Recent Downloads Workflow
This is an Alfred v2 workflow to access the most recent downloads in the Downloads folder.
The items are sorted in decreasing order based on the time they are added to the folder. The item is filtered by testing whether the query is a subsequence (need not be consecutive) of it.
There are two operations on the selected item:
- open with default application (default)
- if the item can be installed (an application, an dmg file, a zip file containing those files, etc), the workflow will prompt the user whether to install it. After the installation, if the item installed is an application, the workflow will prompt the user whether to launch it
- reveal in Finder (holding "option" key)
- delete (holding "ctrl" key)
- move to trash (holding "cmd" key)
The installation behavior can be controlled by config.yaml
at
~/Library/Application Support/Alfred 2/Workflow Data/recentdownloads.ddjfreedom/config.yaml
:
Name | Possible Values |
---|---|
install_action |
ask , install , open |
auto_start |
ask , always , never |
subfolders |
:all , :none , a list of entries |
max-entries |
:all , integer for the number of results |
Subfolders
Recent Downloads workflow can display items in some specified subfolders along with everything in ~/Downloads
. The value for subfolders
in config.yaml
can be :all
, :none
, or a list of entries. Each entry can be a path or a hash:
folder:
depth: = 1> (default to 1)
exclude: (default to false)
where depth
controls how deep to go down the file system tree starting from folder
, and exclude
controls whether the folder
itself is included in the result. :all
and :none
will override all other settings (whichever appears first).
Examples
Suppose ~/Downloads
is as following
+-~/Downloads
+-a/
| +-aa.pdf
| +-ab/
| +-pic.jpg
| +-e/
| +-f.img
+-b/
| +-ba/
| +-baa/
| | +-foo/
| | | +-bar.c
| | +-bar/
| | +-foo/
| | +-foo.c
| +-bab.xml
+-c/
+-imgs/
+-img.png
If config.yaml
has the following value
subfolders:
-
folder: "a"
exclude: false
depth: 2
-
folder: "b"
exclude: true
-
"c"
the result will be
a, a/aa.pdf, a/ab, a/ab/pic.jpg, a/ab/e
b/ba
c, c/imgs
