Workflow for Arc Browser

[caicailiushui]

Hello, fans of Alfred 😁.   Recently, I developed a workflow to interact with Arc Browser's tab and space.

https://github.com/QIanGua/Alfred-Workflow-for-Arc

 

## Demo

1. Listing all tabs then jump to one you want, e.g. `tabs`

2. Listing all spaces then go to one target, e.g. `spaces`

 

 

 

Refs:

1.  arc extension in raycast
2.  arc-control
3. alfred-browser-tabs

Welcome @caicailiushui,

 

At first glance I see a few issues:

• Please submit screenshots in the manner requested in the pinned post.
• There are no instructions in the workflow or repo.
• The name and icon are both a bit too generic in referencing Arc. Please make it a bit more unique. Something like Switch Arc Tabs would be fine but it does not have to be exactly that.
• The Script Filter has a title starting with lowercase. Please make it sentence or title cased.

Please let me know if you have any questions. I’ll take a deeper look soon.

乍一看，我发现了一些问题:

• Please submit screenshots in the manner requested in the pinned post.
• 请提交截图的方式要求钉在职位。
• There are no instructions in the workflow or repo.
• 在工作流程或回购中没有说明。
• The name and icon are both a bit too generic in referencing Arc. Please make it a bit more unique. Something like Switch Arc Tabs would be fine but it does not have to be exactly that.
• 在引用 Arc 时，名称和图标都有点过于通用。请把它做得更独特一点。一些像开关弧标签将是罚款，但它不一定是确切的。
• The Script Filter has a title starting with lowercase. Please make it sentence or title cased.
• 脚本过滤器有一个以小写字母开头的标题。请将其设置为句子或标题大小写。

Please let me know if you have any questions. I’ll take a deeper look soon.

如果你有任何问题，请告诉我。我很快会深入调查的。

 

 

Hi @vitor Thanks for your kind advices.  I have fixed most issues. 

But I am not sure when you say  "The Script Filter has a title starting with lowercase". Where is the title of a script filter,  can you give me an example? 😅

Edit the spaces Script Filter. The Placeholder Title should read Switch to a Space in Arc Browser. Note the different capitalisation. Or make it Arc Browsers - Spaces to be consistent with the other Script Filter.

The name is still too generic and might conflict with other workflows (there are others for Arc). Something like Arc Tabs and Spaces might fit.

 

For the screenshot, please follow the instructions in the linked post. It needs to have a shadow and no background. There are step-by-step instructions and a short video. There should be one for Tabs and one for Spaces.

Done! Now it should be consistent.🙌

Looks good to go! One thing: you currently have the workflow in the repo and an outdated release. Which method will you use for future versions? This does not prevent inclusion, but we need to know which method you’ll use so we can properly check for updates.

Both of them are the latest now. I prefer to keep the repo as the latest.

[vitor]

In that case I propose not doing releases, since that may be confusing to the people visiting the two, who’ll expect that to be the official download.

 

The workflow is now live in the Gallery at https://alfred.app/workflows/caicailiushui/arc-tabs-and-spaces/.

That's a good suggestion. Official download is better

So to clarify, which method will you use? Releases or updating the file in the repo?

 Updating the file in the repo. I have removed the release and recommended to download from the official gallery.

@caicailiushui Looks like you removed both the file from the repo and the release. At least one of them needs to be there so we can check when you make updates and reflect that in the Gallery.

Oh. I will recover the file in the repo. I once naievely thought  it can check the update from the repo commit.

I really like this workflow and use it now as my usual method for opening tabs
