Accessing Data Directory

[alexcory]

Okay so basically I'm trying to make a workflow that helps people quickly reference the alfred workflow directories super easily.  I made one partially already but now I'm trying to go a little further.

 

I guess I'm extending the Manage Alfred Extension.  What I am trying to accomplish is instead of hitting function to toggle a workflow on or off, I want to simply open the data directory in finder.

 

Is there an easier way to grab the individual data paths?  ie: {data} kind of like {query} but it would output the data directory instead of the project folder directory.

 

I posted this to stack overflow to try and get some help.  Thanks for any help you can give!

In the SO post you are asking how to read the string. You could make a parser or, since its a plist, you could just use the "defaults" command. So...

defaults read <path to info.plist> "bundleid"

That would read the bundleid in the plist.

How do I put that into my php?

 

ie:

 

$bundle_id = "defaults read " . $plist_subdir . "/info.plist" . '" bundleid"';

Sorry for being such a nube.  Just trying to learn!

I figured it out! Thanks again!
