#SEND To download, visit the Packal page

###Version: 1.1

This workflow allows users to quickly and easily send documents to the cloud service of their choice. Once configured (send:config), users can make use of either:

  • hotkey
  • file action
  • keyword

to either send a duplicate of the file to the cloud service (leaving the original where it is), or move the original itself to the cloud service.

##Configuration When you run send:config, 3 options appear:

options

This will determine which cloud service you send your data to using the workflow. At any point, you can change your settings, but once set the workflow will always send the chosen file to this folder. Anyways, if you choose the Other option, you will need to name the service used:

config

After this (or if you choose iCloud or Dropbox), you will need to choose the folder you will be sending to. The workflow will begin by telling you what you need to do:

config2

After this reminder, you will choose the folder:

folder

This is an example of having chosen iCloud, and the workflow will automatically take you to the Mobile Documents folder in your Library, where you will see all of your iCloud enabled apps have their own personal folders. Choose the one you'd like to send your stuff to. For example, if you use Readdle's Documents app on your iPad or iPhone, find that folder within the Mobile Documents folder and select it.

Once configured, you can send documents in a few different ways. First, you can use Alfred's File Browser to either send a duplicate or send the original to the cloud service you chose above:

action

Or you could use the keywords. send:d sends a duplicate of the frontmost document (if possible):

dup

send:o sends the original of the frontmost file to the cloud folder (if possible):

orig

Of course, you can also set up Hotkeys for both of these actions as well.

The workflow is 90% Applescript, so it should work on all machines out-of-the-box. There is a little bit of Python, which uses deanishe's Alfred-Workflow library as its backbone.

Hope this is helpful, stephen
