Domainr Workflow

[dingyi 6]

I just made a simple workflow to find domains quickly via domai.nr's api.

 

Hope you like it:P

Ooooh you took my idea. I was gonna write this but never did. Thanks for making it. I really wanted this to exist.

Has this stopped working? I installed it but it doesn't gather any results as the screenshots which you posted show.

I also just downloaded this and am having the same problem, no results. Is this dead for everyone now?

Hi guys, thanks for the heads up, I fixed the bug, turned out it has to use 'https' in api url.

Hi folks, it looks like this workflow has got broken somewhere along the line. I ran a debug and got this - can anyone help me fix it?

 

Starting debug for 'Domainr v1.1'

 

[ERROR: alfred.workflow.input.scriptfilter] XML Parse Error 'The operation couldn’t be completed. (NSXMLParserErrorDomain error 4.)'. Row 1, Col 1: 'Document is empty' in XML:

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in Command line code on line 24

 

Thanks!

Domainr changed the API url and the workflow doesn't follow the redirect. So, change:

$url = "https://domai.nr/api/json/search?q=$query";

to

 

$url = "https://domainr.com/api/json/search?q=$query";

Then it should work. You might get some random notices still when variables are empty, but you can ignore them.

Hi @Shawn, that works - thanks. It's been over a year since @dingyi has visited these forums, is this a workflow that you might want to re-create under Packal?

Great job! you just make me save some more minutes every day :-) Thank you.

As a policy, I don't want to submit others' workflows to Packal (even if I really think that they would be good to have up there), but if the workflow seems neglected and I can rewrite it for performance or other reasons, then I'm open to doing so. Maybe I'll do the latter. The workflow does throw quite a few warnings, meaning that it could do with some much better error checking. I did the same with the f.lux workflow...

[rice.shawn 221]

Well... I took a minute and did it. Here it is on Packal.

Awesome - thanks! I've switched over.

This is great, thanks for updating!

[rice.shawn 221]

No problem. Glad it can be useful again. I've avoided the workflow myself because Domainr makes me buy far more domains than I could ever need...

Love this workflow but it stopped working for me recently 

 

As soon as I start typing a domain, it just gives me Alfred's fallback web search options.

Unfortunately, Domainr changed their API. So, a rewrite is needed. The new version of the API also requires an API key, which means users will have to register for the API, etc... It's kind of a pain.

[miketheburrito 1]

Ah, that's lame. But thanks for the info!

I'm not sure if anyone else would be... but if you did like a gofundme or something I'd totally pitch in. I'd love to have this tool updated

I'll even promote it to some people I know who'd use it

dingyi's updated domainr workflow works great for me now!

Unfortunately this is no longer working as Domainr released api V2 and it seems that the old version is no longer accepting requests.

[flome 3]

If anyone is interested. I resolved the issues. It works the same, except now we have to do two calls to the API end point because we're calling two different methods. So it may be a little slower. I submitted a pull request to @dingyi to get the official one updated.
