Empty option always returned

[parrado]

i am creating a workflow that returns an array of items but there is always an empty option on top of all the results with an A icon there, is this norma? ow can I get rid of this?

Welcome @parrado,

 

Please share your workflow (transfer.sh is good temporary storage) as it’s impossible to say without looking at your code.

Sure, it is here https://file.io/ViyugQnRU8Do

I do mean the workflow. Preferably stripped down to just the necessary parts to reproduce. That’s just a JavaScript file, it doesn’t allow proper inspecting. Also, what’s the debugger output from your case above?

Sorry, This would be the workflow exported https://file.io/SsCbwBP0sXsa, the output of that js would be this one:

That link says the transfer has been deleted.

From that debugger output I see nothing wrong. The most likely explanation is that you have another Keyword/Script Filter/something which also uses vs as the keyword and you’re seeing output from both workflows.

I am working on a very similar workflow. If it helps, here is my filter script:

 

import json
import sys
from pathlib import Path

try:
    query = sys.argv[1]
except IndexError:
    query = None

data = {
    'items': []
}

dirs_to_check = [
    '~/projects/personal',
    '~/projects/work',
]

for dir in dirs_to_check:
    for i in Path(dir).expanduser().iterdir():
        if i.name in ['.git', '.DS_Store']:
            continue
        if query:
            if query.lower() not in i.name.lower():
                continue
        data['items'].append({
            'title': i.name,
            'subtitle': f"Open: {str(i)}",
            'arg': str(i)
        })


sys.stdout.write(json.dumps(data))

I had another workflow overlapping with the same keyword as @vitor suggested, I am reading folders inside a Path to open them on VSCode when clicked. I think it can be very powerful when dealing when lots of different repos. Do you know how can it get published to appear in alfred workflows page @vitor ?
