To show or hide apps in search results

Open settings.json in your data directory.

To show only some specific apps in the search results list them in show_only_apps parameter:

{
  "__workflow_last_version": "1.3.0",
  "show_only_apps": [
    "Alfred",
    "Mac OSX",
    "Terminal"
  ]
}

All other apps would be hidden then.

To hide some apps in the search results list them in hide_apps parameter:

{
  "__workflow_last_version": "1.3.0",
  "hide_apps": [
    "Microsoft Word",
    "Video Speed Controller chrome extension"
  ]
}

To find your settings.json or custom.json file

Open cheatsheet in Alfred and look for customize your cheatsheet. Open that and that should open the folder with your settings.json and custom.json file.

alfred-workflow-cheatsheet's Issues

Typos in src/apps/macosx.py

"view the front app but hide all other apps":"⌘⌥H",

"close all windows of the app":"⌘⌥W",

Capital letters after the opening quotes are missing.

Hoist up customize/new update feature in search results

Right now in both global and normal search, the reminder to be able to customize or if there's a new update are no longer on top of the search results because of #8.

We want to keep this change of order by most frequently used. So the best solution is to keep customize/new update at a specific location (maybe second or third position) so they are both easily seen when doing searches.

Improve README

Document how to hide/show specific apps. I just mentioned that you should use settings.json but it's not clear where to find that file.
Move the to-do items to separate cases.
Add screenshots/gifs.
Move release steps to separate file. @mutdmour since they're useful only for you I think it'd be better to move them to another file to make README shorter and clearer. What do you think?

Display shortcuts for active app

In most cases, we're interested only in shortcuts related to a currently active app. Alfred allows to get an active app name, so we can filter the results.

This can be achieved either with a hotkey trigger with Focused App Variable enabled or using the following Applescript:

tell application "System Events" to return name of first process whose frontmost is true

Though, these solutions won't give you a name or a URL of an active browser tab.

As with #12 we can make a separate trigger for it.

Search among all shortcuts without selecting app

Have you considered removing the first step of selecting an app and just allow to search among all shortcuts? I think it'll be much easier since instead of typing the app name, selecting it, and typing the shortcut name, I could type the shortcut name right away. And thanks to the fuzzy search I could also very fast filter the end results if there would be shortcuts from other apps found.

If you think that might be useful I could try to implement that.

add vs code, safari

Really awesome workflow. :)

VS Code icon not showing

The icon for VS code is not showing. Even though the icon exists. Instead it's defaulting to the cheatcheet logo.

Added in #24

Make long action names readable

Long action names get shortened by Alfred which makes them unreadable:

The most obvious way to fix that is to rename those actions, so Alfred won't shorten them anymore.

More apps to add

leftovers from #17

Execute shortcut via AppleScript

Since the normal ↵ does nothing it would be nice to execute the selected shortcut via AppleScript.

Are there any plans for this?

Customize app search results

Right now there are shortcuts for 26 different apps. I guess every user uses only a few of them. So it'd be nice to be able to customize app search results by including/excluding some of them. For example, if I don't use Microsoft Word I'd prefer to not see it in the search results.

move apps to its own repo

app shortcuts and logos should be moved to its own separate repo with each app in JSON format instead of Python.

Hide/Show apps in global serach

Right now, we can hide apps through settings.json or set a specific set of apps to show only. It would be nice if this could also apply to global search for shortcuts.

this is a follow up on #12 and #11

thumbnail image size and performance

Right now we have a lot of images for thumbnails with different sizes. This might be creating some lag in scrolling down apps. It would be nice if we can use only smaller image thumbnails for performance reasons and put a cap on thumbnails, without affecting quality of the image.

review and update apps

mac
slack
remove inbox.google.com

create a way through shortcuts to hide apps

Right now, we can hide apps through settings.json or set a specific set of apps to show only. It would be nice if we had a way to also directly handle this through the alfred interface.

this is a follow up on #9 and #11

Does not work after Monterey 12.3 update

Cheatsheet does not work after python 2 was removed in macOS 12.3.
Reinstalling python 2 under homebrew does not seem to work in this case.

Output:

Huge gifs in README.md

I wondered why my Macbook fans started to spin loudly and Chrome CPU usage went 70%+. It turned out it's because of those 3 gifs in README.md which are 150+ MB in total.

Can you please optimize or remove them?
