drgrib Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I've created a new Bear Alfred workflow here:https://github.com/drgrib/alfred-bear It is faster compared to the current Bear Alfred workflow because it is written in Go instead of Python and has optimized SQL queries. It also adds tag searching and autocompletion, link pasting, and clipboard content to note on creation. I do appreciate the author of the original Bear Alfred workflow because I started mine from his design. 40-02, Shark.Formax, rob213 and 6 others 5 4 Link to comment
mattjabbar Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 This is a very neat idea! Unfortunately when I try to search anything using the 'bs' shortcut I get a Mac OS popup telling me that "search" is from an unidentified developer and that I can movie it to trash the search does not complete. I wonder If you can circumnavigate this problem, it would be awesome to have a Bear autocompletion in the search. Link to comment

Its because its not signed, you can allow this app from the Security preferences Link to comment
jbs Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 This is great. But when I open a new note, it opens in a window sized to my entire screen. Is there a way to open it within the existing editor window, or at least in a window that size? Bear's default behavior when I open a note in a new window is one the same size as the editor.

vamp07 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 @drgrib I just downloaded it. I like it. I especially like bcs. Reminds me of Notational Velocity which I will always have a soft spot for in my heart. Link to comment
SpinalT Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Hi, Everytrhign works great, and autocomplete for Tag search is awesome (I have a large number of 'people' tags to keep track of) i experienced a few missing searches for Tags which have spaces: Returns results = BS #Area/Application Does not return results = BS #Area/Test Name I tried wrapping tags with #, but still no change. If i go in and edit tag to be 'Test_Name'. (BS #/area/Test_Name) then the results show. Perhaps, I shouldn't be using spaces in my tag names, but it does make it easier to read sometimes.

chrs Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 (edited) Hi, I'm a complete novice to Alfred and can't code. Have been, without success, trying to create a workflow that does following: Typing: bl 7 Would open Bear with @last7days filled into search box, in order to see only notes of the last 7 days. Edit: Found solution: Web search instead of workflow. Search URL: bear://x-callback-url/search?term=%40last{query}days Title: Bear last x days Keyword: bl Edited September 9, 2020 by chrs solution found Link to comment
40-02 Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Awesome that this workflow supports case-insensitive search for non-latin keyboard layouts! Thank you! Link to comment
Asor_Da Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 I absolutely love your workflow, thank you very much for posting it. I only have one more need and I hope you can help me, because I am lost in code/at coding. The only other thing I am looking for, is to have a shortcut key that opens Bear, opens a new note (not in a new window) and I can type my note. I have been trying to look at the code, I manage to connect the shortcut, but every time the Alfred window opens up first to ask for an input and I cannot stop this (or if I try to, nothing happens.) I guess it's not that complicated, but I have absolutely no clue how to do it. :X Whether you can help me or not, thank you all for your time and all your work here. Stay safe. Link to comment
40-02 Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Hey @Asor_Da, did you try setting up and using shortcut in bear? Link to comment
gloogloo Posted July 3, 2021 Share Posted July 3, 2021 I'm fairly new to Bear, but this workflow is pretty amazing! I was wondering if there'd be a way to add text to an already created note from within Alfred, WITHOUT opening Bear App. Just for quickly saving thoughts without any distraction on-the-go. The closest I've gotten is to use a keyword+argument that opens "bear://x-callback-url/add-text?text={query}&id=..." but no matter what it'll open the app and it kind of defeats the purpose of adding content without any distraction.

If you using url scheme you still open the bear app, but you can hide or minimize it Edited August 9, 2021 by afridho Link to comment
