alfred-reddit's Introduction

Reddit for Alfred

Find subreddits and browse hot posts on Reddit.

Download

Get Reddit for Alfred from GitHub.

Note: Version 1.4 (and above) is not compatible with Alfred 2. Please download v1.3 if you're using Alfred 2.

Usage

r/ — Show list of popular subreddits
- ⇥, ↩ or ⌘+NUM — Show 50 hottest posts in selected subreddit
- ⌘+↩ — Open subreddit in browser
- ⇧ or ⌘+Y — Show Quick Look preview of subreddit
- ⌥+↩ - Make post in the subreddit
r/<query> — Search for subreddits matching <query>
- ⇥ — Show 50 hottest posts in selected subreddit (same as appending /)
- ↩ or ⌘+NUM — Open subreddit in browser
- ⇧ or ⌘+Y — Show Quick Look preview of subreddit
- ⌥+↩ - Make post in the subreddit
r/<subreddit>/[<query>] — Show 50 hottest posts on subreddit <subreddit>, filtered by <query> if present
- ↩ or ⌘+NUM — Open article in default browser
- ⌘+↩ — Open Reddit comments in default browser
- ⌥+↩ — Open article and Reddit comments in default browser
- ⌘+L — Show full post title in Alfred's Large Type window
- ⇧ or ⌘+Y — Show Quick Look preview of comments page (or post)
r/u/<username>/m/<multi>/[<query>] — Show 50 hottest posts on user multireddit.

Note: OS X's "delete word" shortcut (⌥+⌫) is very handy for backing out of a subreddit.

Description

A basic workflow to browse subreddits.

The subreddit search, r/<query>, uses Reddit's API to search for subreddits that match <query>. 25 results are retrieved by default.

The subreddit search can be a bit odd, which is due to the legendary crapness of Reddit's search function.

Search within a subreddit, r/subreddit/<query>, only filters the list of hot results. 50 results are retrieved by default.

Configuration

There are a couple of options in the workflow's configuration sheet.

Set NSFW to 1 to include subreddits marked "over 18" in search results.

Set QUICKLOOK_POST to 1 for the Quick Look preview to show the article instead of the Reddit comment page.

Licensing, thanks etc.

Alfred-Reddit is released under the MIT Licence.

I found the logo in a Font Awesome issue on GitHub.

It's heavily based on Alfred-Workflow, also MIT-licensed.

alfred-reddit's Issues

.

This Alfred workflow sounds really useful But I haven't been able to get it to work on Alfred 4, macOS Monterey on multiple occasions. See attached screenshot of its Alfred debugging info below (I'm a noob when its comes to web developer/coding tools so I don't know where to go from there)

Autocomplete feature

Would it be possible to add an autocomplete feature to subreddits so we don't need to type the whole subreddit name to view the posts?

Searching for `r/maine` gives an error

Not sure if there are logs I can inspect that would shed more light?

Connection Error

I'm so sorry. But when I use your workflow, it said the connection reset by peer. Do you know why it happened? Thank you so much.

Make NSFW option enabled

Is it possible for the workflow to have nsfw option enabled? 🍎

Typing exact subreddit gives exact one as first choice

So for instance, if i do r/movies it should give me the Movies subreddit as the very first choice, since it's typed exactly as is. I shouldn't be getting the below:

Wrong Python version

Hey,

I've just tried to install this workflow, and I ran into some issues, which I managed to fix. It was all related to the Python version and the code trying to call Python from '/usr/bin/python' which might not be the correct usage for everyone. First, I had to install Python2 which is gone from the newer MacOs versions. Once that's done, get the location of Python2, and replace '/usr/bin/python' with that location in the two actions inside the workflow, and for every instance in 'reddit.py', 'workflow.py', and 'background.py'. That fixed it for me. Hope this helps!

Duplicate cached results

Searching for r/Python and r/python get me to the same subreddit which is the expected behaviour, however the results are cached twice. Any chance to cache only the properly capitalised argument? It would be nice not having duplicates while typing r/.
