iTerm Sessions

[madvas]

Alfred workflow to quickly select of one currently opened iTerm sessions

 

Just type “sessions” and it will show currently opened iTerm sessions. Optionally, you can type text to filter by session name.

Very nice!

I have iTerm2 version 2.9, not sure if it's supposed to work or not (the packal link says iterm3).

It shows a correct number of tabs/windows, but I only have that "bundle" command running in one of the tabs. Should it work with both open directory-locations and running programs?

Thanks for letting know. This was a bug, I just fixed it, you can download here: https://github.com/madvas/alfred-iterm-sessions

Thanks, it seems better now

 

2 new questions:

 

1. can it support panes? I'm using a lot of split panes everywhere

 

2. can it switch desktops if the iTerm window is on another desktop? Is that even possible to detect?

1. I added support for panes today, please download latest version

2. This should work out of the box

1. Panes support seems to work great.

2. I actually meant spaces and not desktops, can that work?

 

 

Another small bug report - the names get cut off (with a nice ellipsis prefix, so it seems like a feature) while occupying only about 30% of the available space.

 

EDIT: Also, personally I run a lot of the same commands (so I have like 3-4 sessions running called "npm (node)" and 3-4 sessions called "bundle"). Making them searchable by their working dir/arguments and not just the command itself would be really nice.

Nice workflow, would be great if it showed / hid iTerm (using 3) if only the hotkey window is available.
