Create a project using GitHub repo?


Recommended Posts

Hello, all.

 

I'm having a fiddle with Alfred 2's new workflows. I'm trying to create one that helps me launch a new project/website using one of my boilerplate repos hosted on GitHub.

 

I am running the following shell script but my repos are not being pulled.

cd ~/Sites
git clone https://github.com/nitrammit/Launch-HTML5.git {query}
cd {query}
rm -rf .git README.md 

Does anyone have any ideas? It works fine as a Terminal Command, but can I use this inside Run Script too?

The scripts usually don't import your profile so they don't know what ~ in a path is. You could try doing something like..

myhome=$(printf "$HOME");
cd "$myhome/Sites";

 

I haven't tested that, but I think that's probably the issue.

 

Let me know if that resolves the issue. If not I help you keep poking at it until we find the problem.
