Alfred workflow for Chromium browsers

Why?

This workflow originated from alfred-chrome-workflow.

The previous workflow has several installation issues like this.

In addition to resolving installation issues, this workflow provides several following benefits over the previous one.

  • Support favicon images in almost all features
  • Support switching browsers, profiles with ease
  • Support more Chromium based browsers
  • Lightning-fast
  • Provide localized subtitle

🌈 Features

  • 📄 Search visit histories
  • 🔖 Search bookmark, bookmark folders
  • 📜 Search search histories
  • 🔎 Search download logs
  • 📒 Search and copy your autofill data
  • 📎 Search your opened tabs and focus, close them

📌 Prerequisite

The prerequisites below are required to use that package.

🎯 Supported Browsers

Currently supported browsers are as follows.

  • Chrome
  • Chrome Beta
  • Chrome Canary
  • Chromium
  • Edge
  • Edge Canary
  • Brave
  • Naver Whale
  • Epic
  • Vivaldi
  • Opera
  • Arc

This workflow assumes your browser is Chrome at default.

You can switch the browser with ch browser.

🔨 How to install

Download alfred-chromium-workflow.alfredworkflow on the Release page and double click the file to add to Alfred.

  • The executable is not code-signed so manual verification of the executable is required to run Alfred commands. From the Alfred Preferences' Workflows tab, right-click alfred-chromium-workflow in the left nav, and select "Open in Finder". Find and right-click the alfred-chromium-workflow executable, then click "Open" (do not simply double-click the file). You will be presented with a modal dialog that reads "macOS cannot verify the developer of “alfred-chromium-workflow”. Are you sure you want to open it?" - click Open. The warning will no longer appear during workflow usage.

  • Note that if your browser is not the default browser (Chrome), you need to switch your browser through ch browser first.

  • Register your customized hotkeys if you need to.

Note : This workflow may not work on Intel Macs in versions 0.3.0 and above.
