Need a bunch of random string? UUIDs will be unique, making them easy to track down as they move through a system. Because of their uniqueness, they come in handy in situations where an auto incremented primary key can fall short.īecause of their uniqueness, UUIDs are well suited for generating test data. Look more carefully at the syntax that's given in the first post: keys and values are separated with colons, key-value pairs are separated with commas.Universally unique identifiers (UUIDs) are 128-bit numbers that are accepted as being unique on the local system they are created on as well as among the UUIDs created on other systems in the past as well as the future. This means that you're missing a comma in your JSON.

No fuss, no muss.Īnd that's it! Enjoy implementing this, until we get a good package manager running again, and let me know if you run into any difficulties.
Selecting a workflow from the list will download it. If the version on the remote server is greater than the version on the user's computer, s/he'll see something like this: "description": "Brief description of the update." Version should be a float, meaning that 1.0 and 1.1 and 3.14159 are all valid, but 3.1.4 is not, and remote_json should point to a json file on a remote server that's defined like this: Place an update.json file in your workflow, with the following keys defined: All you need is a static place to host a json file and an alfredworkflow file-so Github will do, failing all else, but Droplr won't. Workflow developers can start implementing this workflow immediately.
update.json indicates what version of the workflow is currently installed and where to check for an update.
I'm currently working on a built in workflow auto-updater, for a future Alfred 2 release, that performs the standard verification checks that Alfred currently does on manual import, along with migrating your hotkey/keyword settings on upgrading. Note from Andrew: While this is a convenient method for updating workflows, I cannot endorse the use of it unless you are fully aware of the security implications of blanket updating all of your workflows.
