![]() These commands create a window with the default profile. ![]() The profile must be configured to have a hotkey.Įxample: create hotkey window with profile "Hotkey Window"Ĭreate window with default profile command " command" Finally, it tries again searching only the base name without path extension (like helloworld).Įxample: launch API script named "helloworld"Ĭreate hotkey window with profile " name"Ĭreates a hotkey window with the specified profile. Then it tries again, but only searches the file's base name (like helloworld.py). Then it tries again, but ignores the path extension (like. First, it searches for a script with that exact path relative to ~/Library/Application Support/iTerm2/Scripts. The name can specify any script in the Scripts menu. You can use it to call a registered RPC, or to evaluate other kinds of expressions used in the Python API, such as variables in the global scope.Įxample: invoke API expression "myRegisteredFunction()" This creates a bridge from Applescript to the Python API. The application exposes various properties and provides functions that are described in this section. Multiple sessions in a tab happen when there are split panes. The application has zero or more windows, each window has one or more tabs, and each tab has one or more sessions. The basic objects are: window, tab, and session. Scripts must be named with the extension. You can create this directory if it does not already exist. The scripts need to be stored under the ~/Library/Application Support/iTerm/Scripts directory. ITerm2 also supports launching of user defined scripts from the "Scripts" menu. If that folder does not exist, the legacy path of "~/Library/Application Support/iTerm/Scripts/AutoLaunch.scpt" will be used. If it is found, the "AutoLaunch.scpt" script is launched and executed. On startup, iTerm2 looks for an Applescript file in "~/Library/Application Support/iTerm2/Scripts/AutoLaunch.scpt". ITerm2 also supports autolaunching of an Applescript on startup. These scripts can then be saved as stand-alone executable applications. You can also set some other parameters for a session such as foreground and background colors, and transparency. ITerm2 has sophisticated Applescript support allowing one to write stand-alone scripts to launch the application and open multiple sessions with profiles into either new tabs or new windows. Quite a bit of customization is also possible by writing shell scripts. ITerm2 features Applescript support which allows you to automate many aspects of its behavior. New code should use the Python API if possible. Note: Applescript support is in maintenance mode. Please see the Python API docs for a much better alternative. It will continue to receive bug fixes, but new features will not be added. AppleScript can be pasted raw into this and doesn't need any special wrapping.Applescript in iTerm2 is deprecated. you can use Alfred while something is still running in the background from a previous workflow). Using a Run Script with osascript runs the AppleScript in the background which will allow a script to take quite some time to run and not block Alfred (i.e. Due to the nature of NSAppleScript, you need to wrap your AppleScript in on alfred_script(q) and end alfred_script. ![]() NSAppleScript will also allow you to easily show dialogs from your AppleScript as it doesn't have the same security restrictions as osascript. What are the actual implications of that difference? In what situations would you use one over the other?Įssentially, the Run NSAppleScript set to 'compiled' will be the fastest, and for fast non-processing type AppleScripts, it is perfect BUT this will make Alfred use a little more memory. In the workflow panel it's stated that the NSApplescript action runs on Alfred's main thread and that background Applescripts should be run with the Run Script command. ![]()
