    I think you are referring to what is already in v2 Preferences at: Features -> File Search -> Actions -> File Selection (hotkey input area located at bottom)
     
    Hope that helps, might have misunderstood. Most if not all of v1 is in v2 but on steroids.

    Enhorn reacted to simonbs in YouTube workflow   
    Hi,

    Just wanted to share the workflow I just created with other Alfred 2.0 beta testers. I hope that this is the right place to do so.

    The workflow allows the user to search YouTube and have the results returned to Alfred and then choose a video to watch. Just type youtube followed by the query. For example, the below will search for Rebecca Black videos.
     
     
    You can downloaded the latest version here and the source code is available at GitHub.

    Enhorn reacted to Andrew in AlfPT - Alfred Package Tools (Workflow Installer/Updater)   
    Hey chaps,
     
    I thought I'd quickly chime in briefly about a repositories / package tools, why Alfred hasn't created one [yet] and what you can expect if you create something for this purpose.
     
    Fundamentally, workflows can do anything, including potentially naughty things. Alfred provides the platform for these wonderful workflows, but due to the higher level of trust a non-experienced or non-technical user would have when browsing workflows originating from us, we can only currently provide a 'curated' stream of workflows (as per v1 extensions). Basically, the ones we promote are ones we are able to test and thoroughly trust.
     
    I have some ideas to address this situation in the future (similar to Apple's Gatekeeper certificates), but for now, Alfred isn't going to host an 'official repository'. This isn't to say we won't create, maintain and foot the cost for a reliable unofficial workflow repository (or appcasting style auto updating system) at some point though.
     
    If you are creating your own repos such as AlfPT, that's great! It's good to spread the bandwidth and server load, and also provide different or advanced features for the various repositories cropping up. However, it's worth noting that Alfred has a significant number of users (v2 will have even more so), so if you create a repository, expect huge peaks of bandwidth and server load around release times and when popular workflows get updated. Alfred can't help users with the cost of bandwidth as this opens the floodgates for others wanting the same.
     
    Cheers,
    Andrew

    Most certainly about a dozen people have done this already, but being too lazy to look these up I made my own 
     

     
     
    Use Keyword "cdh" to cd into your currently open Finder directory.  To run a Terminal Command , use "cdh [your command]". If there is no folder currently open in Finder, your command will be run in your Desktop folder. The Workflow will look for a non-busy Terminal window and use it before opening a new one.   http://cl.ly/NjL6   https://github.com/franzheidl/alfred-workflows

    Simple workflow to display the top 10 cpu-using processes. It can be downloaded from here http://tedwi.se/u/d6 or from AlfPT. It assumes that the 'kill' workflow (http://tedwi.se/u/cx or AlfPT) is also installed to provide process killing capabilities.

    An exceedingly simple workflow to browse your Safari history. Use keyword "history," then enter your search string (works by name or URL). Action a page to open it. I adapted this from an extension for Alfred 1, and so defer credit to the original author.
     
    Update: Unchecked a box so spaces are now allowed in the search string. Now available in the AlfredRepo as well.

    Enhorn reacted to tomhunt in AlfPT - Alfred Package Tools (Workflow Installer/Updater)   
    UPDATE by Vero (Alfred's mum):
    The AlfPT site was a pilot project for an installer/updater by Tom Hunt and is no longer available.
       
    AlfPT was a wonderful idea by an Alfred user, Tom Hunt, to create a way for workflows to be updated and gathered in one place. However, Tom has decided to take the project offline (due to school/work commitments and the bandwidth requirements of that project). As such, documentation in this thread is now outdated.
     
    Here's what's coming soon:
    - Other users are working on their own repositories for workflows
    - We are working on an official v2 Extras site, which will include curated workflows (which we've tested and checked) and themes
     
    We'll also be publishing a few blog posts with our favourite and your favourite workflows very soon, so keep an eye on the blog for the links to the above!
     
     
     
     

    The Unofficial Alfred Workflow Repository
     
     
     

     
     
    Hi all
     
    Introducing AlfPT - the easy way to install and update your Alfred v2 Workflows.
     
    Download the AlfPT workflow here
     
     
    Workflow Users
     
    Once you've installed AlfPT use the following commands:
     
    alfpt install {query} :  to find new workflows to install
    alfpt install {query} -a {author} -b {bundleid} : filter results by author/bundle id. Both flags are optional.
    alfpt update : to list any workflows you've installed through AlfPT that have new versions available. Select one to update.
    alfpt update -f : to list all of your workflows, regardless of whether there are new versions available. Select one to update.
     
    Workflow Developers
     
    Want to get your workflows into the repo?
     
    Visit the AlfPT homepage to register and start uploading workflows. 
     
    If there are any files in your workflows that you do not want to be overwritten during the update process (config files and the link) prefix them with an underscore e.g _icons 
     
     
    It's very likely that the AlfPT workflow will be updated regularly over the next few days so keep alfpt update-ing to get the latest release.
     
    If you run into any problems just let me know.
     
    Happy workflowing!
     
     
    Tom

    Enhorn reacted to brunogrande in Get Rid of Duplicates in Finder's "Open With" Menu   
    I've found that Finder's "Open With" menu can accumulate some duplicates over time (e.g., with WebKit's and TextMate's nightly builds). So, after searching for the Terminal hack to reset the database involved (source), I thought of creating an Alfred Workflow to avoid googling for it every time and to allow for a quick reset.

    Enhorn reacted to ctwise in VMWare Fusion Controller   
    I created a workflow inspired by the Parallels controller workflow. It doesn't do screen captures since VMWare requires a username / password to do that, otherwise it's pretty similar. It's on alfpt or you can download it from here: http://tedwi.se/u/d4
     
    The following commands are available:
     
     
    vm list - Provides a list of VM's and their status (running or stopped). Copies path to clipboard. vm start [nogui] - List the VM's that are currently stopped so you can start them. Optionally, if you add 'nogui' it will start them without showing the VMWare window. vm stop [hard] / vm suspend [hard] / vm reset [hard] - List the VM's that are currently running so you can stop, suspend or reset them. Optionally, if you add 'hard' it will force the action. vm pause / vm unpause - Get a list of VM's that are currently running so you can pause or unpause them. A paused VM counts as running. vm snapshot <name> - Get a list of VM's that are currently running so you can create a named snapshot of a VM's current state, 'name' is not optional. vm ip - List the ip addresses of all running vms and copies the selected ip to the clipboard. The vm _must_ be running vmware tools for this to work. vm revert <name> - revert a vm to the named snapshot.   2013-02-07 - Add icons (cribbed from Jonas Erikson's VirtualBox controller)

    Enhorn reacted to ClintonStrong in Debugging your workflows   
    Just wanted to share a few quick tips for debugging. If you're using /bin/bash to run a script, you can add "2> error.log" to output errors to a file. Example:
    ruby script.rb "{query}" 2> error.log  
    All errors will then be logged to error.log in your workflow's folder.
     
    Or if you want all output logged (perhaps so you can view the xml from a script filter), you could use tee:
     
    ruby script.rb "{query}" 2>&1 | tee output.log  
    That'll log errors from stderr in addition to standard output. Note that PHP doesn't output to stderr, so if you're using PHP you'll have to check PHP's error log instead.
     
    Also, if you have any formatting errors in a script filters' XML, Alfred will log it to Console.app.
     
    Hope this helps, and feel free to share your own tips.

    Hi everybody,
     
    On the one hand, this is an adaptation of an v1 extension I used, 
    Color Chooser by TDB ( http://plugins.ro )
     

     
    On the other hand, you can also copy some hex color codes into alfred and see the color itself:
     

     
    Which you then can proceed to copy as rgb values.
     
    The code for this is a quickly thrown together, horrible amalgamation of php, ruby, sh and apple script; but it works nicely

    Hey guys, I'll be away from the Mac for a few days so I can't look into this myself, but here's a quick thought/question. Currently, when importing a workflow, Alfred generates some random numbered folder, if however it would generate a folder base on the workflow name, this could be done which great ease using git.
    Just include and action in the workflow to issue a git update and pull anything that had change, no need to download the whole workflow again. Feasible? Totally absurd? Let me know.

    Enhorn reacted to derfla in Github command bar   
    It works similar to the GitHub command bar and to its update, the keyword is "gh" (example: "gh github/gollum issues").
     
    With enter you can open the entry in your default browser. If you just want to copy the URL of a repo/user/issue, hit cmd+c on an entry. Hit cmd+enter to paste the URL to the front most app. With shift or cmd+y you can open the URL in QuickLook.
     
    You have to login (gh > login <user>) before you can use the workflow. The login command opens a dialog box for the password. The workflow does not save the plain password, only a cookie for the login.
