fatal: Could not resolve HEAD to a revision

That is the issue. Do git -C $(brew --repo homebrew/core) checkout master and try installing PHP again.

Hi All!

 

Suddenly ca stopped working. I have Mac Monterey 12.2.1 and have homebred PHP already after which calc anything worked for a while. I've updated PHP, reinstalled the ca workflow and looked everywhere but couldn't find a solution. Anyone else? I am not a programmer so hard to figure out...

@tiffanzsolti Post the output of the debugger.

This is one of my most-used workflows, but I think it freezes up my M1 MacBook Pro occasionally, when I start typing a number. Or when I try a basic calculation. Not something complex like a currency conversion.

 

Do you have any idea how is best to debug this?

Love the work flow but hate it uses php. Sure it's easy to get homebrew and add php. But it absolutely chews hard-drive space. Just homebrew alone is like a gigabyte. Just to get php? Ugh! Any alternative to this?

That is true. Php only installed over 39 other packages (dependencies) into my mac. That is insane.

Hello, sorry if this sounds stupid, but how can i add another currency that is not originally supported? I got the API key and is confused about what I should do next.

A new update has been released. This update includes a lot of changes and fixes, it should work with Alfred 4 and 5. If you are using Alfred 5 you can use the new workflow configuration window.

• New: Now the workflow uses the new Alfred 5 Configuration window
• New: Now you can convert from fiat currency to crypto currency
• New: Now you can convert from crypto currency to fiat currency
• New: Now if you convert to a currency code that it's both a fiat currency and crypto currency, the workflow will convert to both and display the two results see example
• New: Now you can use negative numbers for example -25F to C
• New: Now you can use numbers starting with dot for example .250km to meters
• New: Added new language: Swedish
• New: Added new option to configure the decimals separator to support multiple inputs
• New: Added new option to configure the number of decimals in currency conversions
• New: Added new option to configure the number of decimals in cryptocurrency conversions
• New: Added new option to configure the output format of numbers
• New: Added keyword _clear to clear all workflow cache
• Improved: Unit conversion works a lot better and the code was reduced a lot
• Fixed: Time keyword not working with certain PHP versions
• Fixed: Binary mode not working for data storage conversions
• Removed: Auto updater was removed as Alfred 5 will handle future updates
• Removed: The old key ca to configure the workflow is removed
• Removed: Convertor library was removed
• Many fixes and improvements to list them all.

I've submitted the workflow to the Alfred Gallery, we just need to wait, in the meantime you can try the latest version downloading it directly from https://github.com/biati-digital/alfred-calculate-anything/releases/tag/4.0.0

I tried to install and run the workflow and immediately got an error. Any idea how to fix this?

 

Reason: launch path not accessible

/usr/bin/php

Check that the selected language exists on your system.

If you're syncing Alfred's preferences, also check that all related workflow files exist locally.

@slyfox You have to install the missing dependencies.

Thank you.

Hello!

I just installed the Calculate Anything Workflow, but I get this error message whenever I try to use it. Can someone please let me know how I can fix it? Thanks!

Welcome @Rodrigo Rosa,

 

When asking about an existing Workflow, it’s best to use its own forum thread. While it may seem that starting a new thread could give your problem visibility, it fragments the discussion and makes it less likely the author and users of the workflow (the people who can help) will see it. I’ve moved your post to the correct place.

The answer to your query is at the top of the workflow’s Gallery page: use Alfred’s dependencies manager to install what’s missing. it should take a while, depending on what you’re missing.

[Rodrigo Rosa]

Got it - Thanks Vitor!

I love this workflow and I use it constantly.

 

With the recent bug of currency, I tried to delete and reinstall it but then I was getting:
"1 USD to EUR".

I ran

And that seem to have worked.

I just updated the workflow from the gallery.

 

[11:04:03.609] ERROR: Calculate Anything[Script Filter] JSON is missing expected keys; items, variables or rerunafter:
{"items":{"0":{"title":"You need to configure the API key for Fixer","valid":false,"arg":""},"rerun":false}}

 

You're assigning a boolean to the `rerun` key, but it expects a float. This results in no response item being displayed at all.

It's probably best to not set a rerun value at all unless I'm missing something: here and here.

[biati]

@zeitlings you need to set your fixer API key and make sure you are using the latest version (I've no idea how the gallery works) 

 

Other users have confirmed that this has been fixed https://github.com/biati-digital/alfred-calculate-anything/issues/134

 

If you need more help please create an issue on Github, I do not provide support here.

It uses the exact version you post in the releases. You can verify this by downloading both and comparing checksums. It’s not immediate, but considering @zeitlings has just updated, it should have been 4.0.5 because it was live in the Gallery two days ago.

[biati]

@vitor thank's for letting me know. Still @zeitlings if you require help please use Github, I do not frequent this forum, Github is the right place to get help.

[biati]

Hi Everyone

 

Please note exchangerate.host started to require an API key like a week ago, exchangerate.host was only supported to save users the trouble of getting an API key, that's not the case anymore so it was removed from the workflow. No other providers will be added as Fixer works and getting an API key takes like two minutes.

 

You just need to set a Fixer API key and that's all. You can find information in the readme https://github.com/biati-digital/alfred-calculate-anything

 

Several issues have been opened lately about the same error. Please just configure your API Key and currency conversion will work.

 

Thank's

[vitor]

Looking again at the output posted by @zeitlings, the JSON is indeed malformed. items should be an array of objects, not an object with a 0 key. arg shouldn’t be set and rerun should be a number, but those won’t stop the results from showing.

You may be getting more issues than normal because people are getting the message in the debugger but not in Alfred due to the malformed JSON.
