Transmit 4 Favorites Workflow, FAST

[deanishe]

The workflow is throwing an error for me. 

  #<NoMethodError: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass>
  /Volumes/Users/XXX/Dropbox/Config/Alfred 2/Alfred.alfredpreferences/workflows/user.workflow.C1317428-1511-401C-A41B-FE46B52EC364/transmit.rb:65:in `block in cache_xml' 

I did a bit of debugging, and it's choking on an open access FTP site that has no username. The error is caused by:

'username' => fav['attribute'].detect { |attr| attr['name'] == 'username' }['content']

I'm not familiar enough with Ruby to fix the error, but the workflow shouldn't assume favourites have usernames because they don't always require them.

[deanishe]

Any chance the bug might get fixed?

[ramiro.araujo]

wooops, I've missed your previous comment. I don't usually use FTP accounts without username

I'll check it

cheers

[deanishe]

I'd appreciate it. I had a crack at doing it myself, but I haven't used Ruby since before gems and rake and bundler, and I couldn't even get it to run

[ramiro.araujo]

ok, looks corrected, please let me know https://github.com/ramiroaraujo/alfred-transmit-workflow

cheers

[deanishe]

It loads my favourites super fast now! Thanks very much!

I have tested this and found it extremely useful! Thank you so much for this workflow - I do not know of any faster way to connect via ftp than this. This is amazing. 

 

Since I saw how excellent this is working, I was wondering if there would not be a possibility to have a similar workflow setup for coda 2 from panic. Since these are the same favories. And I sure would appreciate to connect just as fast to the websites with the live editor via coda 2 as it is now possible to connect via transmit in light speed, thanks to your plugin. 

 

Ah - I just saw other Transmit workflows as well - and will post there too. I really hope someone was already thinking about this, or maybe there is a workflow for coda 2 already out there. I so I would really appreciate getting in touch. 

 

Looking very much forward to your answer.

Okay, I just tried installing the script and got the following errors.  I am using Alfred 2.8 and Transmit 4.4.8.  OS is Yosemite (10.10.5)

 

Starting debug for 'Transmit'

Hello, any chances of update this workflow to work with newest transmit 5?

[V2n]

not working after HighSierra uprade

[2017-10-17 11:01:39][ERROR: input.scriptfilter] Code 1: /System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/2.3/usr/lib/ruby/2.3.0/rubygems/core_ext/

macOS High Sierra v10.13

Alfred v3.5 [876]

Transmit 4.4.13

 

I'm syncing Alfred prefs via Dropbox .. if it might have anything to do with those "cannot load such file" errors 

 

Any ideas? Thanks

[deanishe]

The problem is that High Sierra has a different version of Ruby, so the workflow is looking in the wrong directory for its gems.

 

You need to dig around in the workflow and rename the directory the gems are in to match the version number of your installed Ruby (2.3.0).

 

That should fix it. 

[V2n]

fixed! thanks @deanishe

Okay I don't get it. Can you help me to work this out?

Would it be possible that you share the solution, I'd love to get this fixed. Perhaps share the code you changed, or even all of it and I can run a diff to discover and let everyone else know how to fix, thanks.

Can you provide some additional details about this issue please.

Thank you for sharing. Works perfect.

[Sridhar Katakam]

I renamed 2.0.0 to 2.4.1 which is the version number of ruby installed on my Mac and restarted Alfred. Still no dice.

[robdbirch]

@Sridhar Katakam Even though you have 2.4.1 I think it still needs to be 2.4.0. I know, not exactly intuitive.

Did this. Still doesn't work.

[robdbirch]

If your running MacOS High Sierra the system Ruby is 2.3 not 2.4.

That does fix this a bit. My Transmit favorites do appear in Alfred. But launching any of them does not actually connect to that FTP server in Transmit.

 

Does it work for you?

Here's a Transmit 5 workaround that simulates the old Transmit 4 workflow. Not perfect, but super handy!
