Using Workflow app with Pythonista
-
@AriX Thanks for including workflow into pythonista. This will be quite fun :) I do believe the correct url to pass pythonista argv is 'args' not 'argv'
<pre>
pythonista://[scriptname]?action=run&args=[argv values]
</pre> -
@briarfox Either works - argv lets you pass arguments one-by-one, and is what we use inside Workflow. See the documentation.
-
I think for now I will use Editorial, which does have x-callback.
Edit: A simple "Console Output" Action in Editorial automatically jumps back to Workflow.
-
I wonder if Workflow could be used to make an "open in Pythonista" action since it had to be removed from the app natively. I haven't had a chance to mess with Workflow yet, but if this could work it would make my life much easier.

@Omega0, you can already do this using a bookmarklet in safari. See for example
gistcheckYou create a bookmarklet in safari, then when viewing a gist you click the bookmark, and it downloads and opens in pythonista. I'm not sure what the use case is that you are trying to solve, but with slight modifications you could make this more general.
-
@JonB,
I was unaware of the Safari bookmark method, but what I was looking for was something more along the lines of loading a PDF from the Google Drive app. Which I don't think would be possible with a bookmark. -
Omega0: That would be really cool, but unless workflow includes their own web server (or at the very least a base64 conversion action) at some point, it doesn't seem possible.
Edit: I guess if there was an upload action that would work too. Right now the fastest way seems to be using Dropbox :(
-
One workaround is to change the extension to an extension pythonista can open, then change it back once it is in pythonista.
Edit: looks like Pythonista can't open any file type?
You could read the contents of the file without opening it, and paste it in to pythonista?

Any news on the update? You said "this week" last week :)

@942v8653
You're aware that this isn't the forum for Workflow, right? -
@942v8653 App Store review is closed until Dec 29 (at least according to OmniFocus)
-
@the_buch: Oh, I forgot about that—you could schedule updates (e.g. Christmas icon) to happen in the period but if you didn't get it in by Dec 22 (Monday), you have to wait.

Pocket'ed for experiments with the Watch.
