Keywords Enable/Disable

[fschuermeye]

Hello, 

I have set a workflow/keyword for working. But when I am not working, I want to disable it automatically.

I have two commands "start_work", "end_work", in these workflows I integrate something like a variable "work" = true, and then the keyword should be activated and seen in Alfred Search Interface. And then I say "end_work" it will be closed to disable all keywords from that set. Without disabling the start keyword.

Is it possible to define something like this?

 

I can't find anything in the forum or with google.

There’s no option for it, no. You may be able to do it by having the commands directly edit the Workflow’s Info.plist, which would require some coding.

You can set keywords from variables (i.e. set {var:my_keyword_variable} for its keyword).

 

You could then unset the variables using PlistBuddy or Alfred's own AppleScript API, which effectively disables the elements. Set the variables again to re-enable the keywords.

Thanks for the Idea. I don't think about the Variables for this Problem!
