Shell Script for Rumember - RTM Addon

[devaholik]

I am going a little nuts, I know I must be doing something wrong (since its not working) but I can't figure it out.

 

I installed and configured Rumember - from terminal executing:

 

ru pick up the milk ^Today #Personal

 

works just fine and adds to RTM.

 

I have then setup a workflow in Alfred that on typing 'r {query}' it would execute a shell script.  I tried to different methods to get this to work:

 

METHOD 1

ru {query}


METHOD 2

shopt -s expand_aliases

if [ -f "${HOME}/.bash_profile" ] ; then
	source "${HOME}/.bash_profile"
fi

ru {query} &

 

Neither method works, no errors , nothing in bash history just blank.

 

Any help would be great!

 

Thanks

Just at first glance, it looks like {query} should be quoted; ie.

 

ru "{query}"

Without that, it's probably only using the first word, ie. 'ru pick'

[devaholik]

Tried to do that just now both of the methods above and put the query in quotes, still no go

 

It doesn't even seem like its running the command.

Have you checked console for any errors? Also, what about the escaping in the script? Are those options set correctly?

[devaholik]

I tested the same script (method 2) in console script worked flawlessly.

 

No errors are showing up - unless there is a debug for alfred I can see?

 

Also i even tried to just execute a command in the script say:

 

ru "test adding to milk manually"

 

and that doesn't work.

 

I have tried with all the different options on escaping none seem to work, here is my setup:

I am pretty sure I am doing something wrong just wish I knew what it was

Why don't you post your workflow here? It'll probably be something really obvious (like have you actually linked the keyword input to the script?) and you'll want to bang your head on your desk. No offence intended, you should see some of my "D'oh!" moments.

Here it is attached, remember that you will have to install and configure Rumember ( https://github.com/tpope/rumember )

 

Gotta love those moments

And just to through a whole other side to it if you use regular terminal from alfred it works, i.e. 

 

> ru add to milk

[jdfwarrior]

Edited the bash script to run JUST ru "{query}" and it worked fine for me..

[devaholik]

Did that and no go here - nothing happens  

 

so now the question is how do we debug the issue on my machine?

Bit late, but just stumbled across this. Alfred doesn't know *where* ru is located, so edit your script to include the full file path, e.g.:

 

#!/bin/bash

/usr/local/bin/ru {query}

if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then

    echo "FAILED TO ADD!"

else

    echo "{query}"
