Pin Plus — Interact with your Pinboard bookmarks

[Pyetro]

Sure, you can download it here, but it require a valid email address to log in. In the meanwhile you can join the waiting list in order to test it, they are sending invitation quite fast.

 

thanks in advance Vitor!

Not an issue, I don’t even need to open it to see the AppleScript dictionary.

In that case they should have access to a rich AppleScript dictionary. Yet it seems they don’t implement it. That’s something which needs to be fixed on their side; until they have an AppleScript dictionary, it is technically impossible to support the browser.

[Pyetro]

Thanks for digging into it.

I'll try to get in touch with them trying to speed up their implementation.

Update.

Added support for Vivaldi and Brave. I’ve skipped Opera since while we can get the URL and Title from a tab, we can’t execute JavaScript (to run the bookmarklet to add bookmarks). The capability seems to be there (being Chromium-based) but not a way of turning it on.

To update, download the latest version (same URL) or wait a few days and it’ll prompt you to on next usage, since it uses OneUpdater.

Hi,

`Pa` keyword doesn't fire up a PinPlus bookmark gui on Brave. What am I missing?

[vitor]

Open the debugger, set the log output to “All Information”, perform the failing action, and post the output.

@vitor love new color of the pins!

Updated to 2022.3.

Workflow is now distributed via the Alfred Gallery. Download the new version from there or update directly from Alfred.

• New repository.
• New icon.
• New About.
• Add configurable keywords.
• Convert Workflow Environment Variables into Workflow Configuration.
• Add API key setting to Workflow Configuration.
• Remove OneUpdater in favour of Gallery updating.

Pin Plus seems to have broken for me. Maybe with my recent update to macOS 13.1 (I was on macOS 12 until a few days ago).

 

I tried updating to the latest version 2022.3 (updated through user gallery) 

 

My Safari is configured with:

✔ Allow JavaScript from Apple Events

 

With Safari frontmost, when I attempt a "PA" action, nothing happens and I get the following in Alfred's debugger:
 

[02:26:52.072] Pin Plus[Hotkey] Processing complete
[02:26:52.079] Pin Plus[Hotkey] Passing output '' to Run Script
[02:26:52.420] Pin Plus[Run Script] Processing complete
[02:26:52.426] Pin Plus[Run Script] Passing output 'null
' to Run Script
[02:26:56.978] Pin Plus[Keyword] Processing complete
[02:26:56.987] Pin Plus[Keyword] Passing output '' to Run Script
[02:26:57.306] Pin Plus[Run Script] Processing complete
[02:26:57.312] Pin Plus[Run Script] Passing output 'null
' to Run Script

 

"PIN" and "PUN" keywords seem to be working fine, its just "PA" that's no longer working.

[vitor]

Weird. Could you check in any Chromium browser (Brave, Chrome, Vivaldi, Edge)? You don’t need to be logged in to Pinboard, though you do need to Allow the Apple Events.

[Floating.Point]

Vitor, I'm sorry but today I have been unable to replicate the problem, it's working again fine now. All that's changed since yesterday is that I've restarted my machine… hopefully just a weird glitch at my end / some kind of user error 🤷‍♂️. Sorry for the alarm.

[vitor]

Updated to 2023.1.

• Changed default actions for modifiers, but made them configurable.
• Removed keyword to force fetch. Now available with fn↩.
• Show [No description] and [No tags] when unavailable.
• Made launchd agent self-clean when trigger not found. To get this if you already have the workflow:
  1. Disable Periodic Refresh in configuration.
  2. Save.
  3. Force rebuild cache with fn↩.
  4. Enable Periodic Refresh.
  5. Save.

Note the above is not a requirement. The old agent was already pretty efficient so even leaving it there won’t make a noticeable difference.

It’s not available for everyone to download. If you send me the DMG, I’ll look at the AppleScript dictionary and see if it can be added.

Vitor, is there some way I can send you an invite code for Arc Browser so that you could try adding support? I tried messaging you via the forum PMs but it says you don't accept messages. I'd post the code here but it's only good for 5 invites and I'm afraid they'd get used up before you got to use it.

 

FWIW, I tried to figure it out and was going to submit a PR but couldn't get it working. I tried just duplicating the workflow and adding "Arc" to the "chromium_variants" line in run_bookmarklet.js but after doing so, the workflow wasn't pulling up the Add Bookmark overlay.

I have one, someone else sent it recently for another matter.

Thank you for the heads up, I’ll look into it. I just got one the other day so it may just be full.

That is because despite being based on Chromium, Arc’s dictionary is different due to their “spaces” functionality. If they used the same dictionary, it would have been a no-brainer.

[giovanni]

I must have some conflicting installation or workflow, but this seems to have stopped working for me? I see the bookmarks, but I can't open or assign modifier keys. I deleted and reinstalled (v2023.2 from the Gallery). Any suggestions? Thanks!

[vitor]

@giovanni After changing the modifier keys, you have to rebuild the cache (or let it happen on its own) for the changes to take effect.

[giovanni]

thanks @vitor, fn+↩ didn't work either, but I deleted the json in the cache and now it works. 

thanks for your prompt help!

 

PS: perhaps you meant these two below in the description without the ↩? 

• ⌥↩: View Tags.
• ⌃↩: View Description.

Indeed, thank you. Sorted in the latest version, which will be live shortly. I’ve also switched the cache rebuilding shortcut to ⌘⌥⌃↩ since (in another workflow) people mentioned how fn is inaccessible on some external keyboards.

[sepulchra]

Thanks so much for that change! I’m someone with a clackity keyboard that doesn’t send an fn keycode.

Updated to 2023.4.

• Add support for Orion.
• Add support for Arc.
