ctwise / alfred-workflows Goto Github PK

All binaries are links to your private website (I guess). They seamed to have moved though and there is no way to download them. Could you put them directly in the github folders here?

The binary download links return 500. Are there any alternative ways to download, such as GitHub releases?

There's just an empty plist and an icon. Perhaps you forgot to check some stuff in?

vpn-toggle folder contains remote-desktop files

I like this function a lot but the quit function doesn't work for me (doesn't quit anything might be something to do with my use of slow quit) and there's hide, get info, reveal in finder and a whole host of other functions that could be added. Alfred app has most of this is built in already so I was wondering if the result could be passed to Alfred itself so you can use things like hide, quit and maybe file search functions?

I like the idea of having my running apps show up straight away then I can either search for something else or do something with whats running

Hi! Thanks for your great running apps workflow. It works just fine but doesn’t show any icons of the running apps:

Is there anything to fix this? I’m running OSX 10.10.5 and the latest Alfred Build (2.7.2)

It would be great if with tmac keyword status immediately shows.
And action shows depends current status.

I am using Alfred v2.8.1 and this workflow started showing this error since I upgraded to the new OS. Is it only me or is this workflow no longer supported?

Looking at the workflow's files, it seems to me that the file get_recent_documents.scpt is responsible for the population of the recent documents from Apple's side (as opposed to Alfred's); also,
that same AppleScript file seems to look at ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.recentitems.plist for getting the recent documents.

The problem I'm experiencing is that this list of files tends to get outdated. If I compare the results from the workflow (which is based off com.apple.recentitems.plist) to  > Recent Items or to the Dock or to the dock stack for recent items, the latter two always contain the more recently opened files, as opposed to the former. Deleting com.apple.recentitems.plist and restarting the Mac seems to fix the update problem, but after that, the .plist file gets frozen in time again.

Are there any possible workarounds for this problem?

Not sure what the probelm actually is, as I’m not a programmer.
I’m just guessing that currently " " (space) is not treated as a AND operator?

Whenever I run it, I get no results (I'm shown my fallback searches). Here's the error log:

[ERROR: alfred.workflow.input.scriptfilter] Code 1: get_recent_docs.rb:11:in `split': invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII (ArgumentError)
    from get_recent_docs.rb:11:in `<main>'
[ERROR: alfred.workflow.input.scriptfilter] Code 1: get_recent_docs.rb:11:in `split': invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII (ArgumentError)
    from get_recent_docs.rb:11:in `<main>'

I found that on Sierra it was saying no pre shared key was found

I changed toggle.rb to be �system("networksetup -connectpppoeservice "#{vpn_name}"") from system("scutil --nc start "#{vpn_name}"")

This then made it work.

According to the workflow author, it is possible to show the Services menu items, but it is excluded in order to increase workflow performance.

So, would it be possible to have a separate script filter for searching through it? In this way, those who don't need the Services menu items can keep on using the original script filter and ignore the new one, and those who need the Services menu items can access it through Alfred at the cost of speed issues.

When I look at the run script in the workflow, I see the following:

password = `/Users/ctwise/bin/ppg #{max_length}`

Unfortunately I don't have your profile on my Mac ... ;)

Can you add the ppg file to the workflow, not use hard links, and re-release?

Hey,

Any chance you know the origin of your vpn-toggle script or could out a license file in your repo ?

Would like to make sure https://github.com/maxandersen/dk.xam.launchbar which contains a launchbar version of your toggle vpn script has proper license info.

Thanks!

When My VPN name contains Chinese chars the vpn_list.rb throws such exception

[ERROR: alfred.workflow.input.scriptfilter] Code 1: vpn_list.rb:7:in `split': invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII (ArgumentError)
    from vpn_list.rb:7:in `block in <main>'
    from vpn_list.rb:6:in `each'
    from vpn_list.rb:6:in `<main>'

I change the 7 line in vpn_list.rb to

    (name, kind) = entry.chomp.encode('UTF-8', :invalid => :replace).split('|')

fix the bug.

I am too lazy to submit a pull requests.... So hope you fix it in the next version.

Thank you for the VPN workflow. It really save a lot of my time!!!

Hey,
thanks for that IP workflow!

I just saw this great tip on nixCraft: https://twitter.com/nixcraft/status/490199917810298881
This will speedup the external ip retrieval (about 5 times faster)

Thank you for the VMWare Control workflow. It is really a productivity improving tool.

When I used vm list command, vmware.rb threw such error:

[ERROR: alfred.workflow.input.scriptfilter] Code 1: vmware.rb:49:in `split': invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII (ArgumentError)
    from vmware.rb:49:in `block in inventory_list'
    from vmware.rb:48:in `each_line'
    from vmware.rb:48:in `inventory_list'
    from vmware.rb:25:in `list'
    from main.rb:11:in `generate'
    from main.rb:22:in `list'
    from main.rb:128:in `<main>'

The inventory file "~/Library/Application\ Support/VMware\ Fusion/vmInventory" actually is encoded in UTF-8.

So the line 45 of vmware.rb should read inventory file with UTF-8 encoding.
From:

 inventory = File.open(inventory_path)

To:

inventory = File.open(inventory_path, "r:UTF-8")

Anyway, thanks for this tool, it helps a lot.

I often wanna create say a new terminal window. Is it possible to do that without first switching to the app and then using the workflow to create the extra window?

Thanks a lot for making all these awesome workflows by the way. They're really great 🍺

Hi,

I wanted to test this workflow but got:

get_recent_docs.rb:16:in split : invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII (ArgumentError)
    from get_recent_docs.rb:16:in <main>

Any idea what's wrong?
I'm using OSX mavericks in french mode

Thanks

Hey there,

The running apps workflow binary is broken, could you re-upload? 👍

Thanks!

Hey!

I've been looking for Alfred control of my VMs for quite a while and was really happy to find these workflows. For some reason when I run the start command it says "VMWare command executed" but nothing happens. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
