HexDocs Alfred Workflow

Quickly open Hex Package Documentation from Alfred, with autocomplete suggestions.

Overview

This is a workflow that lets you search for a Hex (Elixir) package and open the docs. It aims to supplement the excellent Package Managers Alfred Workflow by @willfarrell. Which is why it launches with hexdocs as the trigger instead of just hex.

Dependencies

• Alfred Power Pack
• Elixir (& Erlang) installed via ASDF
• https://asdf-vm.com/guide/getting-started.html
• asdf install erlang latest
• asdf install elixir latest

Installation

1. Download the workflow from Github Releases: https://github.com/dkarter/alfred_hex_docs/releases/latest/download/hexdocs.alfredworkflow
2. Open the file to install the workflow

Usage

Open Alfred and type hexdocs [package name]. Press Enter to open the docs or Shift for a quick preview.
