Hey @jeremymeyers, unfortunately the repo Wox.Plugin.Discogs is no longer available. I wont be able to port it.

Xenolphthalein · 2020-10-19T11:13:39Z

Hey i would love to see the Clipboard History Tool from Wox in FlowLauncher.
https://github.com/Wox-launcher/Wox.Plugin.ClipboardManager
That always was my most used tool from Wox / Alfred / Albert.

pc223 · 2020-11-22T03:45:21Z

I use this plugin a lot 😄, crucial to my workflow (a lot of windows switching),

https://github.com/Wox-launcher/Wox.Plugin.Switcheroo

This's a plugin base on this and this

Another similar one call WindowWalker, heard them ported to PowerToys Run, but I never tried it.

Note: this plugin currently have a 1-2 hundred ms delay when query, potentially because of icon getter.

Xenolphthalein · 2020-11-24T00:23:20Z

I created a port of the ClipboardManager Plugin. You can find it here:

Can YouTubeQuery https://github.com/TheDoctor0/YouTubeQuery be replaced with the youtube search in WebSearch plugin (have not looked at what that plugin does)?

Francesco270 · 2020-11-29T20:49:06Z

Can YouTubeQuery https://github.com/TheDoctor0/YouTubeQuery be replaced with the youtube search in WebSearch plugin (have not looked at what that plugin does)?

YouTubeQuery actually shows the video results, so title + image preview which is quite handy.

My favourites:
Wox.Plugin.Bang: search with duckduckgo bangs directly
wox-mpv-plugin: control mpv
Wox.Plugin.Media: play, pause, etc...
wox.plugin.volume: control audio volume

YouTubeQuery actually shows the video results, so title + image preview which is quite handy.

Might investigate whether we can merge into WebSearch plugin because it's quite useful to search like this

Yeah I agree, but even a separate Plugin would work just fine.

@pc223 Now that Window Walker is available for Flow, do you still need Switcheroo?

I'm running the new plugin right now, it works, no bugs or anything, just that I'm still have to getting by with my current setup for now, because of a bit of customized code for Switcheroo plugin and not yet port to the new Walker plugin (maybe in the lunar new year holiday 😄).

Ultimately, it depends on you guys, to do what good for Flow 😄 personally, I believe windows switching is a really useful feauture that many users need.

jjw24 · 2020-12-31T09:24:44Z

Ok cool. Yeah feel free to put in an issue to window walker plugin if you want those features from switcheroo that are not there. Or if u code c# just chuck a pr in

harrynull · 2021-01-31T04:23:23Z

Thank you for porting my Dictionary plugin!

jjw24 · 2021-01-31T05:16:05Z

@harrynull would you be keen to create an empty Flow.Launcher.Dictionary (or any name you like) and I can push to the port to it, because it is currently under me as a fork and not discoverable via github search. It would be nice if people can also search for it.

harrynull · 2021-01-31T06:54:25Z

@jjw24 Definitely! I've created an empty repo and granted you write access to it if that is what you mean :)

jjw24 · 2021-01-31T08:00:05Z

Done, future downloads from Flow will be from that repo 👍

zany130 · 2021-02-07T02:55:59Z

so a couple of wox plugins I was able to get to work by just copy pasting them from the wox plugins folder into flow plugin folder.
EDIT: found out while i was able to get a few of the wox plugins I use to load in flow, they don't seem to work
these are:

isPrime
https://github.com/lvonkacsoh/wox-plugin-isPrime

Synonymer

taooceros · 2021-02-08T17:31:32Z

@zany130 I port UrlEncode and IPAddress, and they will be in the manifest soon.

jjw24 · 2021-02-09T02:57:35Z

@katchy3132 Putty has been ported

@7yang7 I am not able to port the Google Translate plugin because of the change of googel api. However, I do create a plugin based on LibreTranslation (its translation seems not as good as Google Translation for Chinese, but I am not sure about Russian). However, thank them so much for providing the free api). You can take a try on it.

Thanks for the plugin! Unfortunately, some words are not translated into Russian :( . But this is better than nothing.

Yeah that's happening in Chinese translation as well. Hope they will get through that issue soon. 🙂

We now have a document on how to port .Net plugins, if you are a .net dev interested in bringing some plugins across to Flow:
https://flow-launcher.github.io/docs/#/port-plugins

Updates to make it more clearer is welcome too

Warden20 · 2021-03-01T21:01:04Z

FancyEmoji
https://github.com/821C3/Wox.Plugin.FancyEmoji

I made a table with all the plugins listed as compatible on Flow-Launcher#170 ... the plugin names would need to be verified in terms of being able to use them to install correctly but since there doesn't seem to be anywhere else in the docs that this lives i thought it might be a good addition.

jeremymeyers · 2021-03-04T22:54:40Z

If someone could convert https://github.com/DanielBV/Wox.Plugin.Todoist that would be fabulous.

jjw24 · 2021-03-05T12:12:32Z

I am porting Todoist :)

jjw24 · 2021-03-05T14:43:32Z

Todoist plugin is ported over

jeremymeyers · 2021-03-05T18:23:37Z

@jjw24 opened an issue over there

jeremymeyers · 2021-03-05T18:24:05Z

Also noticed this is a thing, maybe the list of plugins should be here too/instead/linked to from here? https://github.com/Flow-Launcher/Flow.Launcher.PluginsManifest

sorry not sure what you mean. This issue is going to be temporary, once the plugins here have been ported I plan to close this. The purpose of this issue is to gather only popular/regularly used Wox plugins from users as a lot of Wox plugins are out of date and not maintained, so not planning to port over all of them.

I have updated the issue description to be more clearer

jjw24 · 2021-03-10T09:51:14Z

@Francesco270 porting Todos plugin, do you know the difference between alannotnerd's and the original from caoyue?

@Francesco270 the Wox.Plugin.Todos port is done, should be available soon.

Very nice project

lvonkacsoh · 2021-04-14T14:16:56Z

Hey, I recently discovered this and was surprised that my IsPrime wox plugin got listed. Didn't even know someone but me would use it. Huh.
Your plugin site lists it as working but I can't install it via the pm install command. From your plugin manifest I'm not quiet sure what I can do port it properly. Is it only making a pr with an updated plugin.json file? Since the code is written in python and uses the wox package I assume it wouldn't work out of the box.
Sorry for asking via this thread - your documentation left me kind of insecure about how to help and it seemed to be an easy way 😅

jjw24 · 2021-04-14T23:04:08Z

@lvonkacsoh no problem at all. Yep please add to it to Flow's plugin manifest to share it with the community.

I think it's listed here as to port, and in the doc site as working for Flow, but we havent added in to the plugins manifest. The documentation for porting plugins is for ones written in .net, i havent got around to writing for python.

I think the best way to go about it is to follow one of the python plugins here:
https://github.com/deefrawley/Flow.Launcher.Plugin.Currency/tree/main
it's something along the lines of updating json file->change wox package to flowlauncher-> fix any obsolete methods

and then once you have it published, just create a pr for the plugins manifest here:
https://github.com/Flow-Launcher/Flow.Launcher.PluginsManifest

Also if you can please add a documentation for how to port Python plugins.

lvonkacsoh · 2021-04-15T15:27:09Z

@jjw24 Thanks for the reply and plugin reference - it was very helpful!
I ported the plugin and created a PR. Actually my first time doing that so I hope that I didn't fuck up haha.
Added a small part about the porting at the bottom of the plugins readme file.

jjw24 · 2021-04-17T11:31:02Z

@zany130, @lvonkacsoh's isPrime plugin has been ported to Flow

Ma-ve · 2021-06-20T11:36:10Z

I'd love to have https://github.com/821C3/Wox.Plugin.FancyEmoji ported over. I tried it myself, got it running, but couldn't get the set-to-clipboard working in Python. :<

I'd love to have https://github.com/821C3/Wox.Plugin.FancyEmoji ported over. I tried it myself, got it running, but couldn't get the set-to-clipboard working in Python. :<

There's some bug between the second time transmission between flow and python plugin. Sorry for the bug. The late dev branch has fixed it. You can take a try. https://ci.appveyor.com/api/buildjobs/txc943l7v5j1kmpt/artifacts/Output%2FPackages%2FFlow-Launcher-v1.7.2.exe

Remark: Everything plugin is not working correctly in this build.

@jjw24 Should we release a hot fix for that? That has broke some python plugin functionality.

jjw24 · 2021-06-21T21:51:14Z
