There’s no setting for it, I auto-stylise them via MarkdownTransform.

 

`code` does not work :/

Sure it does. I have been using it for almost a decade, as has every other user of the Workflow. If it’s not working for you, check the debugger. You know how this works—if you don’t give me any information on what you’re doing and what’s happening, there’s no way for me to help you.

 

The Workflow makes the conversion using the correct BBCode tags; the result os only visible when previewing or submitting the post.

Looks like I inadvertently removed the download and source links from the top post in the latest edit! Readded.

Here's Python3 version for those who don't want to download Python2 for macOS 12.3 => https://github.com/tbrek/alfred-workflow-gauth/blob/master/Google Authenticator.alfredworkflow?raw=true

I’ll add it to the table as an alternative. If it’s merged, I’ll update it accordingly.

 

Do note the default branch in your repository is develop and that one has the old Workflow. Anyone visiting the main page of the repo won’t be encountering the updated version. Changing the default branch is simple.

That's now done. `master` is now default branch. Also updated README file with the corrected link.

Looks like Alfred 5 breaks this add-on

 

After updating to Alfred 5 (and while using the Python 3 version of Gauth Workflow) the workflow fails.

 

Turned on the debug and the error relates to something called `readPlist` (I'm not a python speaker)... here's the error log:

Does anyone know what needs to be done to fix?

@glawrie Looks like you’re on an old version. The line from your error is quoted out in the version for download in the repo (meaning it doesn’t run).

Thanks for the tip - downloaded latest version and it works fine. 🍻

I am getting the same error as glawrie above, and I have:

• re-downloaded the workflow
• built the workflow from source
• switched my Python versions from 3.9 to 3.8 just in case

But I still see this in the debugger:

FYI Alfred v4.7

added Alfred version

Welcome @rda,

 

Double-check you download and open from the correct URL.

System: Sonoma

Alfred 5.5

 

The import of the Alfred Workflow: Google Authenticator is successful with Alfred 5.5, but when typing in "gauth " at the Alfred prompt, I'm only presented with "Add a new secret". When I try to add a secret after "gauth ", it shows a google search entry on the first character, then upon pressing enter, it opens a Google webpage in the default browser with the typed-in string.

The ~/.gauth file is present -- with appropriate rights -- and is populated with secrets. python3 was installed though brew. It used to work on Mojave with Aldred 5. Any idea what's going on?

[kyledenver]

Or, is there any other way to generate Google OTP with Alfred, i.e., other plugins?

Welcome @kyledenver,

 

When asking about an existing Workflow, it’s best to use its own forum thread. While it may seem that starting a new thread could give your problem visibility, it fragments the discussion and makes it less likely the author and users of the workflow (the people who can help) will see it. I’ve moved your post to the correct thread.

 

In this one, you can find a fork of the workflow by @TomekB, which updates it to use Python 3 (Python 2 was removed from macOS).

Thanks a lot for your help, @vitor. I wasn't notified on your input and just found it out upon refreshing the page. I'll try the fork you mentioned and write back here if I encounter issues. Cheers.
