Real Madrid ended up losing the match. I don't know why but I think the games of nowadays don't have those epic feelings.
 
Btw, what happens with the English team in World Cups? You guys seem to never display all your perceived potential.

Very nice thanks! Looks good too!

Things for Alfred

Interact with Things 3 using Alfred.

Download and Installation
Download the workflow file from GitHub releases and install it by double-clicking on Things.alfredworklow.

Usage
Use the keyword todo to show Things lists and action any of them for displaying the corresponding to-dos. Action a to-do to display it in the Things UI. Try the modifier keys either in lists or in to-dos to know other actions. Contribute
To report a bug or request a feature, please create an issue or submit a pull request on GitHub.

You can edit the title by yourself .

@xilopaint if you have a hotkey directly to a workflow input, you get the workflow input's icon on the right instead of Alfred's icon.

Pretty fast

Pretty fast

Done. Update to the latest version to get it (⌥↩).

There are two add_item() methods. Workflow.add_item() and Workflow3.add_item().
 
You're looking at the wrong one.
 

The best way to distribute your workflows is GitHub releases.  Doing it you can use OneUpdater which is a simple and convenient utility for keeping your workflow updated in users' machines.
 
 

Well, that was easier than expected. v1.6 supports multireddits properly (i.e. it remembers them) and user multis.
 
User multis work like this: r/u/<username>/m/<multi>/[<query>]

Oo. It even expands to search for threads inside the subreddit. That's so awesome. Much speed.

Done. Should now be much faster for filtering subreddits (though not fetching posts).

Right, I see what you mean.
 
Yes, if AW is told to install an update, it sets update_available to False. However, it will be reset to True the next time it checks for an update (24h by default).
 
IIRC, this was a deliberate choice. The reasoning was that if the user rejected the update, they probably don't want an "An update is available!" notification in their face every time they use the workflow. So they will be left alone for a day. (It also prevents AW from immediately checking for an update again.)
 
The problem is that as generally used, showing a notification as the first result requires switching off item UIDs, otherwise Alfred will apply its knowledge and move other results to the top. And you will no longer see what you're looking for as the first result in any case, which makes using the workflow harder. (The "proper" way to do it, imo, is to only show the "update available" notification if the query is empty, so it doesn't interfere with the results. But some workflows require a query.)
 
Essentially, the default behaviour is designed to avoid annoying users if workflow developers aren't careful about how they use the library because AW is aimed at inexperienced developers. AwGo (my Go library) doesn't do this, as Go developers tend to be more experienced. (Though some can't code for shit; they're just obsessed with speed.)
 
If you want to force update_available to be True even if the user didn't install the update, comment out or remove L393 and L394 of update.py. That will ensure update_available is always True if the remote version is newer.
 

?

Yes. The list of available releases is fetched asynchronously in the background, so the cached list may be weeks or months out of date when you see an "Update available!" message if you haven't used the workflow in a while.
 
So when you trigger an update, it first fetches the list of available releases to ensure it downloads the latest version.

Would it take a lot of work to include other chromium-based browsers (I'm a happy Vivaldi user)? Thanks for this excellent workflow anyway.

AwGo — A Go library for Alfred workflows

Full-featured library to build lightning-fast workflows in a jiffy.
 
https://github.com/deanishe/awgo

Features
 
Easy access to Alfred configuration, including populating a struct from workflow variables and persisting settings back to info.plist. Straightforward generation of Alfred JSON feedback. Support for all applicable Alfred features up to v3.5. Fuzzy sorting/filtering. Simple API for caching/saving workflow data. Catches panics, logs stack trace and shows user an error message. Workflow updates API with built-in support for GitHub releases. Built-in logging for easier debugging. "Magic" queries/actions for simplified development and user support. macOS system icons.  
Installation & usage

Install AwGo with:
go get -u github.com/deanishe/awgo/...
Typically, you'd call your program's main entry point via Run(). This way, the library will rescue any panic, log the stack trace and show an error message to the user in Alfred.

program.go:
package main // Package is called aw import "github.com/deanishe/awgo" // Workflow is the main API var wf *aw.Workflow func init() { // Create a new Workflow using default settings. // Critical settings are provided by Alfred via environment variables, // so this *will* die in flames if not run in an Alfred-like environment. wf = aw.New() } // Your workflow starts here func run() { // Add a "Script Filter" result wf.NewItem("First result!") // Send results to Alfred wf.SendFeedback() } func main() { // Wrap your entry point with Run() to catch and log panics and // show an error in Alfred instead of silently dying wf.Run(run) }
In the Script Filter's Script box (Language = /bin/bash with input as argv):
./program "$1" Documentation
 
Read the docs on GoDoc.
Check out the example workflows (docs), which show how to use AwGo. Use one as a template to get your own workflow up and running quickly.
 
Running/testing
 
The library, and therefore the unit tests, rely on being run in an Alfred-like environment, as they pull configuration options from environment variables (which are set by Alfred).
As such, you must source the env.sh script in the project root or run unit tests via the run-tests.sh script (which also sets up an appropriate environment then calls go test).
 
Licensing & thanks

The icon is based on the Go Gopher by Renee French.
 

Haha!
 
The Germans do that a lot, too. Almost none of them realise Mission: Impossible is based on a TV show, 'cos it was called "Take over, Cobra" here. And, there are about ten shows called "<name of main character> für alle Fälle". What a creative bunch they are.
 

Yes it does. Btw, it's a case in which the translation was made literally. In most cases the "translation" for the Brazilian market gives some really stupid titles to the movies.
 
"The Hangover", for example, was translated as "If you drink, don't get marry".
 
"Lost in Translation" was translated as something like "Matches and Mismatches" (the idiot was literally lost in translation).
 
They have to "translate" even a title that is a character's name like "Annie Hall", "translated" in Brazil as "Neurotic fiance, nervous bride".
 
A ~tech related~ case is "Fear Dot Com", translated to Brazil as "Fear Dot Com Br" (yes, as it were not enough ridiculous adding the "Br", the genius forgot to include one more "Dot" to make "Dot Com Dot Br").
 
So I think you don't have much to complain about the English movie titles. lol

Can it be a word? If you try canalizador you will have mostly plumber related videos in pt-PT results and mostly random results in pt-BR.
 
If you type the letter v, PT-pt results will display a hip hop Portuguese singer in the first result:
 

 
But not in pt-BR in which a trending Brazilian song (a terrible one) is displayed in first place:
