Jerry’s Workflows for Alfred

Some productivity workflows I have sporadically created thoughout the years.

RJ: Create Project

This script creates a folder structure defined in a text file.

Prerequisites

• Python 3.x
• Alfred Powerpack

Setup

Normally you won’t need to set it up, the workflow should work out of the box – in case you’d still need it, here is a breakdown:

The Workflow

The File Action

The Script

Usage

Create an UTF-8 encoded text file – the definition file, select the it in Finder (or any file manager app), get Alfred actions panel (with the hotkey set in Preferences → Features → Universal Actions → Selection Hotkey), and run RJ: Create Project. The folder structure will be created where the definition file resides.

Syntax

• One line represents a folder.
• Lines on the same indention level represent sibling folders.
• A positive indention to the previous line represents a subfolder.
• A negative indention to the previous line represents a parent folder.
• Indentions must be written with TAB characters.
• The script will replace the %date% string in the definition file with the actual date.

Example 1

Contents of the definition file:

root-folder-1
root-folder-2
	sub-folder-1
	sub-folder-2
	sub-folder-3
		sub-sub-folder-1
		sub-sub-folder-2
	sub-folder-4
root-folder-3

Example 2

Contents of the definition file:

root-folder-1
root-%date%-folder-2
	sub-folder-1
	sub-folder-2
		sub-sub-%date%-folder-1
		sub-sub-folder-2
	%date%
root-folder-3
