Upload to Alfred Gallery?

Update: please refrain from posting "solutions" like installing uni with Homebrew. The topic is to upload this to the gallery, which means people expect to download and use, without needing to know what Homebrew or command line is.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Unfortunately, Alfred Gallery doesn‘t seem to like the concept of a workflow bundling with an unsigned binary, which is the case of uni.

Unsigned and non-notarised binaries cannot be included.

I’ll reconsider this in case when uni signs their macOS binary or Alfred Gallery updates their requirements otherwise.

@blueset Why are we bundling the uni binary with the Workflow instead of using Homebrew?

brew install uni

Initially, I included uni for convenience, since I wanted it to have less dependencies and prerequisites during installation. While uni is included, I did not include Python as it is relatively more common on users’ environments, and it’s rather not practical to bundle an entire Python binary with the workflow.

If Alfred is going to handle Homebrew dependencies as they suggested, I’ll consider dropping uni from the workflow bundle for the Gallery submission.

I don't use Homebrew.

You can't just assume Alfred users are all developers and/or Homebrew users.

They already do it.

Quick fix:

# Download/install uni from homebrew
brew install uni
# Delete packaged uni version
# Should be in a folder like '/Users/<user>/Library/Application Support/Alfred/Alfred.alfredpreferences/workflows/user.workflow.<uuid>'
WORKFLOW_FOLDER=<set folder value here>
rm "${WORKFLOW_FOLDER}/uni"
ln -s /opt/homebrew/bin/uni "${WORKFLOW_FOLDER}/uni"
# You can also start a terminal from the Alfred application

Alfred Gallery seems to be invite only. Any idea on how to get an invite?

That may have been updated since June, but they ask you to begin by sharing the workflow in a new thread on the forum: https://alfred.app/submit/

I’ve posted it to the forum back in 2019. Do you think I should open a new thread?
