Creating Sub-Menus with Python Alfred-Workflow

[super_goat]

Hi All,

 

I was wondering if someone could help me with the logic of creating menus and sub-menus using Alfred-Workflow (http://www.deanishe.net/alfred-workflow/index.html).

 

So far i have a Script Filter which presents a list of artists. When you choose an artist i'd like a list of categories to show, then a list of albums etc...

 

My current project logic centers around calling my python script with arguments to generate the list items, i.e.: python script.py --artist "{query}"... etc.

 

I've looked through the alfred-workflow documentation and there doesn't seem to be any inbuilt way to do this, without a bit of a hack.

 

Thanks!

I handled a similar situation with a combination of script filters and reopening Alfred with their results in http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/4384-workflow-picker/ - also built with deanishe's python framework.  See also the pinned thread above:
