oh lol.. whats the question?
Avatar
OpticSugar 1108YYYY-151531
So, how should we deal with publishing shortcuts that have dependencies, or a ‘suite’ of shortcuts that all work in tandem with eachother - on RoutineHub and with UpdateKit?
Avatar
Timber 1108YYYY-151541
LOL
15:15
@OpticSugar I am actually working on something for that right now
Avatar
OpticSugar 1108YYYY-151610
oh, NICE... so it was a relevant question!
Avatar
Timber 1108YYYY-151622
I’m calling it BundleKit and basically it would let you bundle a lot of shortcuts together into an installer that can be downloaded, launched, and then installs the rest of the shortcuts.
15:16
It’s still got a ways to go, but that’s the goal at least
Avatar
Brendan 🦿 1108YYYY-151656
That'll be nice.. cuz I keep on saying "UpdateKit" required if they don't have it.
15:17
In my shortcuts ^
Avatar
Timber 1108YYYY-151713
I also have no idea what to do about shortcuts that are owned by others, as like UpdateKit if you bundle an old version, then the first thing that happens when you unbundle is you have to update every damn thing.
15:17
So it’s not perfect... But it should be better than the “Go install these 5 shortcuts so this works” solution
Avatar
OpticSugar 1108YYYY-151738
I recently created a suite of 5 tools + one prefs shortcut that I bundled with u/schl3ck ‘s installer... I’ve shared it on reddit, but I’m not sure how I would share it here.
Avatar
VanishingTacos 1108YYYY-151752
One of my shortcut requires two other shortcuts. UpdateKit and CryptoKit. 🤷‍♂️
Avatar
Timber 1108YYYY-151801
Reddit hates me right now so can’t see it there lol
😆 1
15:18
Yeah, the other thing I foresee is getting permission. Although UpdateKit and CryptoKit are well known there’s plenty of other similar shortcuts out there, and no one can force users to ask for permission to include them, so I don’t love that either.
15:19
I am going to try to find a way to implement that with a search on RoutineHub, but even then it’s still not perfect.
Avatar
OpticSugar 1108YYYY-152333
here is my masterpiece: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/ae7fc717ae2045868d4bede2efae4282 the “Vehicle Sharing Suite” A collection of five tools to help people that share a vehicle with other family members or friends. It uses a shared Apple calendar to manage and keep track of the status of the vehicle's availability, parking and whereabouts. It makes it a breeze to coordinate the use of the car with others, avoid parking tickets, and find where the car is currently parked.
Avatar
Brendan 🦿 1108YYYY-152557
I mean, the only thing that sucks is web hosting. I was figuring it out how to include it before you were able to do it manually
Avatar
OpticSugar 1108YYYY-152831
yeah, so the issue with this particular situation is: None of these shortcuts are designed to work on their own, so publishing them individually in RoutinePub can be misleading in that someone might stumble upon it and download it (then it wouldn’t work without the dependent prefs shortcut) and it wouldn’t make much sense without the other tools in the suite.
15:29
but I’d like to publish them in RoutineHub so that I can push out versions with UpdateKit...
15:30
One solution might be to have the option to publish a shortcut that is not publicly visible... but will still work when called on by UpdateKit.
Avatar
Timber 1108YYYY-153108
@OpticSugar follow me on RH, and when I release it you’ll see it.

15:31
As for the not-public I had requested that from @Harley Hicks a while ago, I think it’s still in the works. But there’s other issues with that plan as well. Bundling seems like the best option if possible.
15:31
Which I am working on as we speak 😆
Avatar
OpticSugar 1108YYYY-153155
That way, I can publish the installer bundle on RoutineHub for public downloads... and the other individual parts can be published as hidden for pushing out updates of the individual parts.
15:32
okay!

VanishingTacos 1108YYYY-153231
I’m going to find a way to build CryptoKit into my shortcut to eliminate the need for a separate shortcut for that. This is going to take me a while.
Avatar
OpticSugar 1108YYYY-153323
the thing is, if I have to make a fix or tweak to one (of the five bundled) shortcuts, I’d hate to expect the user to have to re-install all of them.
Avatar
Brendan 🦿 1108YYYY-153335
Honestly.. I wish they had Shortcuts for Mac.. I know Automator is one, but its Mac only. Cuz kinda like Xcode, they can run an emulator to see if the shortcut works.

I mean, Handoff is possible with multiple devices, so it would be easy to transfer over to the Mac while working on a shortcut, instead of going to different apps, finding info and things like that.

spencer 1108YYYY-154630
Personally, I would just “Get My Shortcuts” “If contains shortcut” otherwise open url instead of bundling the shortcut

Timber 1108YYYY-154714
Doesn’t work like that

VanishingTacos 1108YYYY-154846
@spencer That’s how I have it set up to install UpdateKit. CryptoKit on the other hand automatically installs.
Avatar
Timber 1108YYYY-155019
The idea is that bundling you’d be able to have it auto install them all. No redirect to a URL, no need to leave the Shortcut.
15:50
Just download 1 shortcut, it installs the rest, and then you delete the installer.
15:51

So I’ve come up with my solution for publishing / updating a bundle of shortcuts on RoutineHub, and having them update with UpdateKit. https://routinehub.co/shortcut/821
RoutineHub - Vehicle Sharing Suite
Manage, share and keep track of the status of your vehicle's availability, parking and whereabouts.
Thumbnail
15:40
One of the 6 shortcuts in this suite is a ‘prefs’ file that shares the users preferences to all the other shortcuts. This is also where I store the UpdateKit dictionary, and the commands that I use to implement UpdateKit (as well as another subroutine that converts a duration of time into a date). I then found a clever way to call on these subroutines by re-running the “_VSS_prefs” with different inputs that will tell it what subroutine to run. It works like a charm. I think it’s pretty clever and I’ve never seen this done before. If anyone is interested in checking it out, let me know what you think. For all I know, this could be something that everyone does, but if it’s not, I figured I’d share it with the community.

Do you happen to know if its possible to run a shortcut using a url scheme in the today widget? I had it all working, but once when you run a shortcut, it runs in the app. Let me know if I need to send a link out. It’ll be under “Run a Shortcut”

url schemes open apps not the notification center

you can use Run Shortcut instead and provide a variable name of the shortcut to run

It’s a subroutine for a bigger shortcut, to add the ability for the user to choose a different reminders list (from a list of existing reminders lists). I’m adding the ability to say “save list” and it will save it to a txt file on your iCloud... then you can say “revert list” and it will go back to what you had defined in your prefs (dictionary).
11:19
This will eventually be driven by speech, but I’m at work, so I’m handling the spoken lines via a pop up list so I don’t annoy my coworkers.

Alright, I’ve got a challenge: I’m having a difficult time finding a streamlined way to acquire a list of all your different “reminder lists” This is the method I’ve come up with so far, and it has it’s flaws (read more details in the comments within the shortcut). https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/d676af92f03c4383bcc0ea8243495d0f
12:00
this works, but there has to be a better way. I’m so surprised they haven’t built something like this into a node (ie: “Get reminder lists”)
12:01
okay... Actually, I just tried running this NOT from within the shortcut (by clicking the shortcut button), and it was lightning fast. It’s only sluggish when you’re hitting the play button inside the shortcut... I even tested it with 100 (update: 250) loops, and it was worked instantly ...so this may be a viable method after all.

maybe because it’s trying to show the loops happening... for troubleshooting purposes? I mean, this does work, it’s just unmanageably slow when inside the shortcut. I could see it get to a point very easily (like looping 250 items) where you would think it’s crashed or locked up. (edited)

I did something like this in a project last week... I have a “prefs” shortcut that contains a bunch of subroutines, and you can trigger any of them based on what input you send the shortcut, and it will run the subroutine. But you could also have it do that to itself, brilliant.
Avatar
Timber 1112YYYY-122047
Yeah, but for me what it's doing is isntalling the component it needs to do the next step, which means it can't do it and then exit :/

exiting inside of a “run shortcut” will not exit the parent shortcut... just the ‘subroutine’

In this case, I wouldn’t expect people to run this from within the shortcut anyway, and it would only run the sluggish loop if people invoke a certain function (not the primary purpose of the shortcut) so I might just leave it.

@ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) I just realized that if you enable “Show in Share Sheet” to get access to the magic variable “Shortcut Input”, you can then turn off “Show in Share Sheet” and your magic variables remain functional! So you don’t need to set a variable at the head of your shortcut. (edited)

But Get Contents of URL seems to be too slow for whatever reason?

e10. (i made rogue siri) 1115YYYY-230550
@spencer well, I basically just made an Achievements file and put all my achievements there In the end of the shortcut, there’s a “Set variable” action, so I can save the name of the achievement you get with each ending. So in the end of each ending, I put a text action with the achievement’s name. Also you don’t want an achievement to appear twice so you need to use an if action before adding the achievement to the file(it would also be good to put the show notification action, that tells you that you got an achievement, in the if action too).

Ok, so the reminder created and went off no problem but it doesn't provide a link back to where i wanted to go.

use the Text action to enter the full prompt and then use the Text magic variable in the menu’s prompt. alternatively, enter JUST a line break in the text field and under that magic variable between two words with no spaces to add a line break there.

You can set up a dictionary for all your menu prompts using Arrays and put the array value in the menu - each item in the array will be an individual line, or you can use a non-standard invisible line-break to directly paste your two lines of text into the menu prompt field, which bypasses needing to use variables at all

or you can put a text with multiple lines and use the text variable, don't have to use an array (edited)
Avatar
Balthamos 1203YYYY-181830
Yeah, I prefer the dictionary though over the text variable since the text action is so large, but Mike’s trick of using a single line break text variable means I wouldn’t need to use tons of separate text actions so that’s even cleaner than the dictionary method
18:21
I’ll probably start to just combine the two methods to not have any extra actions and just put the single non-standard linebreak character in a dictionary value in my shortcut’s settings dictionary and then just reuse that in each prompt between the two words I want on separate lines

Hey @Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) , so i was hoping that the latest 2.1.2 update would have fixed my issue with RoutinePub; however, it hasn't. I can do everything else with the exception of actually publishing a new shortcut. The spot that it hangs is the first "Get My Shortcuts" to run UpdateKit. I'm curious if anyone else is having this issue or if there is a way that I can sort of go around it? I've attached a quick video of a random attempt to publish.

just to see if it is the get my shortcuts action causing it, you can try removing it and the associated if statements

One solution would be to make updates to it optional, but maybe that’s not a good idea if things change

Or put UpdateKit inside of it, like how CryptoKit is

I have an idea for how to stop RoutinePub from crashing itself
01:07
It’s really hard to explain but here’s an example: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/c38c316b683c484ebf99fef125cbe19d
01:07
Basically it checks if the input contains a specific string
01:08
And if yes then it gets a dictionary value from the input and uses that as the input
01:08
If the string doesn’t exist, it creates a dictionary that contains both the string and the shortcut input, then sends it to itself
01:10
Basically this prevents the entire shortcut to have to be loaded into edit mode when it needs to run actions which should prevent crashes

Avatar
RyanC 1209YYYY-083053
Yeah but I was suggesting you to directly include AirBag into RoutinePub, as for some reason doing that won’t cause as many crashes
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 1209YYYY-083141
i considered doing that. it would be more complicated that what yours is though, because routinepub is very complex.
08:37
routinepub uses tricks like counting items the input and checking to see if the input is a url before continuing. i also pass in a dictionary with a crypto function name so it’s got to account for that too. that’s how it figures out what more to run in. changing the format of the input could be bad.
Avatar
RyanC 1209YYYY-084343
I think you can simply just set a new variable that has the URL, then in the parts where it processes the URL, just make it get the contents of that new variable instead of the shortcut input
08:44
I’ll try making a modified version of RoutinePub and see if this might possibly work

I don't think that a website would work for me, because I was thinking in something optional. Like: I want to share my shipping list with my family so everyone on it can edit it an add what we need to buy. But I didn't find a function on iCloud that allows me to share a file keeping its path (in this case /shortcuts/WTBuy). Dropbox allows to share a editable version of a file, but it also don't keep the file path and using Dropbox would be a negative impact in the speed of the shortcut

save file (enable overrite if exists), it might keep sharing settings

But it does not keep the same path on the iCloud that received the file. Example: if I share a .txt file that is in /shortcuts/WTBuy, it will not be in /shortcuts/WTBuy in their iCloud, so their Shortcut won't find the file.

I don't know if I explained it in the right way, so I made a drawing explaining what happens. The problem is that the file on the other person's iCloud is not in the same place that it is on my iCloud. My shortcut already uses "save file (enable overrite if exists)" and it keeps the same path when I save it in my device, but the problem start when I share it with other people: the file in their iCloud is not on /shortcuts/WTBuy, but in "shared documents". I don't think it can be changed, but I asked just to be sure.

base64 encoding the password would make it harder to read but not impossible, so i guess that’s one protection you can add. but for people familiar with shortcuts it would be easy to get around.

i see a lot of issues with it. not using the file management tools correctly, like saving a file without overwriting it if it exists, so multiple files are created. using dictionaries to create a json file structure and then saving it as txt. deleting the entire file after the user selects one email address to delete (and not actually deleting it because it’s the wrong file extension anyway). appending dictionaries to json files instead of setting a dictionary value of the file. getting a dictionary value from the shortcut input out never saving it to a variable or using it again. i haven’t got time to fix all of this but those are some places that you will want to look to get it working.

@tdevx Unfortunately this cannot work. You can link to something that is on that page. You can link to external things (like websites), but there’s no go back button. You cannot link to a shortcut, cause you’re locked inside that "show web page" window. If that would be possible I would have made dozens of shortcuts like that. — The only way something like that could be achieved is (I think): If you tap one of your cards, the URL gets copied to clipboard. After tapping Done the fetched URL will be pasted to a dedicated action…

to link to a shortcut you would have to base64 encode the url and open it in safari, makes the view not look as nice anymore
18:50
if only Show Web Page returned output
18:50
it just returns the input though sadly
18:51
the copy to clipboard would work though
18:52
just have it so when you tap an option it says "Press Done to continue"

ROP 🌈 0218YYYY-185253
I totally feel for you! I love HTML and CSS, work with it every day. It's like I said, I would have done so many shortcuts already, if that was possible. But remember: It's always worth learning something. 😉 But it's like you said: a shame! And yes, the layout looks great.

Just a tip: If, for example, the displayed images have a visible max width of 250px, then 500px images are sufficient, which you then display in half size. This way they will be sharply displayed on a retina display.

@ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) Yeah, I know that, you’re totally right, but I still often use @2x depending on the final size of the displayed images (and you can’t see a difference).

Technically @3x is correct, but in this case I would consider @2x sufficient. 😃

@AShortcuts Well, you should really take a closer look into the HTML template as there’s a lot going wrong. For example: The body tag opens twice, the section and the div are not closed… I don’t know how it should like but this is the result after deleting some code and closing everything. Even if you make errors in HTML, the result may be displayed correctly. This is handy, but it can make you not see some mistakes. Overall it’s a nice idea but if you're already doing the work of creating a layout in HTML and CSS, then it should/could look even nicer. 😉

Anyone know how to fix shortcut crashing issues? I was working on something on one device and when I was looking on the other one (both were running shortcuts at the same time), it was completely fine. But,whenever I was done on my iPad, shortcuts on iPhone is refusing to launch.. anyone know a fix without deleting the app?

Hi Brendan exactly the same happened to me this week, Firestone on my phone then iPad, fixed the phone by reinstalling the app, but had the to resort all my shortcuts, pain in the backside. Not sure it’s memory as I’m using the latest iPad Pro 1tb 12.9 if that can’t handle it nothing will?
Avatar
tdevx 0221YYYY-164456
You can have a ton of memory and still experience a memory leak. It just means the shortcut app didn’t discard old memory which can cause a crash. It’s the most common reason for something crashing at random intervals

ROP 🌈 0222YYYY-121933
@AShortcuts You’re right, I’ve used the same actions inside MediaKit Badges. Technically the order of my actions above does work to, but instead of choosing icons from a list of your shortcuts, you choose from a list of all icons. That’s the difference. Both work. 😉
12:25
@tdevx That must be possible, otherwise MediaKit Badges wouldn’t work with your shortcuts icons. But wait! You were asking me in a comment underneath that Shortcut on RoutineHub, right? I forgot answering you, sorry. Well, it works. This is the same technique with the same actions. You’re just experiencing some performance issues. I’ve wrote about that on the RoutineHub page of MediaKit (and I know there’s a lot to read). I tested that badge shortcut about 100 times and 4 times it failed. But of course I’m sorry to hear it doesn’t work for you. Have you reinstalled it? Some users have experienced that the more often you use it, the better it gets.

You’know how when you update shortcuts, they need to link their shortcut to another one or make a file for another shortcut to find? This literally fetches updates for every single shortcut that has the correct comment action at the top

This shortcut was designed to remove some of the bloat from Shortcuts that receive regular updates
22:40
such shade
22:41
gotta say though, parsing every single shortcut in the library is going to be very inefficient for users with large libraries...
22:41
and for your question earlier about multi-decimal number comparisons, it is a beast to have to put in a shortcut. it took a TON of actions in updatekit to make it work. it's no small feat

@Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) it’s no offense to your great work with UpdateKit, but I’m researching ways to make keeping Shortcuts up-to-date easier for authors to add and manage and without a separate dependency to rely on. I’m still forming the idea in my brain and might include some new API endpoints.
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0223YYYY-133121
that would be cool. like an endpoint where they pass the version and you return whether there’s an update?
Avatar
tdevx 0223YYYY-133206
I wasn’t throwing any hate towards UpdateKit, I currently use it in all of my shortcuts

@Harley Hicks The other day I was actually thinking about a php+js method of doing what http://www.mikebeas.com/updatekit/UpdateKit.js does but with routinehub support haha
Avatar
Harley Hicks 0223YYYY-133344
@tdevx I was more talking about what I was saying about possibly deprecating UpdateKit as a dependcy for RoutinePub.
13:34
@Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) you have my ear 🤔
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0223YYYY-133443
well basically it’s a php GET call that fetches the metadata from the updatekit endpoint at RH and then passes it into a JS variable that displays the data on the page when called
13:35
essentially replacing the client-side XHR with a php curl to avoid browser-based CORS issues
13:36
i’ll write it up this evening while i’m working on an updatekit update and send it to you if i can get it working. might be a cool piece of code to distribute to RH users!
13:40
there will always be a market for updatekit for people who want to self host their shortcuts, but i say if RH has an update endpoint that’s great too. you have a solid advantage in that you have all the version data in a centralized location. before RH and similar sites were around there was no way for people to build the infrastructure themselves to do that sort of thing without a billion steps in their shortcut.

xAlien95 0223YYYY-134627
@Harley Hicks what do you mean with deprecating UpdateKit as a dependency? I never used RoutinePub/UpdateKit/RoutineHub (I don't even know what some of them actually are, I never published a Shortcut) so I could probably be out of context. Do you mean you would like to let users to get notifications of new available versions of their Shortcuts without running any Shortcut at all?
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0223YYYY-134703
have routinepub use the routhinehub updater instead of updatekit I assume
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0223YYYY-134722
UpdateKit checks the currently running shortcut for updates. His endpoint would do the same but without relying on UpdateKit to be installed on the user’s phone.
Avatar
xAlien95 0223YYYY-134741
If every user use your database and you know every Shortcut they have, you could set up a Discord bot to notify users whenever a new version gets uploaded
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0223YYYY-134744
@ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) I would for sure do that if the endpoint existed
Avatar
xAlien95 0223YYYY-134817
No version comments in Shortcuts, no dictionaries, no Shortcuts to be run just to check if a newer version is available

https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/d649493769ca49db83dba9799c1a80dc how long does this version take? This doesn’t require the comment to be at the top
14:01
Make sure you force the refresh though
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0223YYYY-140231
15 seconds
14:02
doesn't that time depend on how many shortcuts you have that support updatehub?
14:02
most are filtered out by the if contains
Avatar
tdevx 0223YYYY-140338
Essential yes, that’s why I filtered the results to only where the UpdateHub comment was
14:03
If there’s a few that support it, it would take a lot longer I believe
14:04
The refresh is what updates your shortcut database with their current versions, this refresh can happen in any predefined time and isn’t required every time as when you update a shortcut the database is also updated (edited)
14:06
Is shouldn’t be worth having a longer refresh in favour of placing the comment anywhere as it’s not going to interfere with anything in the shortcut
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0223YYYY-140647
can you put other text in the comment at the top before updatehub data?
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0223YYYY-140649
so what if you hit the install button on an update but then don’t actually install it? the db gets updated to say you did and doesn’t check for updates again?

ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0223YYYY-140705
cfu has that problem too, it will figure it out eventually (edited)

@Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) yes that’s correct, it will update again when the next refresh happens (edited)
14:08
What would you like to include in the comment @ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL)
14:08
If you wanted extra lines in the comment it would just be a case of extending the get lines variable to compensate (edited)

ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0223YYYY-140927
I usually have my shortcuts formatted like
setVariable (v:Input) comment | Made by pfg | https://routinehub.co/user/pfg | /u/pfg___ | @pfg#4865
14:09
I'm wondering if I can put updatehub below that in the comment
14:09
I can just move the set variable below the comment, that part is not an issue (edited)
Avatar
tdevx 0223YYYY-141109
That would be possible yes, currently the only lines fetched from the shortcut is the comment box you add for UpdateHub. BUT this could easily be changed to the first 50 lines which would essentially do as you’d like (edited)
14:13
This version will get the first 50 lines, does it have a performance impact in comparison to the version on RoutineHub?

So I checked, you can have a comment box at the top of your shortcut with the follow text
Made by pfg https://routinehub.co/user/pfg /u/pfg___ @pfg#4865 RoutineHubUpdate Current Version: "0.15" RoutineHub ID: "2066" RoutineHubUpdate
And it returns the shortcut with no problems at all

@Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) (sorry for the @) I’ve modified your UpdateEngine script to work with my Shortcut. I’ve changed a few things but most of the hard work was achieved by you.

UsageKit: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/77a614150d094a88830d54f8f4b310ab Demo: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/727f8b37560a475cb12cfbc1ee54e286 It’s very early days but it works well (I think). There’s a lot of UI changes I want to make before I publish it to RoutineHub. I don’t even want to think about the write up I’ll have to do for the implementation. In basic terms this is all you do to implement it: Change the text to whatever you need and {{NUM}} will be where the usage shows
Shortcut Name Usage Name {{NUM}} any text you like
For an example of the correct layout, see the demo shortcut (edited)

Does it display more than the number of times the shortcuts have been used? If not, then the use of the word Kit in this context may be somewhat exaggerated? I think we should all not exaggerate the use of the term Kit and question when it makes sense to use it. (At MediaKit e.g. I decided to use this term in the style of a classic Media Press Kit.)
12:19
Just an idea… 😉
Avatar
tdevx 0225YYYY-121925
I understand that @ROP 🌈 , this can actually be used to track anything. For example I can implement this twice into my YouTube shortcut, one to track how many times I run the shortcut (this function will be required) and another to track how many videos I automatically add to a playlist etc
12:20
The usage name section is to label whatever you’re tracking, then any text around {{NUM}} will be a brief description. When it runs the shortcut it keeps a record of how many times this usage has been run (edited)
12:22
I still want to change the name anyway, UsageKit just doesn’t have much of a ring to it

ROP 🌈 0225YYYY-122237

Yes, but it would impact the performance

Actually, if I were to include a way to group them together in 1 text action it would need to be repeated inside the shortcut anyway. So the performance would be the same either way

@Luana (@Luana) I’ve added a way to group them together as requested https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/e8ba2705c2ff4d87a137eca4812b7a48

Thanks! I shouldn't have suggested it coz it takes more time then having to run it 2 times tought, sorry about that

It will take the same amount of time either way

Each will have its use I suppose. 1 input is perfect for monitoring the amount of times a shortcut runs

Is there any fast way to detect if the device that's running the shortcut is connect to the internet and skip some actions if it is not connected or with a bad internet speed?

tdevx 0225YYYY-155551
There is, I believe it’s something to do with checking an IP address. I can’t remember, I need to check for UpdateHub

Just to get this straight. Shortcutslang is a way to make Shortcuts on a computer?

shortcutslang tries to look similar to how you would write a shortcut if you were writing it in text
21:29
and it also gives some extra features to set variables more easily and put actions inside actions

for example actions that don't exist, action values that don't exist, variables that don't exist

21:32
also there's some online documentation with a list of all actions and parameters https://pfgithub.github.io/shortcutslang/

Before, I copied the plist and split the actions and added them to var and used that var inside a text action with the rest of the plist. So I can select preset filters and generate a shortcut

nothing else, it's an issue with all input fields

shortcuts uses a special character in place of variables that probably isn't allowed in an input field

you might be able to replace another character with the special one using javascript

How?

go to a computer and encode the copied plist as base64

tdevx 0227YYYY-092449
Oh, okay

tdevx 0227YYYY-093532
Like this? Or..
Image attachment
09:36
Because there an issue where they overlap and won’t land on separate lines, which makes shortcuts think it’s an invalid file
Image attachment
09:43
What character is being removed? It may be the editor I’m using 😅
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0227YYYY-094350
@tdevx the overlap is just the quick look action wrapping the text
09:44
what I meant was to paste the shortcut into a base64 encoder on a computer and paste the base64 into the text action
09:44
shortcuts is using the character "Unicode Character 'OBJECT REPLACEMENT CHARACTER' (U+FFFC)" in place of variables
Avatar
tdevx 0227YYYY-094525
I can’t copy the whole shortcut, I want to split a group of actions and go through a process of choosing which groups I want in the template
09:45
If that makes sense
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0227YYYY-094540
yeah
09:45
so take the whole shortcut and base64 encode it
09:46
once you decode you'll be able to use it like normal text

tdevx 0227YYYY-094652
So I can split it manually and paste the decoded text into the box?

So I’m somewhat working on another Shortcut, with the sole purpose of quickly generating a template filled with the things you usually have in every Shortcut. So far I only have UpdateHub and CFU (I plan on adding UpdateKit also). I’m just curious as to what people usually add to every shortcut?

You can’t unfortunately, I had to do some trickery to make this work. I had to send the webpage to safari using base64 and when I selected an item on the page, have text copied to the clipboard, then use the shortcuts url scheme to send me back to shortcuts. It’s a very tedious setup

Brendan 🦿 0308YYYY-142030
From UpdateKits documentation: Please be aware that in versions of UpdateKit earlier than 3.0, Shortcuts does not handle version numbers with multiple decimals. It sees 1.0.1 as equal to 1.0. I recommend using only one decimal in your version numbers, if you use any. Additionally, 1.10 would be seen as equal to 1.1 and thus would not prompt the user to update. To avoid this, you should use only one digit beyond the decimal. Unfortunately, this means that in many cases a Facebook-style 1.0 » 2.0 » 3.0 version number system for even minor updates might be the most suitable for older versions of UpdateKit. Due to limitations of the Shortcuts app, you should not use more than one digit past the decimal in your version numbers. If you publish version 2.01 and then later release version 2.2, users in countries that use commas in place of decimals will not be able to get 2.2 or any other update. This is because their Shortcuts app ignores decimals when doing math calculations, causing 2.2 to render as 22 and 2.01 to render as 201 where the number 201 is always greater than 22. This causes UpdateKit to believe it is running a newer version and not show the available update. If only one digit past the decimal is used (and used consistently -- 2.0 instead of 2), then UpdateKit will still work in these countries because it will see the number 21 for 2.1 as being greater than the number 20 for 2.0.

That’s probably why it doesn’t work @ROP 🌈 by the sounds of things most country’s are different. That’s why we call it a postal code, because that’s what post men use, not street names as we have a lot of street names the same.

Here the postal code is used to delimit a rough delivery area. The street names (which occur only once per city) further delimit the area. The house number is the last part that allows the correct delivery, then in combination with the name on the door.

I can search for a postcode using maps, but it doesn’t specify where on the map the house is. If I enter the full address the pin it placed directly on top of the correct house. But I can’t search using a house number and a postcode. So unfortunately I’ll need to enter the full address (edited)

Group FaceTime is disabled on any version lower then 12.1.4, but a tweak will be probably released to reactivate it I'd suggest you to downgrade to 12.1.3, it'll take a while to be jailbroken, but a 12.1.3 jailbreak will be probably released before the 12.1.4 one.

Perfect - Thanks @ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) - so the assumption is that there are always 7 days in the week (yes i know that sounds stupid, but I need to write it out! LOL) and 7 - 2 (today is day 2 of the week) and that gives me 5 days.

are you sure it's just /api and not /api/something

also you don't need quotes around the values in headers

the quotes are for json but shortcuts has a visual thing so you don't need the quotes

without the quotes i was getting login failures.

This is the example that they provide in their documentation https://your_crm_domain_name/api/resource_name

I’m trying to build a shortcut that will install shortcuts you generated witht the scpl editor that you saved into a /builds/ folder in iCloud Drive from the scpl editor to quickly test them.
09:21
so here's like a model of how it's supposed to work in concept to help explain
09:21
>Write shortcut in SCPL Editor
Download & Save to iCloud Drive (builds/)
>Run Shortcut >Get contents of /builds/ >Prompt to choose .shortcut file
Install or Share
>(if install) Prompt user to add shortcut via import-shortcut link by base64 encoding the shortcut file and using data:text/shortcut rather than providing a url (icloud doesn't give you a direct file download link via getlinktofile, just a download page link) (edited)
09:22
The problem I can see is getfile doesn't seem to be giving me the shortcut file contents to make a base64 version of the file for the data: url.

@stutterz36 this YouTube shortcut works I used it yesterday https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/0516697809d4488f8297e5bd10f5c8ea you have to copy the link and paste it into the shortcut thought because it wouldn’t work from share sheet

@FatherCRO I have an answer for your issue. Any shortcut using Get Current IP Address is having that issue to due some sort of certificate issue on Apple’s end. Unfortunately UpdateKit relies on that action to determine if you have an internet connection, so anything using UpdateKit is returning that error until Apple fixes it

FatherCRO 0316YYYY-040259
@Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) Thank you! I figured it was an Apple-side issue when I saw this: https://www.osstatus.com/search/results?platform=all&framework=all&search=-9807

You could for example implement a copy to clipboard function inside that HTML file, copy the value with it and afterwards put a get my clipboard action inside that shortcut.

Quick question - i'm trying to modify this shortcut - https://routinehub.co/shortcut/1795 to be able to send a message to my existing contact that use Telegram.
RoutineHub - Telegram Send Message
Send any message to any phone number
Thumbnail
09:02
but when i run it, it won't identify the contact and it didn't send my test message. I'm guessing because i need to make the contact number into 1 string including the area code and such....
09:02
but the part that confuses me is that I can send a message with only the 10 digits that I have in my contact....

regex: \( - matches the open parenthesis ( starts a capturing group (for the $1 $2 $3 thing) \d - captures a number {3} 3 times ) ends the capturing group \) matches the closing parenthesis \s - matches whitespace + - one or more times ( starts a capturing group ($2) \d - captures a number {3} 3 times ) ends the capturing group - - matches a dash ( starts a capturing group ($3) \d - captures a number {3} 3 times ) ends the capturing group (edited)

would it be like +1 (123) 456-789

It’s much easier than that https://www.paypal.me/TonyDudley?locale.x=en_GB you just need to create a paypal.me Address in PayPal, I have been lucky enough to have received some.
Pay Anthony Dudley using PayPal.Me
Go to paypal.me/TonyDudley and type in the amount. Since it’s PayPal, it's easy and secure. Don’t have a PayPal account? No worries.

Can someone look at my shortcut and try to fix the Search Giphy & Share bit for me? After you choose a GIF, it’s supposed to bring up a menu to change the speed of the GIF like most of other bits, but I can’t figure out how to do it for this one. 😦

The guy who helps me with my shortcut doesn’t help me too much. He just throws me hints on how what to do to fix problems. But a lot of times I don’t understand what to do.
15:37
He told me this earlier, “The way all your other Gif bits work is they take the individual frames that make up a gif and save them to the variable ‘Gif’. The search Giphy bit gets a gif as a whole, not the individual frames, therefore it saves them to the ‘Gif Speed’ variable. As the image is already a gif, you can only change the speed by splitting it into the frames.”

As I'm traveling and can't work on FarDrop right now, I'll start a new shortcut. It'll be called "Fast Update". Yes, I know: "another shortcut with the same functionality", but it will be way less complex then the existing ones. I'm creating it with the intention of being very fast so it can be run at the start of your shortcut without big performance impacts.

G30 0329YYYY-164548

I’m already working on some changes for my v3.0 update.
16:46
v3.0 Change log: - Fixed ‘Flip GIF (Mirror GIF) change speed option. I’m not sure why this was broken in v2.9 update, but I did notice it. Also fixed the ‘Make GIF’ speed which was set to 0 seconds. Changed to 0.3 seconds (Default Speed option).

So if someone wanted to just share a gif from their gallery using my shortcut, they can without having to convert something to a gif, change the speed of it, and then share.
17:13
I might just have to copy and paste all the share options from my shortcut to the new share options menu. But like.. ehhhhhh (edited)

oh yeah lists are horrible
23:25
adding and removing items at an index from a list is around 100 actions of my icon list shortcut
23:25
it makes it a bit easier if you always keep an item "---" in a list and filter it out when needed, that way you can easily use it in set dictionary value without an extra check (edited)

@AShortcuts because I’m working on them and doing them myself, I like to have something that is very exclusive. ROP made mediakit video players because of a shortcut I was working on that I shared with ROP! I no longer have any mediaKit in my Web Services routinehub Page!!!

ROP 🌈 0416YYYY-131400
@AShortcuts Just to be clear: I didn't create MediaKit Video Players because @Kindred98 developed a similar shortcut. It‘s not comparable to MediaKit Video Players in any way. I have and had ideas for MediaKit that I didn't communicate. MediaKit Video Players is nothing more than a logical extension of the collection and I had the idea before. It can happen again and again that two people have the same thought. And that's perfectly all right. — Which surprises me much more: You @Kindred98 say that you no longer use MediaKit graphics for your Web Services shortcut page. You're right about that. But to be honest (without hurting you): Why do the new graphics all look like bad copies of MediaKit? I can't see anything really unique. Even the badge is a bad copy. I don't want to judge it, but it's a little weird how you talk about it. But maybe I‘m getting it wrong. And of course I don't want to spoil the mood. 😉

Hi @Deleted User please find out more about MediaKit here: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/1911 Well, that’s strange. Normally you just have to put an @ sign before the user name.

Okay so now when I run the shortcut and go to convert to gif options and select photo to gif, it just runs the shortcut again.
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0416YYYY-225503
I think I told you to put nothing instead of exit shortcut
22:55
At the bottom of the function, put Exit Shortcut
22:55
so when it ends it ends the shortcut and goes back to the one that was running it instead of running the shortcut again
Avatar
G30 0416YYYY-225613
Same thing happens. (edited)
22:56
Could it be because for the run shortcut action, I have it set to the text variable name of shortcut?

yeah you should do that
22:57
no that's unrelated
22:58
what you took a screenshot of looks correct
22:59
you can put a show result at the top to make sure Input function is correct. It should be "Photos to GIF" after you press the button.

was that before or after you pressed photos to gif?

So I enter what then?
23:01
There’s no variable I can choose
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0416YYYY-230154
also by the way your shortcut will be very difficult to convert to functions because setting a variable inside a function won't change it outside. You have to change all the set variables you want to keep into a dictionary before exit shortcut...
23:02
so the check for updates variable won't do anything and the happy variable won't do anything and the gif or video? variable won't do anything

replace the show result with quick look at the top and run the shortcut again

change orientation of gif will get shorter as you move the options into new functions, the whole shortcut will get longer though because of the added ifs and run shortcuts

@G30 before an exit shortcut action you can put any information you want to return. So to return your variables, put a dictionary Dictionary{ MyVar1: (myvar1) MyVar2: (myvar2) } ExitShortcut now this will return something, but it will go into the void because you don't use it. After each run shortcut you have to unpack this data and set your variables RunShortcut ... GetDictionaryValue MyVar1 SetVariable myvar1 GetVariable (Run Shortcut) GetDictionaryValue MyVar2 SetVariable myvar2
17:25
that's a bit long and tedious, you can see why you might not want to return every variable every time and instead just pick the ones that matter

Would these dictionary values be the name of the set variable actions, or literally the variables in the dictionary themselves?

If you make a dictionary with a variable value, the value will be the text/number inside that variable. If you make a dictionary with a string value, the value will be the string you typed in
20:47
Text "Hello there" SetVariable "ValueForA" Dictionary {A: "ValueForA", C: D} Get Dictionary Value "A" Set Variable MyVar // MyVar is "ValueForA" Text "Hello there" SetVariable "ValueForA" Dictionary {A: (variable ValueForA), C: D} Get Dictionary Value "A" Set Variable MyVar // MyVar is "Hello there"

No. It being set to 0 doesn’t check for updates.

Every menu option.
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0417YYYY-213722
ok so first you're going to want to move it so that only one choose photo is used and it does it for all menu options
21:37
to do that:
21:37
inside of the dictionary before a run shortcut, you can add another item gif: (gif variable)

But that can’t really work either. I use the Find Photos Where action with certain filters for some of them. 😦 (edited)

then inside the menu item instead of choosing a photo you can Get Variable (Input at key "gif")

so just for the color effects, presets and filters option?

G30 0417YYYY-214305
Those are the variables mostly used through the whole shortcut
21:44
Gif gets the created gif from all the options I think. GIF or Video? has a text action above stating whether it is a GIF or Video. Check for Updates 📲 tells the shortcut to not check for updates. And Happy is before the share options asking if you are happy with your GIF or Video.
Avatar
G30 0417YYYY-215358
@G30 before an exit shortcut action you can put any information you want to return. So to return your variables, put a dictionary Dictionary{ MyVar1: (myvar1) MyVar2: (myvar2) } ExitShortcut now this will return something, but it will go into the void because you don't use it. After each run shortcut you have to unpack this data and set your variables RunShortcut ... GetDictionaryValue MyVar1 SetVariable myvar1 GetVariable (Run Shortcut) GetDictionaryValue MyVar2 SetVariable myvar2

Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0417YYYY-220055
you might've asked for the gif inside a function. now you need to save it into a variable so you can use it outside the function
22:01
and if you need to use it inside another function, you need to pass it in inside the dictionary above the run shortcut action
Avatar
G30 0417YYYY-220326
I’m assuming it’s the first option.
22:03
Where would I need to save it into a variable?
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0417YYYY-220351
if it's inside one function and it needs to leave, it needs to go out through the exit dictionary
22:04
you can actually put a gif variable inside a dictionary value (even though it may not seem like it because it says string type)
22:05
ok that's good
22:05
now after you do the dictionary run shortcut do you Get Variable (Run shortcut) Get Dictionary Value "Gif" Set Variable "Gif"

exactly the same as what's in the if statement

it just needs to be exactly the same everywhere you use it

I would recommend using letter only names instead of having special characters and spaces and commas and bold letters but it shouldn't matter as long as it's exact

Is there any way I can remove the need for those 3 variables, (GIF or Video, Check for Updates, & Happy) for pretty much every option in my shortcut and have it set just once somewhere, but to work with all it needs to work with? (edited)
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0418YYYY-185153
you could... always check for updates at the end of the shortcut instead of using a variable

I have no clue what Happy and Gif or video do so not sure if you can remove those

I don’t wanna interfere, but maybe this shortcut could help. I have rebuilt it in such a way that it uses the same terms that you @G30 use in your shortcut. It demonstrates the back button function.

Not sure if you guys have noticed already, but I have deleted most screenshots of my shortcut that I’ve posted here, as well as any iCloud links of my shortcut that I’ve posted here in this channel.

But this one is different. It’s connected to the trim and speed options in a way.
22:06
Also, UpdateKit actions are below all of it. The very bottom pretty much.
22:08
The change speed option and the share menu uses the variable Gif Speed.
22:08
But the trimming option uses the variable Gif.
22:08
Idk. It’s complicated. 😦

i don’t understand the issue. pick which section of code you want to go to and just use an if statement to go to that.

Sorta? I would suggest deleting it from Shortcuts and removing any files from the Files app and installing the latest version again from RoutineHub to see if that helps
02:31
If that doesn't fix it, I'm not sure what else the issue could be. If it's working with other Shortcuts the issue may be with your Shortcut and not Copy Paste
Avatar
G30 0420YYYY-023146
I’ve done that a few times I believe. The version I showed in the video is v6.0 (not released).

Maybe I need to fresh install CopyPaste Actions again. But I doubt that would fix it either.

The issue can't be with CopyPaste if it's only your Shortcut it doesn't work with

G30 0420YYYY-023822
Also, before I pointed this issue out to you, I did remove everything from the Shortcuts folder in files. Ran all the shortcuts in my library to install all the necessary files back as well.
02:39
I just deleted the CopyPaste Actions and CopyPaste Actions Parser shortcut and installed it fresh from RoutineHub here: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/500

02:41
There’s feedback on the RoutineHub page for the shortcut. It has to be an issue with CopyPaste Actions. 😦
02:42
@indonato Member Recently the installer stopped working unless you run it from the edit view. Click the dots on "Install CopyPaste Actions" in the shortcuts app to see the actions and press the blue play button at the top, and it should work. Documentation is in the post in r/workflow by the original author u/schl3ck. Try a web search for "Cut, copy & paste actions" and it should be a top hit. Reply · 5 months, 1 week ago
02:42
So in edit view it actually installs them. Ok..
Avatar
tdevx 0420YYYY-024340
I can replicate the issue, but I'm not sure what the issue is. All I can see is that when it begins to run the CopyPaste Parser it throws that error. My knowledge of JavaScript isn't the best so I would reach out to the creator or see if pfg could take a look (I didn't want to @ him). There is something within your Shortcut that disagrees with CopyPaste and until you know what is interfering I'm not sure how to fix it. Sorry I can't be more help. (edited)

G30 0420YYYY-024505

You could try converting your Shortcut to an ScPL file and export it back to a .Shortcut to see if that fixes the error. It's a shot in the dark but worth a try

It could be the same issue with CopyPaste, if pfg could figure out which dictionary is causing the issue you could remove/modify it

Or you could compare v4.8 and v4.9 and try figure out which change is causing the issue (edited)

I’d rather not do that. Any update I push out usually has a lot of changes. 🥴

It works. @Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) Well surprisingly, umm well idek. But thanks. That makes things a little easier I guess. 😅
16:06
I slightly didn’t expect your solution to work considering I have the variable Check for Updates 📲 that’s set to 0 everywhere. Lol. Tells the shortcut to not check for updates at those parts.

16:10
@Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) Btw, UpdateHub only checks for updates in my shortcut the first time it is ran, and then after that, every 24 hours after the last run. Something like that.
16:14
I’m honestly thinking that this completely eliminates the need for my variable Check for Updates 📲
16:14
And if so, then that’s a good way to cut back on a good chunk of code not needed anymore.
Avatar
G30 0420YYYY-164009
Well that works. Since both of the variables Check for Updates 📲 and Happy used the number 0 for the trimming options, change speed options, & Share options. I completely eliminated the need for the variable Check for Updates 📲 and just used the variable Happy here: to get those options to work again properly.
Avatar
G30 0420YYYY-170659
@Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) Using UpdateHub to Check for Updates is now optional in my shortcut. If you don’t have it installed, it’ll ask you if you’d like to install UpdateHub. If you select no, it’ll save a file to your iCloud Drive with your preference.

Ohhh I’m onto something!
06:28
@ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) I changed something, more so added the variable Happy to the dictionary key and value. Also added it in the function. Now it still doesn’t work the first time. But when the shortcut is ran again from the very last run shortcut action (very bottom at the shortcut) it now brings up the trim, change speed, and share options!
06:29
Wait xD. So I got it working then.

Does the base64 encode action need to be set to decode? (The one at the bottom of the shortcut).

Prompting the user to install UpdateHub is due to implementation, if it still forces you to install it, that's no issue with UpdateHub
Avatar
nikond3 (Control Centre) 0422YYYY-043036
No it’s the issue of the shortcut, to correct you can use a Boolean in the first Dictionary with a true or false import question, press the 3 dots where you would share the shortcut you will see the question on that panel. Your if then needs to change to true to use or false not to use.
Avatar
tdevx 0422YYYY-043254
Not at all, it's a simple if else, if the user says no, set dictionary and only run UpdateHub if the user says yes (edited)

can zapier grab from icloud? - basically i'm not really interested in using dropbox and would rather use icloud, but willing to look at google sheets.

if you run a shortcut, shortcuts can read the file

right.... so basically right now, i'm capturing the data, saving it (or appending) a csv file. I would love to have it written to excel or numbers, but I think i might add another IF statement and have it done at the end of the week, but i'd rather not have 4 sheets a month.

with zapier you could append to a google sheet from the data you are putting in the csv

how would zapier grab that file? icloud wouldn't be the spot to save it right?

Well. I tried to set up UpdateHub in my new shortcut pretty much exactly how I have it set up in ALL THE GIFs! But the problem is, in my new shortcut, every time it is ran, it checks for updates. And it also creates a new update file every time. 🤣

It was a simple fix, you just had a few actions in the wrong place. Move the two actions that update the updates.json file above the Text Box and Run Shortcut Actions for UpdateHub, then your issue should be fixed. And.. you need to make sure that you enable Overwrite ☺️

So I am wanting to allow people to add their own gifs into the GIF Gallery shortcut I’m working on. The thing is, the gif chosen will have to be base 64 encoded. Then the encoded gif’s text will need to be added into a dictionary value. Is there any way I could make this happen?

Yes, Choose Photos > Base64 Encode > Dictionary

@G30 You could take a look at My MediaKit. It stores the graphics in a json file. My MediaKit does not back up the Base64 version, but the Imgur link including Markdown, but the principle remains the same.

what you’re doing does not make any sense. you declare a dictionary show a notification run what is presumably UpdateKit then just show an alert after running updatekit that says there are no updates (edited)
09:28
then later there’s an if that checks to see if a menu contains updatekit and then creates a text box that says updatekit and checks to see if that box says up to date?

Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0509YYYY-093125
you’re making this super complicated and it doesn’t need to be
09:32
why do you have a text box that says updatekit, for example? think about why each part of your process is there and remove anything that doesn’t work toward the goal. look critically each step and what step comes before it. think about what input is being passed into each action.
09:33
i would recommend against giving the user the option of checking for updates for a different shortcut, too.
09:33
you cannot guarantee inside one shortcut what the current version of the other shortcut is

@G30 the reason it continues is because you need an exit shortcut action after every run shortcut (that runs ALL THE GIFs!) if it doesn’t have an output. The Shortcut that is running “check for updates” exits and then the initial shortcut that was ran, continues running. This would definitely sound confusing if I read this so I don’t expect you to understand this. (edited)

You can make another dictionary and run UpdateKit but this would not be preferable since when you will update the Shortcut, you will have to change the version number in both Shortcuts

@G30 it seems the dictionary value you're getting to get translations is the one you input into translatekit and not the one you output, it's best to set the 'Get dictionary from input' to a variable, I probably need to put that in the example cause I can understand how on a large scale that would get confusing and it's more likely the variable will show up on your keyboard too

you really don’t even need the get dictionary from input item if you don’t want it. it’s redundant.

although having it there might make the variable automatically detect the correct type later. so you may just want to leave it

@G30 Just makes it a lot easier to keep track of which dictionary it is, at the very least to make sure it's not the one that was inputted, magic variables are nice but can confuse you but another thing u can do is go into the dictionary and rename it so when it pops up as a magic variable it's translatekit or text, etc. I'm sure you might be able to do it how mike said, just rename the run shortcut action by tapping on it to make it easier to know it's that run shortcut action (edited)

definitely dictionary. you need to pass input plus a function name to your shortcut so it’s gotta be a dictionary.

Someone wanna help debug? https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/29e14f9ba8494369807b74793bf5c130 I have not updated this shortcut in months and I’m pretty sure a shortcuts update broke something.

you probably have dictionary keys that have dots in them. you have to replace the dots with something else. dots are now use to access nested values

that number is the current version so the updater knows what version is installed

then the updater will compare the current version (in the dictionary) with the published one (on routinehub)

without negative lookbehind/ahead you can do that with capturing groups ([A-Za-z])\.([A-Za-z]) replace with $1$2

([A-Za-z]).([A-Za-z]) gets the last char of the first word, the dot and the first char of the second word

@VanishingTacos Why are the languages loaded externally by Dropbox? Why aren't the dictionaries simply integrated into the shortcut? By the way: German has probably been translated automatically? The result is a small catastrophe... this is in any case in many places no real German and there are numerous wrong words. I can provide you with a real German translation if you want. 😉
Avatar
VanishingTacos 0528YYYY-103953
@ROP 🌈 It was hard coded in at one point but making it rely on dropbox it made it much easier to fix simple spelling and grammar issues without pushing entire updates. If you want to help translate that would be great! I could make a shortcut to auto add the the translations into a .json. (edited)
Avatar
VanishingTacos 0528YYYY-105036
Well I would make a shortcut if I knew how to loop though everything.
Avatar
ROP 🌈 0528YYYY-105042
I had that thought, too! So you're saying that you can update the languages data without updating the shortcut? That's because your Dropbox link points directly to a file that you can change (without changing the link)? I'm only asking because I thought that the Dropbox link always had to be re-created when a file changed. Does this apply to all files? So if I exchange a ZIP file, can it be accessed (assuming the name is identical) via the old dropbox link? That would be great! So I could change some things on certain shortcuts, where I would like to intervene from the outside, without having to offer an update of the shortcut. Well, the first thing I have to do is find out what is meant in some places. I will have a look at the original English version and then I know what is meant. The German is partly really so bad to understand that the whole function is not understandable. But German is not a simple language, I know.
10:52
I think it's enough and the easiest way if I just deliver the json to you in real German. 😉
Avatar
VanishingTacos 0528YYYY-105709
I am pretty sure that completely swapping out a file wont work for another and last I check modified files will still use the same link with having to update it in the shortchut.
10:57
That is I really have not played with it in 6 months so idk if they broke that.

I wouldn’t say rude. He’s being outright with you. It’s obvious that what it’s doing isn’t working as you expect it to. Since your shortcut is function based, you will have to call the function. I’m not an expert at it, so if you need help, you can possibly ask @ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 😅 (edited)

Idek. It was a text action with the word Video in it, Set Variable Video. Get Variable Video, if equals video blah blah blah

It was over 25 actions to do it that way.

Avatar
tdevx 0605YYYY-091539
My main issue atm is existing actions that have been converted don’t update the inputs when they’re moved. When you place new actions and move them about they update. I do however like that you can manually set an input on any action using magic variables which essentially replaces all of my get variable actions (edited)
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0605YYYY-091622
I think the ^ in ScPL is going to become a shorthand for input= instead of a thing that puts actions in certain places
Avatar
tdevx 0605YYYY-091636
And I agree, I HATE it when shortcuts basically spazzes out when you set a magic variable
09:17
Apple really need to fix that
09:17
And the iCloud issue, it’s tedious changing everything to Dropbox just to work on my shortcuts ready for release

UpdateHub is essentially ready, I just need an alternative method to “install” the updates as iCloud links are broken

(I'll use this as an example - https://routinehub.co/shortcut/2279) When you click "Get Shortcut", it goes to a "download" route that allows me to track downloads (for counting) (https://routinehub.co/download/8578) which redirects to the icloud link (https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/c25e1539eb924b0f8fc1594dbaaf0d2a)

Ah, well, on iOS, the link is, well, linked to the Shortcuts app. When Safari sees that link, it automatically opens the App. Similar to it opening Twitter or FB when you click a link for those sites in Safari.
09:29
I'm not sure how that works within shortcuts though

I think I've proven how easy Flexbox is. Two lines of CSS are enough to center the button. 😉

@tdevx Ok, so it's definitely not the right approach, but if you set the height at the top to 80%, for example, it should look more or less the way you want it to, right?

Sorry, I misspoke. Leave the height at the top at 100%, but change the height of the button to 80%. The result is the same, but it's at least a bit more like what you should do. Still, this is not the ideal solution. But if it is enough for the moment, then leave it that way.

@tdevx By the way: I love Flexbox, but I work with it far too seldom, because I mainly work with WordPress in my everyday life. That's what my clients want. Just have a look at Flexbox and I think you will find the ideal solution for the button. 😉

so regarding installing shortcuts: tapping “open” on the shortcuts banner on an icloud sharing page works, tapping “open shortcut” or “get shortcut” or whatever does not you cannot import shortcut files directly (and even if you could, the new “untrusted” setting means it would fail using the default settings)

How can I pass an URL from one shortcut to an other?
19:54
For example, choose from menu. I select a menu item. It has an URL and then a run shortcut. In the other shortcut, I want to get the contents of the url and extract an archive.
Avatar
supermamon 0607YYYY-195601
make sure the other shortcut is set to Show In Share sheet so it can receive input
19:56
then use the Shortcut Input magic variable to get the url

I feel like this is only possible with Choose from list. 😦
Avatar
supermamon 0607YYYY-204813
if you want to keep using Choose From Menu, then add a text after each Case with the menu item name so your menu result will be the name.
20:48
otherwise, only Choose From List
Avatar
G30 0607YYYY-205121
I’ve changed it to choose from list. It works how I want it to for creating folders
20:51
But now I’m trying to figure out how to pass the urls to the other shortcut again.
20:52
In the first shortcut, If Equals (Menu item name), URL.
20:52
Run shortcut comes after the last End If. (edited)

Avatar
electricmilk (TranslateKit) 0612YYYY-211810
feels like the best way is to just get the system to output somewhat of an actual sentence, detect the language of it, prompt the user, and if it’s wrong, use a translate with microsoft with a “Ask when run” in the ‘to’ field, use that to translate hello, detect the language and run with it

For God's sake! You have to compress them all first! I know, you need bigger resolutions for the macOS wallpapers, but by compressing you can make a e.g. 250KB file out of a 5MB file without loss of quality! Please check for such a software!

Yeah, that's why I looked for free alternatives on the net. Btw: Don't just rely on the file size you get with the compression, but check carefully whether the images are really output without any visually visible loss of quality (e.g. no artifacts).

I think it’s because Swish is both the key and value.

If I renamed swish to something else in the list and dictionary key. But keep the value the same, I think it would work.
10:31
And I’m correct about that..

I can’t do a long video. Discord is weird with how they compress things.
01:50
It’s quite disappointing that I can’t do this with ‘Choose from Menu’ 😪
01:54
With this, I’m forced to create a dictionary with the keys and values and use choose from list. So it shows the values (integers), which doesn’t look so appealing to users.

Would that work fine with a vCard menu for the main menu?

supermamon 0703YYYY-193648
ah, no
19:37
but if you have the v:chosen_group_name from your vcard menu, then just take out line 2 & 3
19:38
but of course, I'm assuming that you would want to make the glyphs a vcard menu also
19:39
so you'd have to re-think your menu system

There’s Nothing actions at the end of all 4 of the shortcut icon shortcuts I’ve released over the past week. Works fine.
06:00
But I guess since I’m working to combine those 4 into one shortcut via choose from menu, Nothing actions won’t necessarily stop input from being passed.
06:00
So exit shortcut is necessary now.

The method I’m currently using to detect changes in TranslateHub is by counting the characters in the input and saved file and comparing them. If they’re the same, just grab the file and return it, if not re-translate and save. I was hoping that I could just compare two files, this way it will detect changes precisely. Guess not haha (edited)

IIUC the idea is to get a number of a string that you can easily compare to know which version is newer, isn't it?
Avatar
tdevx 0714YYYY-154117
It will convert 1.0-alpha-2 -> 1.0.1.2

atnbueno 0714YYYY-154143
and?
Avatar
tdevx 0714YYYY-154206
Then the output will go through a multi decimal version checker
15:42
That function is used twice for both the current version and the new version
Avatar
atnbueno 0714YYYY-154448
Maybe I'm not seeing something, but I'd use a big integer with 0-999 for each of major version, minor version, bugfix version, and betas (0-499 for alphas and 500-999 for betas, if you want)
15:45
1.0-alpha-2 → 1 000 000 002
15:47
Oh, Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER is 9 007 199 254 740 991 so I could go up to 9999 with the above (edited)
15:49
Oh, wait, alphas and betas should go before the final versions. Now I get about the negative numbers 😅
15:51
So... final versions end with 9999? Easier than substracting 😅
15:52
Alphas: 0-3999, betas: 4000-7999, RC: 8000-9998, GM: 9999 😁 (edited)

So yeah, I should go to sleep before I keep writing 😂

I would like to have a shortcut that takes the image URL from my clipboard and does a google image search with it. Then it would copy the name/title of the info box that shows up.
05:03
So for example, I have this link: https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/pokemon/images/4/49/Ash_Pikachu.png/
Thumbnail
05:03
Doing a image search will bring up this box:
Image attachment
05:04
It would have to copy the title/name, which in this case is “Pikachu”, to my clipboard.

@asp If you go to https://www.google.com/searchbyimage?&image_url=https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/pokemon/images/4/49/Ash_Pikachu.png/ with a desktop browser, you can right-click on that "Pikachu", and select the option "Inspect this element" (or something similar)

The corresponding HTML code is this:

11:36
A "regex" (regular expression) is a pattern to match the information you want (edited)
11:38
In this case, this regex should do the trick: <span>(.+?)</span>.+?<span.+?>(.+?)</span>
11:40
In Shortcuts you can do a Match Text action followed by a Get Group from Matched Text one (the "groups" are the fragments between parenthesis, "Pikachu" and "Pokémon" in your example) (edited)
11:41
Oh, and you can get the HTML with a Set Name action using the file name "html.txt" (although only the extension matters). (edited)

I need some help with my Twitch Streamer Statistics Shortcut.
01:34
First thing you need to do when pressing continue on the main menu is entering a Twitch Streamer’s username.
01:34
Twitch only allows usernames that contain alphanumeric characters in it.
01:35
I’m wondering if there’s a way I can create a dictionary with alphanumeric characters as the values. If a username is typed with any of those values, show an alert with the error, and re-run the shortcut.
01:35
Otherwise, the username is okay, go ahead and continue.

Anyways, that test shortcut works in a way that if the input text contains an “@“ symbol, it’ll show an alert stating it’s an alphanumeric character. But I want it to show the alert if any of the dictionary values are found in the text

@supermamon (last ping.. sorry.) would it be possible to add onto that Regex? For example, Twitch usernames can only be between 3-25 characters.
02:14
I have if statements that check for that already, but I’m just wondering.
Avatar
supermamon 0716YYYY-022318
[^a-zA-Z0-9] matches non-alphanumeric so you can't addon to that if it passes that you can do another match
GetVariable v:username MatchText pattern="[a-zA-Z0-9]{3,25}" If Equals v:username ShowAlert "OK" Otherwise ShowAlert "Not OK" End
Avatar
G30 0716YYYY-022450
So first, check for non-Alphanumeric characters, if it passes, count the username characters pretty much.

G30 0716YYYY-022512

02:30
That works perfectly. This is so much more effective than the 3 or 4 if statements I had in place to check for these types of things.
02:31
I had If Is less than 3, If Is Greater than 25, If Contains “@“, and If Contains “ “.
02:31
Those were taking up a lot of actions, and it was starting to get length if I continued any further.

@G30 Before offering 5200 options to the user, I suggest you ask for a text and then filter those options keeping only the ones that contains that text. An alternative would be to make them choose the first character, then the second, then the third, ... 36 options (26 letters + 10 digits) every time are manageable. 500 pages are most definitely not.

Menus in iOS 13 now have a search facility so if you made them in alphabetical order or on a Letter basis A,B,C etc that would be a better way to do it and you could ask what letter to search for and it’s going to run a hell of a lot quicker waiting for 5000 to build each time you run it will soon put people off your shortcut.

Not really shortcut help, but... I just got into shortcuts like last week, so I don’t really know much about the iOS 13 situation. I know that like iOS 13 shortcuts are like 25x better, but do shortcuts from iOS 12 work on iOS 13? If not is there any easy way to port them? My device is on iOS 12. Do shortcuts work on iOS 13 sometimes but not all the time? Please ping me with answers.

@e24 Shortcuts in iOS 12 works in iOS 13 if the shortcut in iOS doesn’t contain Get Variable action.

You will also need to change the variables in the actions depending on the shortcut

e24 0728YYYY-092121
Like just rechoose all the variables?
Avatar
Luana (@Luana) 0728YYYY-092124
@e24 I don't think so. It's just manually change the ifs and variables.
09:21
Yep. Just ifs and variables
Avatar
e24 0728YYYY-092233
And there’s no way to change it from iOS 12 to make it work? Also what is it that you would change with the ifs?
09:22
And by manually change the variables you mean change the set variable action?
Avatar
Luana (@Luana) 0728YYYY-092506
You will update and then open the old shortcut in iOS 13 Then just edit what's wrong
09:25
The variables are now inside each action, you may need to change them
09:27
ifs use different methods, you will need to change your "equals" to something in the new list You also will need to change the type of some variables

Open call: I am looking for testers for a new shortcut. If you are interested, you have to be aware that a free registration and the creation of an API key is necessary to test the shortcut. Furthermore, it would be important for me to know which email service (Gmail, AOL, GMX and so on) you use. Of particular interest are email addresses that run on their own domain, such as info@mydomain.com, and access to DNS settings. The shortcut allows you to schedule emails to be sent within 72 hours. Even sending emails in the past is possible! There are dozens of setting options, all of which should be tested at best. Furthermore, the shortcut is full of functions that ensure that the user can make practically no mistakes. For each case there is an error message (or should there be one). Who finds the gaps? Every email address is checked for validity, duplicates are detected and much more. At the moment the shortcut has about 4,500 actions, but will probably be extended with some more features. If you are interested, please contact me by DM and tell me which email service you will use to test the shortcut. I will probably have the shortcut ready by Wednesday so that the test phase can begin. iOS 12 only!!! (edited)

Additional information for those who are interested: The shortcut also offers tracking functions such as Click Tracking, Open Tracking and Subscription Tracking (the latter allows recipients to unsubscribe from receiving messages using an unsubscribe button). And you can manage all unsubscribes. Statistics can be viewed and all account settings (such as username, password, email address, etc.) can be updated directly in the shortcut. Contact lists can be created to simplify the sending of bulk emails (up to 1,000 recipients per email). And much more... (edited)
17:42
That sounds great! Thanks @supermamon you've been added! I am especially curious because you have an email with your own domain. That makes it even more interesting. With a few changes to the DNS, there are some advantages. I haven't had time to test it myself yet.

I have this issue after I swipe down or click done from a quick look of a video. I think it’s because the actions used are get clipboard, Set Name, quick look (edited)

is base url correct?
Avatar
MattR 0818YYYY-204731
So I must be missing something simple. Yeah it’s 130 because since it only does XML I have to do regex and other things to parse our the data I need as not all the records have the same data and any records that have multiple entries for something like a phone number have a different json structure than ones that don’t so it’s some if statements and regex and stuff.
20:47
Should be correct. It’s the same base for a get and I am pulling out of the same dictionary entry
20:48
Gotta run but I will swing back by tomorrow. Thanks for the help guys if you think of anything feel free to message me.
20:49
I am hoping the serializer in the next update to scritpable might make this doable there and just run it from shorcuts
20:49
Oh random question but is is better to have a long shorcut that does it all or various smaller ones you call for repetitive stuff
Avatar
supermamon 0818YYYY-210320
in my case, a single shortcut. but calls itself for the repetitive stuff
Avatar
MattR 0818YYYY-212134
Interesting. Calls it’s self in a specific way? As an example because of how it returns XML I have to force it into JSON so that’s a separate script. Then I do some if statement chains to cover no results returned, more than x and just one result to pull different data.
21:22
Right now I have them all as one big one (minus the xml to json). But I have considered making separate shortcuts for the If chains as well as later on if I want to make a search specific value or pulling other things like attribute tags or groups that use 90% the same structure.
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 0818YYYY-212256
lots of people use a "function" method where the shortcut calls itself with a dictionary containing a function name

then the shortcut itself is a chain of If Equals "function 1" ...function 1 here End If Equals "function 2" ...

Random thought. On the XML stuff would it be a encoding issue? I don’t know enough about code but others have gotten ur to work in various environments like .net. Could it just need extra encoding maybe? Using a base64 or something I am missing?
21:31
You could use his database thing to at least import data tables and such
21:32
Whoever create is he definitely know his code
Avatar
supermamon 0818YYYY-213251
for the XML thing, it shouldn't be an issue about the encoding. having the Content-Type: text/xml should suffice actually
21:33
it's how the endpoint is defined
21:33
would you know if the note endpoint exists at all.
21:33
is it something that can be enabled/disabled on the server
21:34
does that particular endpoint accept querystring for the authentication or should it pass those as form variables
21:35
for what's it's worth, the documentation itself is not very clear on these things.
21:35
do you have a part of the documentation about authentication?
Avatar
MattR 0818YYYY-213931
Yeah it does exist. If I do note/list? It pulls any notes attached to someone’s profile and gives me a xml file.
21:40
The documentation is not clear for sure. Umm if you have the link scroll up. Wait hang on that’s a different file one second
Avatar
supermamon 0818YYYY-214100
note/list and note/add are different endpoints. one can exists without the other.
Avatar
MattR 0818YYYY-214150
True. Sorry that’s a good point. I am assuming add exist since I can add a note in the website and I can pull the list. But it is an assumption.
21:42
It won’t let me send the text with the authenticate instructions lol

My login works FYI so that /login endpoint does indeed work
21:44
The one thing that does not jive is the error message I get
21:46
So in short if I send a file to note/add it says error session and sig needed. But if I add them as a query parameters (which is the only way it seems to see them) it changed the end point. Or at least that’s my understanding.
21:46
It would change note/add to note/add?session&sig but that’s not the same as the endpoint in the documentation
21:47
But if I send just the file I can’t send the values as a form which is what I had to do for a login.
Avatar
supermamon 0818YYYY-215141
looks like based on everything at hand, the request is valid. have you tried other POST endpoints like person/add or person/{id}/update?
Avatar
MattR 0818YYYY-215305
A little but not extensively. I was wanting to avoid those as this is a line database ave messing up a note on a test profile is way less of a big deal than messing up a line record LOL
Avatar
supermamon 0818YYYY-215513
does updating one fields on a record requires all the rest of the fields also. Like if I only want to update Age, would it accept
<Person> <Age>21</Age> </Person>
21:56
anyway, that's a tangent on the issue.
21:56
if you were able to use POST on the other endpoints, then it should be no different on note/add
Avatar
MattR 0818YYYY-215655
That’s a unknown. In theory I think if would be okay to use just age but the example request uses most of the profile.
Avatar
supermamon 0818YYYY-215702
then it boils down to my theory that note/add may have been disabled not not exits
Avatar
MattR 0818YYYY-215949
I will see about the others. One guy on Reddit who I have been talking with suggested that in this case it might actually be correct to use the firm side of things. According to his theory after some digging through sun’s GitHub projects for thus api that the xmlserialization this projects di actually just use the xml test in the file as a string and encode it in a form url kind if way
22:00
He referenced this file

But it could be the not function is disabled.
Avatar
supermamon 0818YYYY-220207
oh, another theory, the doc says the endpoint is /person/{id}/note but the example says /person/{id}/note/add could you try changing your request url to /person/{id}/note?api_session&api_sig (edited)
22:02
just a thought. i'm thinking it's just a typo
Avatar
supermamon 0818YYYY-220952
and the code on that github repo does not use /add
Action = String.Format("person/{0}/note", personId);

Hey guys random question but is there a way to handle this hypothetical situation? If my shortcut pull data from a API and some times it has value for one key and other times it does not. What’s the best way to handle it so it does not throw a error and stop the shortcut if there is no key?
20:04
As an example let’s say pull one has a email and pull two does not. If I want to have an output at the end that displays the data that’s there how do I get it to skip the email field in the instances that it does not have an email?
20:04
I tried an If statement that counted items but if there is no key there is no items to count...

Top box is the attempt to pull the email from the dictionary. Second is a regex match because it pulls extra keys I don’t need.

trying to access the value of a key that way errors out when the key does not exist. replace the top box with Get Dictionary Value
Avatar
MattR 0822YYYY-201237
Sending a link to the xml file that I turn into a dictionary if that helps too. I can copy and past the dictionary text if needed
20:13
That too value is using a get dictionary but I should change it to the get dictionary value block?

the Emails part looks to be an array that can be more than one email. is this assumption correct?
Avatar
MattR 0822YYYY-201837
Yeah. I saw a post from nilya on Reddit about how to turn an array inside a dictionary into a separate dictionary and one on how to make it searchable that I was thinking about looking at using.
20:19
The database stores numbers, emails and addresses as single level entries if there is only one in the system
Avatar
supermamon 0822YYYY-201932
ok if it's an array and you want to get the first email in there then the key that you should use is Person.Emails.1.Email
Avatar
MattR 0822YYYY-202028
If any of those have more than one entry it is an array. Yeah I have that ironed out but I was running into an issue of it erroring out if there was no array or key of said value that i was not sure how to get around
Avatar
supermamon 0822YYYY-202101
or go multiple steps so you can check of Emails has a value first
Get Dictionary Value key="Person.Emails" Get Item From List "First Item" Get Dictionary Value key="Email"
Avatar
MattR 0822YYYY-203523
So that would check for a value and then say none if there was none but not crash the shortcut?
20:36
Or would it be a get value then count items and if none move on?
Avatar
supermamon 0822YYYY-204920
you need to count Person.Emails first. if there's more than zero then go get the value
Avatar
MattR 0822YYYY-205042
Got it. So basically keep what I have just change the top block
20:51
I might be able to ditch regex that way too
Avatar
MattR 0822YYYY-221923
Shortcuts is so weird.
22:21
So if I run it and have the get dictionary doubt the emails.email up front it will pull the correct items later but it still errors out. If I have it count just emails the try to use a second get variable and count that t skips the outcome step and acts like the the outcome never meets the requirement and just right to the other lol

Random question but is it possible to pass a dictionary out of a choose from list? I know you can make list by referencing the dictionary is it possible to do it so when you pick from said generated listed your picking a dictionary so you can pull the dictionary with the selection then reference out of the list result?

Usually all I can get it to do is spit out text. Which I can use to Tehran what I need but would be much simpler the other way.

Thus, why I extract the .zip file from the Base64 encoded text stored in the dictionary action.

It works best that way because it doesn’t require an active internet connection.

Of course it depends on the number of graphics, but with a size of 123px the amount of data should be manageable. There is no other way, because the vCard requires a Base64 encoded image. You're welcome!

Avatar
ROP 🌈 0903YYYY-144115
@AShortcuts Unfortunately this is not possible in this form. The background is transparent, but as soon as you use the PDF action, it becomes a white background. But without the PDF action it won't work either. All shortcuts that go this way to display information on or above or below an image have a white background in the result. With the use of JavaScript and HTML Canvas this is possible, but also much more complex. The basic technique can be found here https://routinehub.co/shortcut/1629, although the result has nothing to do with what you have in mind. But in this shortcut HTML Canvas is used. (By the way: You create something transparent with CSS not with HTML). If anyone knows better, they're welcome to correct me. 😉 (edited)
Avatar
ROP 🌈 0903YYYY-150134
The font-size requires one unit (px, em...). The font-weight is determined in "normal, bold...", but never with percentages. The paragraph element is enclosed by an h1 headline, which is not completely correct and above all not necessary. The date belongs in the body not in the head area. For example: <head> <style> body { font-family: -apple-system } h1 { font-size: 10px; font-weight: bold; color: red } </style> </head> <body> <h1>Date</h1> </body> (In this case, the font weight does not have to be specified, since a headline (h1—h6) is bold by default.) The head part of a website/HTML file contains all things that are not visible to the user/visitor. This also includes the CSS (style). The body contains everything that can be seen at the end when the document is called up. Related to RoutineHub: All contents of the page you can see are in the body part. The choice of the typography, the colors of the headlines, texts and links and so on are displayed in the head area. (edited)

Anyways, since v8.0 of ALL THE GIFs!, I’ve totally rewritten the “Color Effects, Presets, & Filters” menu option.
11:36
This has broken the way GIF Gallery was implemented into it.
11:37
Now from what I’ve noticed about GIF Gallery’s implementation for “Change Orientation of GIF” is that it isn’t broken and left unaffected by these changes because I didn’t touch any of this. (edited)
11:38
So I looked into how to implement GIF Gallery for this, and tried to do the same for “Color Effects, Presets, & Filters”, but whatever I try, it doesn’t work. It just returns to the main menu of the shortcut for GIF Gallery when I select an option in the “Color Effects, Presets, & Filters” menu.

You can just skip the unneeded otherwise if you want or try to put a nothing block to isolate it

For get variable thing I have just started calling without using get. So once it is a variable just using it as the source instead getting the variable then passing it on to whatever I am sending the variable too.

@G30 I don’t think you need that Get Variable GIF but hard to say. If you ever do need to get a variable in 13 though you can use Add To Variable as a workaround leave the input blank, use the variable name and it will pass the variable contents along as an output.
Avatar
G30 0918YYYY-172624
Ahh yeah. I forgot to mention this. In v1.0.3 of ATG for iOS 13, I have removed the Get GIF variable shown in the screenshot above. But the Get Repeat Item variable seems to be needed so that extracting frames from a GIF actually works. (edited)

Ugh I CBA (Can’t be Arsed) to mess with this anymore. It works fine as Get Variable. I’ve spent an hour already trying to find a workaround for using the Get Variable to no good outcome. Either Extracting Frames from a GIF works or Extracting Frames from a Video works. With the Get Variable Repeat Item, it works for both.
19:15
So really, I’ve just wasted an hour trying to do something that never would have worked anyways. I’ll just move onto something else now.

supermamon 0918YYYY-194013
are you looking to remove Get Variable for the sake of reducing actions? You can't if that's what you want

but if you are removing it because Get Variable is deprecated, then there's a way
19:41
it will result to 1 additional action though

@supermamon Correct. @ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) has found a very nice solution for removing this Get Repeat Item variable. Also, Extract & Save Frames of Video/GIF is now 2 actions smaller. I’ll push out an update for ATG (iOS 13) soon.

OK, so obviously outright taking of someone’s shortcut and renaming it as your own is wrong, but this is just an example of where someone has used an ability of html/css to blur an image. Theres a difference between learning from something and stealing something, and this wouldn’t be, its just a bit of css/html they have utilised and thousands of other people have too, although not as many in the context of Shortcuts.

Well, I’ve changed the version number (13) to (13.1) in the shortcut name on RoutineHub.

Hopefully people won’t complain that it isn’t working or it’s broken being on iOS 13.0

13.0 is broken It's just ridiculous that the GM was 13.0 and not 13.1

I’m looking for a way I can reduce the amount of actions used in this part of one of my shortcuts on iOS 13.1 Dev beta 4.
08:10
Hopefully this makes sense: I’m taking an empty shortcut’s .plist file and replacing the WFWorkflowIconGlyphNumber with the value of my choice to get the images from the value to add to a vCard menu. I am then renaming the empty shortcut’s .plist file to (Anything really can be here).shortcut and getting the images from that. Then I Base64 Encode the image to add to a vCard menu.

Hey @D3W10, I heard that the same method for vCard Menus still work on iOS 13, but Get Variable is No longer needed. Does it still work with Get Variable though? Asking because I want ULPM to support iOS 12&13.
09:42
I know that Get Variable is no longer on the list of new actions that you can put in iOS 13, but it still can be used.
Avatar
G30 0924YYYY-105347
It’s not necessary to use the get variable action and it’ll most likely be automatically removed from your shortcut anyways when you make the switch to iOS 13.
10:54
But it should fix itself and the vCard menu should work just fine.

Credits to @supermamon for that script. Not 100% where he found it. What it does is detects if the current device’s appearance is in dark mode.

But the text dark can also be changed to light to detect if the device is in light mode as well.

It’s in the shortcut title basically. 😆
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-223338
you want to send a value for the method right?
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-223426
Yes I believe so. The values would be html, css, cssold, etc. right?
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-223526
yeah
22:35
and the key would be method

G30 0930YYYY-223539
You should understand by now I guess. :3

Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-223720
i don’t think this is going to do what you want
22:38
you should be posting to https://s1.ezgif.com/image-to-datauri according to the page markup.
Image to data URI converter
Convert image to Data URI string online. Data URI is a method for embedding small images directly in your HTML or CSS code using base64 encoding without the need for additional image files.

This will automatically find the best server assigned to your IP address

22:39
So the server it tells doesn’t really matter
22:39
Waiittttt
22:40
Wait I will send you an updated version. Give me a minute
22:41
Forgot to fix the server url
22:42
Oof wait. :/
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-224257
ok i see your problem. you are posting to the wrong url at the end. this is gonna be more complicated.
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-224418
Now this version applies the fix so that the correct server assigned to your ip address is the correct server. (edited)
22:46
So I’m posting the the wrong url? 😦
22:46
I’m not good with looking at page sources and html and seeing how things got to flow
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-224707
i have it working
22:47
in the future what you want to look at for forms is this:
22:48
<form action=“/url/here” > the action attribute is where the form will POSTP (edited)
22:48
you were pretty close though
22:49
Image attachment
22:49
that’s your fix right there. the url needs to be updated and your post body needs the correct key on method
22:49
then you can scrape the page output like you do in other steps to pull the contents of the output field
22:50
the textarea inside the div with id output is your target for that.
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-225113
How would I get that? 😅
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-225146
same way you get the token and the other stuff, just scrape the page contents for the html you’re looking for.
22:52
could probably do it in javascript too if that’s more your thing but regex might work just fine
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-225247
So I’d be scraping the page contents from the second url?
22:53
To get the text output
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-225340
yep
22:53
where you have the quick look now
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-225408
Idk Regex tbh
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-225416
you’ll probably want to look between <textarea style="width:100%;height:800px"> and </textarea>
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-225425
I used Regex I use for ATG as an example to start this shortcut off
22:54
Because I use the same Regex for Color Effects, Presets, & Filters 😅
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-225547
it’s basically the same

G30 0930YYYY-225622
I’m wanting to get the output data uri code for the image uploaded. What Regex would I be using because I really have no clue. 😓
Image attachment
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-225840
i don’t do regex so this is not really something i can answer but it’s probably exactly the same as the regex you’ve already used. just change the html part of the regex.
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-225917
I don’t use Regex past the first url for color effects, presets, & filters. 😦 (edited)
23:02
I do see the part you say to be looking at though
23:02
Just not sure how to extract it using Regex
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-230450
you use regex at the beginning of this shortcut. you use it to get the token and stuff.

Image attachment
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-233253
right but you want to look between the end of the <textarea> tag and the </textarea> tag so just adjust the html that’s in that action and it should work.
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-233336
I really don’t understand 😦
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-233351
do you not understand how the action you just posted works?
23:34
you clearly managed to extract the css style from that textarea
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-233519
I don’t understand how to get the output between those two tags though.
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-233543
you got the text between two quotation marks there right? (edited)
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-233557
Yeah I guess
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-233616
you found the div on the page and extracted the text in a certain position relative to the text you searched for
23:36
now change the html so that instead of looking between the quotation marks after the style attribute you’re looking between the opening and closing textarea tags (edited)
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-233919
<textarea style= "([^"]*)">"([^"]*)" </textarea>
23:39
This is most likely 100% wrong. But I’m trying to wrap my head around this.
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-233939
you need to put the style attribute back in
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-234026
Wouldn’t the Regex find the style attribute or no?
23:40
(I really don’t know at all)
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-234055
you don’t want for to find the style attribute.
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-234106
Ok
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-234111
you want the regex to only match the contents of the textarea. (edited)
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-234220
<textarea style="width:100%;height:800px">”([^*”]*)”</textarea>
23:42
Please at least tell my I’m close. 😓
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-234233
that looks mostly right
23:42
give that a try and see if it works
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-234240
Mostly? What’s wrong?
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-234246
you might have to remove the quotation marks but I’m not sure
23:43
it’ll depend on how the page is rendered, but I don’t think there will be quotation marks around the text you’re extracting
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-234329
Nothing is being passed to the quick look
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-234340
with or without the quotation marks?
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-234345
With them
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-234353
try without
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-234408
Without quotations marks in the whole Regex?
Avatar
Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) 0930YYYY-234428
just around the part you’re trying to extract
23:44
there are going to be quotation marks around the style attribute so leave those in
Avatar
G30 0930YYYY-234450
<textarea style="width:100%;height:800px">([^*”]*)</textarea>

I'm confused about why the colour doesnt match, its from the iOS Human Interface Guidelines, so should match/be close to the menu text (there are actually 2 versions of each colour slightly lighter/darker but not that different) Checking the colours in pixelmator shows neither as being the RGB values they should be
Avatar
G30 1005YYYY-102839
Maybe they have changed for iOS 13? Thought you would have checked to see about that already though. I’m not sure. That’s pretty weird for sure

Does anyone have the slightest idea why MediaKit Badges only works with the first options, the Classic Badges with the Shortcuts Icon and the Download Badges with a white background and black button? With all other options the shortcut jumps to the bottom and presents the CSS code for the selected option. I have already tried several solutions, but I can't come up with a solution. I have adjusted the IFs, I have added Quick Looks and Alerts to test where the problem lies, ran the shortcut in edit mode and much more. After spending a few hours with it now, I don't give up, but hope that someone might be a little smarter and see what to do much faster so the "error" doesn't happen. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Any help is welcome. https://routinehub.co/shortcut/1906 (edited)

MattR 1008YYYY-162755
Would try and offer a guess ROP but I have never used it so I would be fairly lost trying to reverse engineer it. If I had to guess I would say that the numbering system that helps the shortcut pull the correct information based on what’s passed is failing.
16:28
So either it’s not passing what it should do when it goes to count the count is off or empty
16:29
Or what it’s looking for to help validate what’s sent is missing something so it’s acting like it got boring sent and skipping to the end.
Avatar
ROP 🌈 1008YYYY-163726
Yeah, the numbers thing was my idea, too. But with the first tried way I did not come to a solution. Now I have found the problem. It was still due to the IFs and their conversion when importing an iOS12 shortcut with iOS13. I had to replace all "IF Results" by the variable "html", which is responsible for the assignment of the numbers. Now everything works as it should. Thank you very much for your sympathy and the will to help me. By the way: Did you manage the shadows for the buttons?
Avatar
MattR 1008YYYY-163909
Yes and no
16:40
I have not had a lot of time today to fiddle with it. But I got some of them working. Basically I am using bootstrap 4 and building a webpage that displays my data how I want.
16:40
Similar to OutputKit just with out the amazing VCard solution.
16:42
In this case one section has buttons that house a label and a link to a phone number or email. The buttons that hold the link I have gotten to take a shadow but the ones that have the label are being frustratingly stubborn about not NOT taking a shadow.
16:44
I tried <button type=“button” class=“blah blah”>Text</button> and I tried <a class=“blah blah” href....> and neither want to show the shadow on the button with the label. So I might try another approach and look at using Row or Flex or Grid.
16:44
Or I might try switching to W3.css or Material Design bootstrap

ROP 🌈 1008YYYY-171704
@MattR Ok, so even at the risk that I totally misunderstand it, I simply tried to create a shadow each for a button, a link and a button with a label. As I said, maybe I misunderstand you, but since you're talking about labels, I assumed you meant those labels. I didn't set a label for the link, because in my opinion it's not really valid HTML. <!DOCTYPE HTML> <html lang="en"> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> <title>Shadows</title> <style> button, a { font-family: sans-serif; padding: 12px 40px; border-radius: 7px; background: blue; color: white; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; text-transform: uppercase; box-shadow: 0px 3px 5px #333; } button { -webkit-appearance: none; border: none; } a { text-decoration: none; } </style> </head> <body> <button type="button" class="blah blah">Button Text</button> <a class="blah blah" href="#">Link Text</a> <label for="blah">Label</label> <button type="button" id="blah" class="blah blah" value="blah blah blah">Button Text</button> </body> </html> (edited)

The shortcuts app seems to crash if you are choosing from a list of any type of photo media no matter what in iOS 13.2

And even if I was to turn on Show Document Picker and select a photo or GIF, etc. from a folder, the shortcuts app crashes as well.

Splash is great, or was. I don’t know if the creator updated it for iOS 13 but you could write the shortcut there then it would build it for you in shortcut blocks. It used the file import option though so the guy who makes it would have had to find a creative way to fix it.
21:42
By the way thank you all for your help off and on with shortcuts. I still have a few in the pipe but one of the big ones I finally finished. I can’t release it here as it deals with company data and I don’t want the keys getting out. But I am going to try and upload a video to at least shel you all.

The end output is responsive to screen size l. So if you flip your phone or tablet you get more room. When you share via email it won’t collapse but the select functions are still there.
21:53
I am considering releasing some variations of the output only on routine hub so people could use them and drop in their own data though.
21:54
ScPL? Not good with shorthand sorry. I wanted to try trailblazer and such but once I upgraded to 13 none of them worked since file@import got borked.

The various square boxes also resize based on how many there are on the like and such but I think I hard coded it to three a line.

But I have a little library of outputs that have drop down buttons, accordion style hiding, split outputs (like side by side boxes and a bigger third box on the bottom) and other ones I can’t remember right now
22:11
Oh I fiddled with stickies footers, side and horizontal menus as well and I think some navigation stuff.
22:11
I got button grids working as well but in W3.css not bootstrap.

I just don’t want to go making dictionaries and libraries with it all on my phone. To much copy and paste switching back and forth and delicate editing for it to be any fun for very long.

JoeJoe13 1011YYYY-132602
Thanks @MattR - but when i'm starting it, i enter a "If Statement" under my location, it only gives me the option of Any value or no value. How am I supposed to equal a value?

or do I copy the location to the clipboard or variable first?

I guess i'm not even sure where to start it.

Something like that. Basically two things to remember with the new IF statements
13:37
1) The values after if change based on input
13:38
2) The values ALSO change based on how you tell it to handle the data
13:39
So for a location if you use a location as an IF input you will only see has value/has no value. But if you tell the off statement to get same the name of said location your giving it you will see new values of is, is not, ect... show up
13:40
So if you want to do a IF statement using a location do get location and type out the name or use current location then pass it to the IF. Then go to the value and click on it and tell it to get the name and you will get the ability to do a is or is not

MattR 1011YYYY-134601
Variables are easier now. Just change your thinking to be each block is effectively it’s own variable. You only need to use add or set if you want to add multiple blocks to one variable
13:46
In fact I works suggest using a rename approach. If you are going to use something ones many times (a dictionary for example or a date) set it as magic then rename it. For the rest of the shortcut it will show up as a variable with the name you give it.
Avatar
JoeJoe13 1011YYYY-134732
yeah, i never got dictionaries.... lol slightly above my level
Avatar
MattR 1011YYYY-134738
You have a few options. You can add a step that repeats 6 or 7 times one for each date.
13:48
Or you can use repeat with each depending on how your getting the data.
13:49
Or you can say get location and if location matches x do this otherwise search surrounding area for x and get an ETA or name or whatever then use that
13:50
You can use count to add the number or days or minutes to another value and spit out an adjusted time. So “hey I will be there at x time” and x time is the current time plus add the number of minutes that count finds in the eta for a end result of x time in the future.

Fun fact I’ve just found out on my own: Function dictionaries as JSON can be Base64 encoded text and then decoded. Then called by a run shortcut action. 😄

So for example, if I wanted to call Photos to GIF, I could use a Run Shortcut action with the magic variable FuncDic as a dictionary with the value Photos to GIF.

This works because I’ve encoded the Functions dictionary as JSON. Then I’m decoding it and calling the plain text. Hope that makes sense for some of you guys to understand (edited)

@MattR A downside to Base64 encoding the Function Dictionary as JSON is when you have to edit the dictionary/json itself to add more functions or something
14:20
That would take a bit longer than if you weren’t to base64 encode it.

@G30 can you just do what your doing without the encoding? Technically you should be able to use a function to pull the dictionary without it. Or at least the text block then make the dictionary from that. It would be one less thing if you needed to make a edit in the shortcut or in the called shortcut
Avatar
G30 1012YYYY-160625
Yeah lol. It can be done without the encoding. Check out how it’s done in ATG
Avatar
MattR 1012YYYY-165529
Yeah will do. Encoring is a nice trick though for a lot of things so it’s good to know it can’t be used that way.

MattR 1012YYYY-182150
Random question but when you are putting values in a library at the top of a shortcut. How do you add a new line for a shortcut value if you need it?
18:22
I can get it to do it via copy and paste but I don’t know how to do it my self.

Just thought of something. Instead of decoding something 3 times, can’t you just use a Repeat 3 times action? XD
Avatar
ROP 🌈 1012YYYY-193125
Relatively simple: First I made the Light Mode Mockups, then the Dark Mode Mockups. Then I put everything together with MediaKit Collages. After I put both versions in layers on top of each other in a graphics program. From the upper layer I deleted the part on the lower right with a selection tool. 😉 (edited)

It would work if you set it to a variable and then decoded the variable instead of a magic variable
Avatar
G30 1013YYYY-031514
Meh. Not worth the change then. Using a set variable would use one more action than I want to. Either way, decoding the IFTTT trigger 3 times, or repeating one decode 3 times still somehow uses the same amount of actions. Lol
Avatar
G30 1013YYYY-032538
Just thought about this. Would this even be necessary to have? I added an iOS 12 version check in ATG (iOS) 13 back a few versions ago. But I’m not sure it’s even needed if people can’t even download it on iOS 12.
Image attachment
03:25
I need someone on iOS 12 to test if it’ll actually let them download it.
Avatar
MattR 1013YYYY-083256
I can’t test it for you but honestly even if it does let them download it I still think it’s not needed. Shortcuts are being used by more and more people but most still read and understand the information before downloading (unless it’s a link from a friend).
08:34
I am in the middle of writing a few and one will be fault complex, unfortunately, and I don’t plan on putting a version check. Just a message in the shortcut information on routine hub that says it was written in iOS 13. At most I might put a import question that just covers the issue.

MattR 1013YYYY-083523
@G30 you can try your repeat thing using repeat each and setting the variable as repeat item
Avatar
G30 1013YYYY-083539
Not worth it. It’ll cost me an extra action. Lol
Avatar
MattR 1013YYYY-083556
Then it will process each item in the repeat you send it separately. Okay well up to you 🙂
08:36
It’s what I do for anything I send grouped these days
08:37
Working on a notes shortcut right now and it’s already all over the place and I used it on my last API Database one. Between it and set name as instead of a text field it saved me about 20% of my total actions.
Avatar
G30 1013YYYY-083808
ATG used to be a total shit show with the highest amount of actions used being very close to 2,000. I think like 1,986.
08:38
Now it’s only 1,187 actions currently for the latest iOS 13 version.
08:38
I actually feel bad for those who use ATG on iOS 12. Because I left it off in a bad state.

It should work if anyone wants to try it but you will have to change the fine note options to the right folder and name.
12:20
Thanks @habeeb right now I plan on finishing it up but it is a irritating process. Right now it’s all down via regex and/or find and replace but that means I can’t share similar letter pairs until I get a better regex formula lol
12:20
The html stuff will eventually end up in a dictionary but I am having issues getting new lines into the dictionary entries which I need for some of this.
12:23
And the look is no where near finished and I very well might switched to a different bootstrap. But the point behind it is to make a set of shorthand words or whatever that a user can surround text for the various elements and then spits it out as a pdf eventually. But I also want to make it so it archived the actual note in apple notes so they don’t have to undo it all.
12:23
I might end up doing a get text, save as file, get file etc...

@D3W10 So I found your Thunder Crash shortcut can mess with people’s appearance in an odd way.
11:49
Basically, if you stop the shortcut when Smart Invert gets turned on, setting the appearance will stay dark no matter what in either dark or light mode.
11:50
The fix to this would be to set the smart invert to the off position after the repeat. (edited)
11:50
This is how you have it.

D3W10 1015YYYY-115133
Right
Avatar
G30 1015YYYY-115217
See what I mean?
11:52
So you should add a set smart invert to off as well as leave the set appearance to dark mode AFTER the end repeat
11:52
Hope it helps. Just wanted to leave some feedback
11:54
And if smart invert is already on, your shortcuts wont work how they should.
11:55
Nice. You’ve fixed it already. 😄
12:01
@supermamon Do you know of any scripts that could return true or false for classic or smart invert appearance in shortcuts?

I cba to go back and download all the shortcuts I know I had. And then redo rewriting all the color names for the Shortcuts Icon Editor update I was just about to push out.

@ROP 🌈 I’m so used to working and looking at the code of ALL THE GIFs!, that I could probably rewrite HiRes GIFs for you and reduce a crap ton of actions used at the same time. 🤣
17:42
Not saying I would though. I don’t really have the patience to do so.
17:43
Maybe not a crap ton, but a function dictionary would nearly eliminate the need to pass dictionaries to run shortcut actions. As you can just use a function dictionary as run shortcut’s input. (edited)

Well, the only reason HiRes GIFs hasn't been updated for iOS13 yet is that I just don't have the time right now. Much more important to me is the customization of all MediaKit shortcuts. Of course this takes a lot of time. Besides, I still have to work. As I said, an update of HiRes GIFs is definitely planned, but I can't say when yet. Feel free to do whatever you want with it if it helps to make the shortcut compatible with iOS13. I am happy about any work that is done for me and happy about any support. In general, however, I have to say that I always find it hard to accept help. I am rather the type of person who likes to give, not take. I always have a guilty conscience when I think of someone else sacrificing their valuable time for me. Thanks!!! (edited)

@ROP 🌈 I can totally understand where you’re coming from as I feel the same way sometimes.
16:20
ALL THE GIFs! was built by others help until it got to the point where I was learning the shortcut on my own. It actually amazes me on how far it’s come..
16:20
I’d probably be terrible at trying to build something just as creative. 😅
16:21
Anyways… I’ve just figured out 17 Run Shortcut actions are totally unnecessary in ALL THE GIFs! I will push out an update shortly as soon as I’m done with testing. (edited)

ROP 🌈 1018YYYY-172001
Thank you sooo much for the kind words and sympathy @G30. ☺️ And I think it's great how you get excited about finding solutions for ATG and others of your shortcuts yourself. That's what it's all about. And of course it is absolutely no shame to accept help.

What’s the point of Run Shortcut actions in function based shortcuts that are only used to re-run the shortcut / return to the main menu?
17:56
Is there any point if no input is being passed?
18:02
The only time I could think of Run Shortcut actions being necessary with no real input is when you are calling the shortcut result for an Exit Shortcut action to stop the shortcut from executing any further than it should. (edited)
18:02
For example:

I don’t know 🤷🏼‍♂️ honestly I am using a run shortcut to cause a repeat loop but still I expect there is a better way
Avatar
MattR 1018YYYY-181906
@ROP 🌈 this probably sounds like a very silly question as I am sure it’s a simple answer but in HighRes what is the purpose of the dictionary entries that feed a run shortcut with the variable run shortcut?
18:20
I don’t see the dictionaries or functions being used elsewhere... and the run shortcut variable is fed by a dictionary that is just the shortcut info (which causes me a infinite loop)

HiRes GIFs was made for iOS 12 @MattR.

Avatar
ROP 🌈 1018YYYY-184019
@MattR The shortcut was created with iOS12 and works this way only with iOS12. The dictionary entries (together with the Run Shortcut) were used to jump between different parts of the shortcut (basically, the technique was also used to enable the "Back" button). The data was always passed on via a Copy to Clipboard action. Importing the shortcut with iOS13 destroys all these connections.
Avatar
G30 1018YYYY-185155
So ehh… there’s something very funky happening in ATG now. 😅😓
18:54
I hope it isn’t because of the run shortcut actions I’ve removed…
18:54
This even happens in the latest version.
18:56
This issue seems to only happen for trim gif though.
18:59
Really weird. I can’t see why this would be happening..
19:00
That figures… it’s ONLY happening with Share a GIF from Gallery. I think. So limiting down to what could possibly be causing this bug,
19:01
But everything seems fine. This bug is super odd..
19:05
Oooof
19:05
And then trimming it for the second time just… Turns it into a still image? 🙁

@ROP 🌈 makes sense. I think I know how to fix it I just needed to know how it worked on 12
19:09
Lastly here is something fun... https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/62a480498b4940e19b53c6371bbc6794
19:13
The shortcut I linked is a webpage that’s generated inside shortcuts with a box and a button that copies the text in the box to the clipboard then you can use it as input for your shortcut.
19:13
And the page is completely customizable
Avatar
G30 1018YYYY-191425

19:14
This is the text content that will be copied to the clipboard.

MattR 1018YYYY-191609
You can change the placeholder text if you to be anything or nothing or make it more frayed out. Change the box size, location ect...

ROP 🌈 1018YYYY-192745
@MattR Cool! Then I'll be very curious to see what you make of it. I started a shortcut more than a year ago, which I never finished. It was created under iOS 12, works only partly with iOS 13, but also uses Clipboard.js to copy the contents. It's a shortcut to color. Called ColorLab Link removed (edited)
Avatar
supermamon 1018YYYY-193351
looks like a color picker can be made <input type=color> then copy the color code via Clipboard.js

ROP 🌈 1018YYYY-193750
Definitely possible! I believe I've even seen it in a shortcut before. Look at the shortcut I linked and you'll see what else is conceivable with colors. (edited)

It can. In my limited experience that is better setup hard coded in a text box or dictionary and it’s code varies a little based on your bootstrap.
19:40
Bootstrap 4 and Material Bootstrap are close. W3 CSS is similar too
19:41
You can chain pages too if you want

That could be useful for Tint in Color Effects, Presets, & Filters of ATG if you can somehow get the hex codes from the color chosen.

MattR 1018YYYY-194802

Avatar
ROP 🌈 1018YYYY-194948
In principle, the color picker can be used for all projects where the selection of a color is relevant. The idea of my shortcut above was to create color palettes in iCloud Drive, among others as PDF in Pantone style. For my work I often need color palettes. (edited)

In case I was meant @MattR: The colors are all copied when you click on the values. So there is no button to copy single values, you just tap on it.

Yeah no that makes sense @ROP 🌈. I was just wandering about how he included clipboard js.

Here is how I am doing right now, just a snippet I found.
21:47
document.getElementById("btnCopy").addEventListener("click", function(){ var copyText = document.getElementById("myText"); copyText.select(); document.execCommand("Copy"); alert("Copied to clipboard!"); });
21:48
@supermamon so here is a question. How would you do that to gather text from multiple boxes? That’s something I can’t figure out how to get to work in WebKit
Avatar
supermamon 1018YYYY-220150
i'd gather the all text contents into a JSON variable. Set the value of another dummy text box to the final json then copy that

Anyone here any food with css files? I am trying to modify a few variables in a already existing file but when I try and self host it via jsdeliver or wherever it does not want to load it as a valid file. But if I use the CDN link provided by the original CSS it loads that just fine.

Good old shortcuts... you never cease to make me scratch my head. Working on a W3 variant of OutputKit and of course it’s being funny. One example works great... another refuses to work right even though the code inside the shortcut is exactly the same as what I type in manually (and is using elsewhere just fine).

Have you tried looking at pro tool box and see if you could use it at all to offload where your running into bugs at? It wouldn’t be a release candidate but you could possibly narrow down even more exactly what in the process is hanging up if you off load parts of it it via an app.
11:22
Or possibly try and use HTML 5/CSS to do the masking or whatever and see if that gives you a work around for now?

I’d rather not use a 3rd party app. And I don’t know anything about HTML 5/CSS.

Don’t blame you. It’s just sad that it seems like that’s where we’re headed until Apple catches up with how we are using shortcuts and they won’t make any major updates now for the next test at least.
12:21
So if it’s a question of a good experience and a third party app or bugs and work arounds it won’t be fun for anyone

I just don’t seen them fixing half the bugs that exist right now and if they do I fully expect it to uncover more that won’t be fixed

But I’m wondering if there’s a way to retrieve the exact speed of images per second from a GIF selected from the photo gallery, and to save it to the iCloud Drive as a .json file.

This way, it could be saved, and retrieved to reset the speed of a GIF.

@Kindred98 why not check out the shortcut that makes the screen shots? I forget what it’s called... media kit maybe? Anyway I bet it has the screen dimensions in there some where or just check apples site and the tech pages of the models you want to support and then make a dictionary with all the screen measurements so you can reference it later.

I’ve found how to edit Shortcuts/Workflow files to make Shortcuts think I’m using 2.0.0 instead of 2.2.2, and Client 700 instead of 788, but I still can’t find where the value containing WFWorkflowMinimumClientVersion is. Can someone help?
15:25
Also, I’m not talking about individual shortcut plist files, but rather the Shortcuts app itself.

Nevermind, figured it out myself. May someone confirm though that 411 is a MinimumClientVersion that’s compatible with 2.0.0? (edited)

Hey, so I am creating a shortcut and need screenshots (as many as possible) of the main page in shortcuts, I need some with and without the bold header and I need them for every device that supports iOS 13. Please DM them so we don’t clog up this channel. Thanks guys!

This alert message will be shown everytime you go back from a sub-menu and/or intensity is too high / too low for Color Effects, Presets, & Filters.

I just want it to be shown only when you select a GIF for Color Effects, Presets, & Filters. I don’t want it to show this alert when going back from one of the sub menus or provide an intensity too low or too high. It’s kind of an annoyance I’m wanting to improve.

@D3W10 Since my upcoming shortcut will be using Swing Updater, and my system requires two Shortcuts, is there any way for me to embed Swing Updater twice so I can have it check for updates on both?

My best thought is to somehow add a dictionary function to skip over the upload GIF part for back buttons and intensity too high/ too low stuff.

Maybe it’d work. But not too sure yet how I’ll do this.

@ItsChris @Kindred98 If it helps, here’s a device detector. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/283fbaaf7c254c1aa6b194c0a0ae2020 however, it only detects devices that have been manually added. This means that while I did add every iOS 13 device, and the iPod Touch 6, if a new device releases it may incorrectly detect it, until the detector is updated to add support for it. (edited)

@G30 looks like you got it sorted. I was going to suggest just reusing the gif input from earlier up top. Since all the new changes shortcuts seems to do much better with reusing something as a magic variable (then rename it to find it easier again) than it does with trying to reference or loop back the way it used to do it.
12:40
@G30 I had to drop a lot of my if chains and other ways to loop back to previous blocks and just go with use magic variable, pick the block then rename it 😂

Avatar
xAlien95 1106YYYY-174741
@zachary7829, I haven't looked at what mistake you could be doing with your approach, but converting the inputs to decimal, then sum and then reconvert to binary seems to require less actions (https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/7fc6d5adaaab4f2bafa9210226e51c74 I accomplished it with 21 actions, one half of the actions used in your Shortcut)
Avatar
zachary7829 1106YYYY-191636
Thanks, @xAlien95 ! While I do like your method, your shortcut seems to only output 4-bit values. I want a “full adder” that is able to output in 5-bit values as well. For example: 8+15 (1000 + 1111) invalidly shows up as 0111 on your shortcut.

@Burrito ScPL doesn't support iOS 13, you would have to rewrite the shortcut for iOS 12 and hope the automatic converter works well
Avatar
xAlien95 1112YYYY-103408
@ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL), it's almost an year you're working with the WFActions.plist directly. Do you think it's possible to use it as direct "source of truth" for a Shortcut editor now that iOS 13 is out and third party apps don't have WFActions bundled directly in the Shortcuts app? I tried looking at the last .plist and, man, it's messy as hell. Take the WFAction.Discoverable parameter for example: sometimes it's not there (undefined), sometimes is true, sometimes is false, sometimes is even a string ("YES" or "NO"). Furthermore not all the actions share the same JSON attributes. I wonder why, after all these years, the Shortcuts team hasn't decided to erase them all and to rewrite them from scratch following a unique and common pattern. I can't imagine how dirty could be the code used to read actual action metadata.. considering that it's strongly typed since it's Swift or objc. (edited)
Avatar
ᵖᶠᵍ (ScPL) 1112YYYY-104942
@xAlien95 no. lots of things are wrong and strange and unused. If you want to see the mess, here is a complete set of typescript types for the entire wfactions.plist https://github.com/pfgithub/shortcuts3.0-types/tree/shortcuts3.0/src/Data/ActionDataTypes
10:51
why? I think lots of things are done within action classes instead of the wfactions file
10:52
there probably isn't a gigantic amount of mess related to reading it because of how much is done within action classes
Avatar
xAlien95 1112YYYY-110103
The only way would be to check each action one by one, add the needed tests and all and, everytime a new iOS update comes out, to check for updated actions in the plists (although an action not getting updated metadata doesn't necessarily mean that it hasn't been edited on class level...)
11:02
Uh.. so much work. And for every new app that adds third party Shortcuts actions, you have to export and check them. Most of those apps aren't even free to use.

Sometimes you can't see the forest for the trees. 🌲🌲🌲 The actual application is a bit more complex (this was just a sample shortcut to better ask the question), but I think it will work with the other shortcut as well.

Does anyone know if either of these are possible? 1) To trigger a connection to a already know Bluetooth device? Not turn Bluetooth on but using shortcuts to tell the phone to connect to said device. 2) To enable or disable auto correct in a shortcut (to turn it off at the start and turn it on after the shortcut runs).

You seem to have the latest version. The issue is that A13 files are also there, and I don’t really know how to distinguish one from the one that’s in use and one that’s not. Even then, changing to minumum will only fix the XR, since there are devices like the iPad 6 where changing it to minimum will make it think it’s an A9.

I will never completely understand how shortcuts handles dictionaries. If I have a dictionary at the top of the shortcut it functions great. I can pretty print it and the whole thing. If I try to reference it from an external source (tool box, jar, iCloud) it comes in okay as pure text but the second I tell it to treat it like a dictionary or to make one from said input it just cuts off 80% and makes some weird output 😂

If I wanted to use set value to set a value in a existing dictionary but the number entries in that value would change (ie an array) how would I do that?

I mean if I was tracking how many times I ate a French fry but that number would be different each time and always start at 0 what would be the bet way to add the value?

@ItsChris what’s not working? The ISBN? It’s just one I found on routine hub. You could try to copy the isbn number to the clipboard and open a webpage to https://isbnsearch.org
ISBN Search
Find books easily using ISBN, title, or author searches. Search using ISBN-10 or ISBN-13.

Then paste it there but I don’t know if they have a api so you will probably have to scrape the data.

That part is simple(ish). Just use a url block and a get contents of url block then a make rich text from html block
21:04
The issue with that site at least, or one issue, is it will make people authenticate via captcha either randomly or if a page is called to often within a time frame
21:04
You could try WebKit so you can authenticate and pass it on
21:11
Okay so here is my best guess at how to do this. Search isbn search site Open link in WebKit inside shortcuts Copy isbn number Shortcuts uses clipboard to pull details from open library api Get details you want from api return
21:11
If you want you can try to use OCR to grab the isbn for you but that’s an extra couple steps

MattR 1211YYYY-211809
Another option is to skip isbn and just use open library. If I get a chance I will sign up for a developer api to test build something. But you can probably use a ask for input box and send a author or title search and get a json back that would have the name and all the other data in it and not even use isbn search

Short summary. You have a few issues going on but not your fault. The HTML is fine the PDF function cuts it in two so I added a combine block. Now it fits. I added a step to convert selected image to PNG it seems to have helped with not screen grabs.
18:07
The best best would actually be to take the photo and apply the changes as a overlay rather than via html as you can save a few steps and quality.
18:08
But I don't know if you can do that that. The last issue I don't know how to address (well nothing that works totally yet) is cropping. Right now any attempt messes it up. Best case set your background to black via html in the style section or transparent...

As it is now it will work it just will have a white border around the image. It might be doable to save it as a file or vCard instead of making a pdf from the html and that would get rid do the page border and split. Best case would be to figure out how to treat it strictly as a photo or do your over lay as a alpha and skip the html but I get why you did it.

Does anyone know a good way to search the contents of a dictionary for a term and grab just those results? Ie if you have 50 restaurant names and want to see only the ones with grill in the title (with out pulling it and search then)? I can do it using Pro Tool Box and I don't mind that as people can always do a full search but I would like to figure out how to do it via shortcuts.

Apparently not sleeping helps lol. I like the approach. Here is what I have now using tool box pro. Look at the search or filter section. Not sure how to do that in shortcuts but regex might work.
02:37
Also figure out how to do an Menu in my W3 I posted earlier. Ow if you run it you can click Menu and tap through to see the various options inside the dictionary.

In this case I am trying to figure out how to search the dictionary to include or exclude entries based on various criteria. All things with a certain name or with a positive value for armor (or any value for it that's not nil).
Avatar
nilayperk 1226YYYY-024210
I see, might mess with FlexSearch tomorrow.
02:43
If data is to big, regex tends to crash shortcuts, so I believe using Javascript to output desired results is the best option.
02:47
@MattR could you possibly write search engine queries that you implying? I assume you might want something like “ head shot atk > 2138”
Avatar
MattR 1226YYYY-084017
Yeah. Basically I want to be able to search against the various entries for an object. It does not have to be all of them. So if I wanted to search for items with a certain name or part of a name I could. Or if I wanted so search for at or above a numerical value I could. Or to use the search as a filter to show me only items that had above zero for a stat
08:43
So something like filter/search for the word Turn. Or filter out all objects with no entry or 0 for Shot Attack. Or Show all head pieces. Or show all pieces of a attribute type. Or search for items with 1000 or more armor or all head items with 1000 or more armor.

nilayperk 1226YYYY-222710
@MattR I can’t understand FlexSearch JS Library. Which is the best solution out there. I know the GitHub docs are detailed but they are essentially code snippets and info table. It dosen’t help understanding into details on how to customize.
22:29
Also, where did you scrap off data from? Because you are missing an essential numerical key “id” in javascript objects key-value pair. The reason is that every search engine library relies on it to increase efficiency.

It's really strange. Shortcuts can also be imported without going through Safari. This is no secret and no witchcraft (see shortcut below). But for me, this only works in small, insignificant shortcuts with few actions. In 1Backup (and other shortcuts) I tried this long time ago, but it only works—if at all—in edit mode. Does anyone have an explanation for this behavior? Or does anyone know another way to achieve the same? https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/e6467266252c40149ca2e597aa90c4f9

ROP 🌈 1230YYYY-183748
@supermamon Thanks, as always, for your help! Well, unfortunately, that doesn't solve it. But now I know where the problem is. Since the shortcut (in which I want to use the function) always calls itself, I use "Exit Shortcut" actions. But exactly because of this action it does not work. And that is somehow logical. On the other hand, unfortunately it doesn't work without the "Exit" action, because then the shortcut calls itself again, which also prevents it from working. So I don't think that there is a solution for this—in my case. (edited)

In a Shortcut I am working on I have several html documents that I combine in pages. So on each page there is a back and next button to the next page. However in order to make it go back and forward I use a repeat action which lets the variable containing the html document in front be available to the one behind for the Next button. I use the previous & next buttons to open the document by using the
data:text/html;base64,{html-page base64 encoded}
url. Is there a way to page the documents without using a repeat action since it constantly base64 encodes the same things which makes it load longer. For those who find what I wrote a little bit complicated you can view what I mean in the bottom of this Shortcut. https://routinehub.co/shortcut/3771 (edited)

@AShortcuts your only real alternative is to data scrap the webpage. I recently saw a post on the subreddit where someone had figured out to run java inside shortcuts now so you could data scrap for it. Alternatively I just use a script that copy's the text in a tired or button to the clipboard then I just grab that inside the shortcut.
Avatar
MattR 0102YYYY-022456
Heading to bed @G30. But I have a few unformed ideas I will check into tomorrow. I do think it's possible though but it will require getting multiple values before hand and combining them via repeat with... or a few other ideas I have. Non of which are easy to explain.
02:27
But in short my first hunch would be to grab the data you need pertaining to source. Then grab what you need pertaining to modification. Then you will have to feed them all into one repeat with or repeat block.
02:28
Can you send me a shortcut link that has JUST the dictionary's in it? If not I will use the shortcut on routine hub

I know you don't need them now

But if you want to do this all in one go will probably will. Like I said it's hard to explain but I will try to setup a example shortcut to send you tomorrow.

How to restore shortcuts backed up using launchcuts?

LaunchCuts does not backup shortcuts. You can create folders in LaunchCuts that you fill with your shortcuts. But these are all just "aliases". Only the folder structure itself is saved, not your shortcuts.

The thing is i need to to repeat after the second choose menu. The first menu is the selection of what it's building (cars, table, etc...) then the second choose is where it picks the custom elements (color, alignment, etc...)
17:12
I tried adding one there but it just skips right over it like it isn't there.
17:14
Scratch part of that. That is where I should need a repeat with each but when I add one it skips it and uses just the choice from the first menu.

It might just be better to loop it by looping the shortcut? Then just keep adding to the variable Element?
Avatar
ROP 🌈 0104YYYY-172843
General question: Do you use the "Quick Look" action from time to time after each action? This is a good way to debug. This way you can see exactly how far it works and can start at the exact point where it no longer works. Can you send me the updated version where you tried the "Repeat with each" action (the one from the screenshot). That's exactly where it should go, after the second menu where you select "Extra Options".

Otherwise maybe try the convert action and see if it can do a gif? Or load all the stills into one variable then try convert to gif? Those are all just guesses. I used to have a shortcut that would create a gif from still photos but I don't anymore. Maybe all the gifs does it?

This also happens to me from time to time, with some shortcuts, but eventually the shortcut calms down. If you don't go back to edit mode, the "Chosen Items" will work, right? This is definitely a bug and can't be fixed other than clicking on "Text" (if it's text). But yes, send me the link. 😁 I haven't had such problems with MergeCuts so far, but the problem is not necessarily directly related to MergeCuts either. This has happened to me several times with normal shortcuts. Especially those that were originally created in iOS 12.

I can help more with it for sure. One of the first things I do with cases like this, is to look at the dictionary as a whole json doc instead of the nested dictionaries
17:32
Maybe each of those guns needs a separate dictionary for their respective equipment
Avatar
G30 0125YYYY-173621
I was thinking of it that way as well. Most, if not all guns from each weapon category has their own set of attachments. But in a way to where all SMGs have the same attachments to choose from where there’s no attachment to select from that isn’t available for all other SMGs.

I believe you only applied the Regex for Primary Weapon Attachments as well. If so, then it isn’t working correctly.
22:13
Extended Mags and Fast Mags aren’t compatible with each other.
22:17
Maybe capitalization in the Regex and if statement matters. I’ll see about that.
22:18
Yeah. I think the capitalization matters. I gave it about 30 test runs after changing the case of the m in mag to uppercase. 😅

I believe so. I’ve tried to replicate the same for Secondary Weapon Attachments and think I’ve failed to do so correctly.

Would you mind taking a look? I got the two mags for it when it shouldn’t have done so.
22:24
Whoops. And it got extended mag twice. Not sure what I did wrong for it.

Avatar

Basically, repeat the whole process for a set amount of times so that multiple classes are generated?

I assume there could be a use case for that if a user wanted to generate 5 random classes.

@G30 This shouldn’t be too difficult. But you could use a dictionary Odom to determine whether or not that weapon as attachments. Then, based on that dictionary value, you can display the alert in one way or the other.

@daidardi I was born and raised in Germany, but my parents come from the Adriatic coast, opposite Venice, from Croatia. My grandmother had to speak Italian by law for a while (of course that was a long time ago), but until today all road signs are in Croatian and Italian. Italian was always the second national language and my parents speak Italian too. I understand it only rudimentarily. And I can't speak very much either. I must have been to Italy ten times, six of them in Venice. In any case, I could easily order an espresso and an ice cream. 😆

So I’m brain dead at the moment and for the life of me can’t figure out the logical arguments to archive and save pictures dated from a previous month. My goal is to when my shortcut runs next, notices it’s a new month, or can just scan for older ones, but I don’t want it to pick up any files with the current month in their file name, I want to archive the old months all together then delete all the files. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I made a dictionary containing how many days were in each month, including leap year, if that even helps me at all??

It looks like the old iOS 12 shortcut has been deleted after it was originally released as normal. If you remember the corresponding ID (in case of Week Ahead for iOS 12: 7036), you can delete the published shortcut with an ID of e.g. 9999 and change the URL https://routinehub.co/shortcut/9999 to https://routinehub.co/download/9999. This way you can probably still access the shortcut even if the actual page no longer exists. Give it a try.

I'm going crazy. Is that the intention to have the translation appear under the original? And if so, why don't I see the translation with the other entries? As mentioned before, words that have already been translated are still displayed in the list, which should actually only show those that have not yet been translated. Some terms I cannot translate without knowing the context. A simple example "Correct and Exit". Does this mean that everything is correct and the shortcut should be closed? Or does it mean to correct and exit something?

@ROP 🌈 no....!!!! 😂 it’s just to help you to remember what terms you already translated 😉 If you check, at sc starting, you can also select to ignore terms already done. However “correct and exit” is a choice you have to do when a previous instance crashed. At starting SC check it happens and, ignoring what you we’re doing, ask you what to do. So you can stop Sc and verify manually. Crash is an error. And if you are operating with files I think is better warn you 😜

ROP 🌈 0205YYYY-173333
@daidardi I have translated all five entries in the screenshot. But the last three in the picture don't show the translation. And if I set that only the terms I haven't translated yet should be displayed, I still get terms that I have already translated. What does "Filtrate" mean? I think you mean filter, so "Filter" not "Filtrate". And is it intentional that the alphabet is missing letters? "Active Wifi" means that the Wifi is active. If this is a button that allows the user to "Activate Wifi", then it must be "Activate Wifi", not "Active Wifi". Despite your explanation, I don't understand why it says "Correct", sorry. I'm sorry, but it's really hard to do these translations because many entries are not good English. I know that your mother tongue is Italian, so it's not your fault.

ROP 🌈 0205YYYY-180221
You wrote "Active Wifi." Anyone who translates this literally will get it wrong because you should have written "Activate Wifi". Hai scritto "Active Wifi". Chiunque lo traduca alla lettera si sbaglierà, perché avreste dovuto scrivere "Activate Wifi" (Attivare il Wifi). (edited)
18:04
There are many places where you have translated it incorrectly into English. That's why it's so difficult to translate it into German. Ci sono molti posti dove l'hai tradotto in inglese in modo errato. Ecco perché è così difficile tradurlo in tedesco.

I just try to translate it as best I can. That's all I can do, because otherwise I'll have to ask you for every entry. And unfortunately your answers are not always understandable either. Cerco solo di tradurlo al meglio. Questo è tutto quello che posso fare, perché altrimenti dovrò chiedere a voi per ogni voce. E purtroppo anche le vostre risposte non sono sempre comprensibili.

No.. if you delete @‘daidardi folder you delete all files including settings and all other shortcuts of mine. It was just for this time. Common files change regularly.. :/ it was really strange.

I only had two folders, deleting the parent folder had no consequences that i know of. unless there are other folders that I should have. I see you have many, but i’m struggling to get any one of your shortcuts to work. It’s the same issue with all of them. Deleting the entire folder should be a clean restart, and redone loading the shortcuts to be sure nothing is left, but it doesn’t work.

ROP 🌈 0210YYYY-165730
@daidardi What exactly should happen in the background? You cannot create folders, save shortcuts and so on in the background. What would be the advantage?
Avatar
daidardi 0210YYYY-170108
For example I’d want doing backup regularly. But, as you know, you can’t start shortcuts automatically, you need however tap something. So, for my using, I created automatic routine that starts after shourtcuts I use often. Of course, they get if starting is in background and they ask nothing. If you start normal the menu starts! 😉 (edited)

(it’s a beta discounted for now) https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/478c7f2d3e534f318dd03b963929c48b If you check instructions you can see that for first there’s an “if” option.

Depends on where the file is located.
16:15
If it's on a site ran by another company/person you need an API or to setup a request that mimics the http request it needs to add the data to the right place
16:16
If it's in a online cloud you run then you need to know how to update the file there or download it then change it and re upload it

Deleted User 0212YYYY-075648
@ROP 🌈 Doesn’t sort for me. I just checked by adding to the least “last modified”, and it doesn’t filter into the results. This doesn’t seem like it’s working correctly as i’m sure you use “Filter Files,” since tested it in another shortcut, it has the same issue. I’m having trouble backing up a large number of shortcuts in 1Backup. The Run Shortcut progress bar stops over 50% of the way, but the action still has the spinning indicator. I waited and had to stop it. No backups are taken.
Avatar
ROP 🌈 0212YYYY-081022
@Deleted User Thanks for your feedback. Yes, I use the filter function to display the most recently edited shortcut at the top. iOS or the Shortcuts app has its own behavior regarding this filter function. For example, if you only change a text/value within an action, it will not be counted. I have no influence on this. It is as it is. Responsible for this is the iOS. 1Backup is mainly designed to backup single shortcuts into different folders. There is an option to backup all shortcuts at once, but this is not recommended. Depending on how many shortcuts are there, this can cause the shortcut to hang. It also depends on the device you are using (or on the memory) and how good your internet connection is. Just choose a smaller number of shortcuts.
Avatar
MattR 0212YYYY-095912
@ROP 🌈 have you considered making an option that uses Pushcuts Automation to off load the back up all at once to a separate device? It could back up say five at a time or even one at a time? (Once the user accepts the icloud link option)

Hello does anyone use this shortcut? https://routinehub.co/shortcut/1615 Does it work for you?
RoutineHub - Link Things To Bear & Bear To Things
Aimed at more seamless integration between Things and Bear.

18:00
I've noticed it's not working as it use to. 1. It doesn't auto redirect/return back to Things 3 from Bear (I have to manually go back to shortcuts app to continue workflow). 2. Once the workflow is complete (back in the Things3 app) the callback URL to Bear is missing the Unique Identifer so clicking the link opens Bear but not in the specified Note due to the missing UID (edited)

Any help in understanding why this shortcut is no longer working as it did originally would be appreciated.

This shortcut seems to be made for iOS 12, which means unfortunately it would not work on 13 without fixing it yourself or contacting the creator.

Dealz 0214YYYY-014304
@Burrito Yes, on iOS 13 That would make sense, any and all of the shortcuts (similar function to the one I linked to on routinehub.co) that I tried from around the interweb don't work, same end outcome no unique identifier in the Bear callback URL. (edited)
01:47
I can't find any that has been updated for iOS 13, the one I linked on routinehub.co is the best one I found in terms of the workflow but unfortunately my ability to edit shortcuts is basic and I wouldn't know where to start in figuring out how to get it working for iOS 13. It's been more than 12 months, I guess the original creator won't be updating it 😔 (edited)

When I crop an image and want to have rounded corners, the result differs depending on whether I do it with an iPad or an iPhone. With the iPhone I get the same result with a radius of 300 what I get on the iPad with a corner radius of 200. What the hell?

No, on the iPad it will work with 200.
08:26
Normally you should not have to use different values for different devices…
08:29
It's not normal that the same shortcut behaves differently on the iPad than on the iPhone. It is not possible that I have to type 300 on the iPhone and 200 on the iPad to get the same result. That would mean that you would have to offer different shortcuts depending on the device. That's crazy. And I've never experienced it that way before.
Avatar
MattR 0215YYYY-181011
Only thing I can think of is the difference in resolution of the screen? When I used rounded corners in stuff the value that looks subtle on my phone looks comical on my computer and still bad on an iPad? Or maybe that's totally off base.
18:10
Maybe try a value between the two? And when I say resolution I mean DPI stuff not just x by y

Avatar
MattR 0217YYYY-210452
@ROP 🌈 yeah there might not have been. It's only a theory but I know I have seen differences thanks to the DPI difference between devices but it's also odd behavior. Maybe force your viewport time a certain scale or pixel size that's the same on all devices (say 600 pix wide) and see if you still see the some thing? I don't know just tossing out an idea. It could be a crap one 😂

@MattR I always find the way you think about possible solutions very interesting. These are trains of thought that I would never have. Thanks a lot for your input! By the way: I have actually found a solution to the issue. So I can now completely do without masking the images. A small change in the JavaScript code has been successful and the badges are displayed with rounded corners again! 🥳 (edited)

Avatar
MattR 0220YYYY-131812
@Eleven11 I have used it in the past. But not in anything I give out to external use. It's helpful if your looking to see what returns your getting or to get specific information (such as an accepts header).
13:19
I have also used the path one to break down a url. But honestly anything you can get from those actions you can probably find without them and easier. Not something I would have in a end user situation
13:23
You can use the header one to get information on content encoding, server or domain names, cookies and their expectation dates.
13:23
What you get changes if you use it in a api call but not by much
13:24
Image attachment
13:26
Realistically it's fairly useless 😂 unless you confirming what you already know such as the type of utf encoding or what you should be sending it. If you need to know cookie information or use a service that controls login access via cookies you might be able to use it some how. Or want to confirm the domain of a phishing site maybe?

Avatar
MattR 0221YYYY-164117
@Eleven11 I have no idea how you would handle the logistics but one example is you could use it to get a cookie that never expired that you issue your self and it could a sort of user system.
Avatar
Eleven11 0221YYYY-194451
@MattR interesting idea, I’ve never messed with cookies before, besides deleting them every once in awhile, what kind of user system do you think could be set up. Possible to create your own cookie that tracks your internet movements then click on a shortcut and it could summarize some statistics on whatever information you gathered from your cookie?

I have a serious question.
12:29
How would I go about only triggering an IFTTT webhook only once at the beginning of a shortcut upon running it? (edited)
12:30
For example, ALL THE GIFs! is a function based shortcut with working back buttons. Some of these back buttons call the shortcut name itself to re-run the shortcut from the beginning. I don’t want it to run through the IFTTT trigger every-time I go back to the main menu. Lol (edited)
12:36
But I do want the IFTTT Trigger to be called every time the shortcut is ran (exluding the shortcut itself being called from the back buttons).
Avatar
D3W10 0224YYYY-125058
Maybe adding a key into all the rerun dictionaries
12:51
Like I do in some of my shortcuts
12:51
I create a key: runmode and in value I put: fast
12:52
In the top of the shortcut I put an if statement if dictionary value for runmode is not fast (edited)

@Eleven11 honestly I don't know how you would go about using it. Just a idea I had. I imagine you would have to have your own server on a computer or something that would issue the cookie. You could link a cookie to a generated username then use the cookie as a password or a tag like a UUID for a users files, actions, etc... or to then trigger a login page or something. Once again it's all theoretical.

@Deleted User not sure if you got it sorted but is you went the html Route it would be a simple /n to trigger a new line.

@Burrito It depends on the project on the one hand and on the other hand on whether you want to/can spend money at all. And it depends on how cheap the domain is. You can't really generalize that.

I added in an IFTTT Webhook to be triggered when the shortcut is ran. But the problem is, Run Shortcut actions with an empty Input will trigger this IFTTT Webhook since the If statement that’s used to run the IFTTT Trigger uses If {Input} does not have any value. (edited)
18:33
So at the moment, certain Back buttons in the shortcut will trigger that webhook when I don’t want it to. I only want the webhook to be triggered WHEN THR SHORTCUT IS FIRST RAN. (Not only on the first ever run of the shortcut though)!

ROP 🌈 0302YYYY-042148
@G30 Please change the behaviour of the webhook. When you use the shortcut for the first time, the webhook is triggered even if you don't want it to be triggered. You can only opt-out afterwards. It should be so that you can decide for or against it from the beginning, without the opt-in being activated from the beginning. The way the shortcut acts now violates rule no. 6.

Seriously. Why must people be this low? Just because it’s there doesn’t mean it has to be exploited. I explicitly ruled out possibilities in the shortcut so that the IFTTT Webhook is only triggered each time the shortcut is ran. The IFTTT Webhook can not be triggered unless you are opted-in to trigger the webhook. It won’t be triggered when not connected to a Wi-Fi network or Cellular/Mobile Data. And people still… automate or manually bomb/flood the URL to spam my notifications purposefully. It’s not cool. (edited)

@tdevx This can indeed happen. Here's the thing: MergeCuts keeps the UUIDs. This has the advantage that the Magic Variables are retained. But it also has the disadvantage that there can be conflicts with the UUIDs. In an upcoming version of MergeCuts I will probably offer the option to replace the UUIDs to avoid duplicates. I suspect that you have exactly this problem after merging the individual shortcuts. Sorry! In this case please try ActionsCuts. https://routinehub.co/shortcut/3761

ActionCuts embeds shortcuts within shortcuts and extracts actions from existing shortcuts.

Bah shortcuts your a funny thing. So random but I just found. I have two shortcuts. One uses a native dictionary action the other converts text to a dictionary. They both output the sage final text (the native action requires an extra edit to remove the / From the app wanting to escape it). Yet the one using a native action block will not display correctly on a webpage and the one that converts text to a dictionary will. Even though they output the exact same looking html...

Odd question, but I want to know if it’s possible to generate a UUID for a device via shortcuts. It could be used for my IFTTT webhook to determine that my shortcut is being ran on different devices with no personal information being given to me.

The UUID would need to be different for every device, but the same for one device if the shortcut is ran multiple times of course.

@G30 not sure about a UUID but you could do something like generate hash to generate a random key. I don't know how you would sync it up to ensure no duplicate numbers but the chances a duplicate hash would be pretty much nil.
20:41
@G30 you could have it upload the hash to a json or something. Or you could pull it and check for a existing key and if there is a match then regenerate the hash and repeat it until you get a none used key

You will need this @media thing. And the CSS inside the outer brackets overwrites the other CSS. So place it at the bottom, just before
</style>
11:47
Full example:
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0"> <title>Dark Mode</title> <style> body { background-color: #fff; color: #000 } /* Light Mode */ @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) { body { background-color: #000; color: #fff } /* Dark Mode */ } </style> </head> <body> <h1>Headline</h1> </body> </html>

Avatar
supermamon 0311YYYY-075029
on your shortcut, there's some sort of a new line character right before the base64 encoded image.
07:55
this regex worked after removing that new line BEGIN\:VCARD\nVERSION:3\.0\nN;CHARSET=utf-8:Two;\nORG:;\nPHOTO;ENCODING=b:[a-zA-Z\d\/\+]*={0,2}\nEND:VCARD\n+
Avatar
ROP 🌈 0311YYYY-080816
Where exactly was a new line character directly in front of the base64 encoded image? Strange, I can't see it. I see you escaped a lot more characters, too. That's what I wanted to do at first, but after it worked without the escape characters, I left it. Thanks a lot for your help @supermamon !!! When I test the regular expression on Regex101, it only works without
\n+
at the end. And really strange is that your regex unfortunately does not work in my shortcut? 🤔 🤷‍♂️

Oh, now I understand you! I had a new line character in the vCard, not in the regex! Now I saw it too! Then my regex from before works as well! Cool!!! So the regex I made was right!!! 😁 General question: Do you think your regex solution is better than mine? There are only small differences and both lead to the same result.
Avatar
supermamon 0311YYYY-081844
i think either is ok. differences are very minor.
08:21
but the \n+ at the end makes a difference wether you're OC about the resulting double line breaks between the resulting vcards (edited)
Avatar
ROP 🌈 0311YYYY-082550
You mainly use a few more escape characters and for the Base64 image you used
[a-zA-Z\d\/\+]={0,2}
(I used this regex to do it:
[a-zA-Z0-9\/+]*={0,2}
) That's right, I'll be happy to take over the
\n+
in the end. That makes perfect sense! Thanks again for your help!!! Really appreciate it! The main mistake I made was just that I overlooked the new line in the vCard. 🤦‍♂️
Avatar
supermamon 0311YYYY-082830
\d == 0-9 but i'm not sure if the regex engine optimizes between digit match and range match

the \+ is because I wasn't sure if + acts a modifier or not when inside the bracket

Ok guys, I'm just testing a shortcut of mine for its functionality. To speed this up, I would like to automate the shortcut to always select the next entry from a list. So first list entry, then the second, then the third and so on. Of course, further actions follow after the respective list entry. So you always have to return to the list. Any ideas?

By the way: This little typo runs through hundreds of shortcuts, because it was once communicated this way. But it is not necessary at all to use four semicolons. One is enough. Don't worry, almost all my shortcuts still have these four semicolons. 😂

ROP 🌈 0313YYYY-155315
I wouldn't center it because you can never center it 100%. Depending on the device, it might look centered or it might not. The whole menu is left aligned, so it is ok if the line is left aligned too. You're even lucky that the info for the changelog and the release notes are almost the same length. This automatically creates a homogeneous overall picture.

ROP 🌈 0313YYYY-155535
@zachary7829 Interesting. I've never tested it without semicolons. If you add a note, for example, you must not use a semicolon at all, because otherwise it becomes part of the note.

I know, I have no idea why shortcuts even have it other than ones made with vCard creator tools.

ROP 🌈 0313YYYY-155852
BEGIN:VCARD and END:VCARD are sufficient because they are already the elements that define the beginning and end. And I always use the UTF-8 CHARSET because it is actually a standard. In German it supports, for example, the umlauts äüö.
15:59
I see what you mean. But I still don't think I would do it. The separator is supposed to separate the entire area. @G30

Not on hand. Basically what I am doing is copying all the text from a chat log then pasting it in something like number/excel in a table. Then deleting all the rows that don't have what I am looking for. So the copy and paste can be 2000 - 3000 rows but the final output is 100 - 200.

The image of the map is easier to do, but can I ask a higher level question, what is your end goal with this? Just to have an image of an address or a place on a map somewhere? Does it need to be google maps? Or will the much more detailed (in some cases) Apple Maps image work? 😝

We’re talking about a live map that track something. I want to put this embed in an html code

But if this is not possible, also an image of this map would be good

@alombi the image is definitely doable. But live tracking, I know you might be able to embed a google map HTML from their site but I’m not sure how well live track would work in shortcuts
Avatar
alombi 0321YYYY-171952
@mvan231 (ShortCasts) thanks! So, how can I take the image? Because I’ve tried a lot with live maps but no results (because there are no sites with a free embed map like the one I need)

Well, for one, it will always output “true.” But more importantly, it needs to be able to work with a number, I think, to make that comparison. Oh, and you can simplify the HTML by removing all the tags except <script> and </script>.

I said "You cannot go back". And he said "nope…" which means "No". I didn't ask a question. So I don't understand the answer "nope." In my language, the answer would be "yes". In the sense of "yes, you're right".
08:46
And "nope" means, "no, it's not true what you say."

@ItsChris You could have done that yourself. I posted the link with the gradient generator yesterday. 😉 But anyway, that was done quickly. Just replace the class ".welcome" in the style section with the following code: .welcome { background: linear-gradient(135deg, rgba(219,62,177,1) 20%, rgba(0,144,218,1) 50%, rgba(0,193,159,1) 90%); -webkit-background-clip: text; -webkit-text-fill-color: transparent; }
06:47
Generally speaking: Any text can have a gradient. But this does not work like with backgrounds, which are assigned to a div or another element. To give a text a gradient, we have to use a trick. For this we use "background-clip" and "text-fill-color". The fill color is set to transparent and with "background-clip" we create a kind of mask for the text. Through this mask the gradient shines, which we set classically with "background" and "linear-gradient".

Well, I like it simple. And ROP is my universal name for all kinds of purposes. Even my wifi, my printer and many more have the prefix ROP. One of my domains is ROP-Co.de (note the play on words with the domain ending. Co = Company / Co.de = Code / .de = Germany). So I will probably stay with ROP, even if I find the idea very funny. 😁 Some older devices are no longer in the list. (edited)

#off-topic @Kindred98 My diploma thesis in editorial design was a 250 page magazine about myself, which I called ROP. ROP is a composition of my first and last name. And it is the letters that appear most in my first and last name. Read backwards, it is the first three letters of my last name. Reading forward, the first two letters are the first two letters of my first name.

They are emojis converted into a GIF. The GIF was then Base64 encoded.

One thing I have been doing lately to debug and determine where issues are at is to add a text action at critical points of the shortcut and append that text action into a log.txt file in icloud drive. I typically put some note and the current date/time so I can see the order they happen in

My first attempt at showing the map failed to work, but maybe it was my method? Turning the text to b64 then decoding with the url. @ROP 🌈 were you saying it could all be run from the same page of HTML text? Or do I really have to pull the script from somewhere to make it work?
Avatar
ROP 🌈 0406YYYY-150658
@Eleven11 It depends on what exactly you want to do with the JavaScript. If a "Show Webpage" action is used at the end, the JavaScript can be used in the text action (or in a dictionary which is then linked). B64 of JavaScript is actually only necessary if you want to generate a result with the JavaScript, which is then passed to the shortcut for further processing.

@Eleven11 In purely formal terms, i.e. in terms of structure, everything looks fine. So it must be some other issue. Did you test the code in a normal browser? If it doesn't work on principle, you've made a mistake somewhere. But I can't see it because the last time I looked at Leaflet was a few years ago.

One last thing for today: Whenever you have the feeling that a JavaScript code (which has been inserted into a dictionary) in a shortcut does not work (but works in a browser), I recommend to minify the js code. This has often been a solution for me. For example: https://javascript-minifier.com (edited)

I need some help with html in a Shortcut. In a html page I created a table of contents so that when you click on one of the links it contains, it will scroll down to that id. I would like for it to have a distance from the top of the screen to the id when the link is pressed.

It's so incredibly simple. All you need is some simple padding. No matter if it is "div" or "p", you can give all elements an inner distance. Just imagine that they are all rectangles. Look at the graphic: For example, each box is a "div" container. The containers have no margin between them. To prevent the text in the boxes (the black line) from starting at the top, the individual divs need an inner padding from the top.
Image attachment
09:06
If you then click on the link in the list, the document will scroll to the top of the div, but the text will be shown by the inner space further down.
09:07
For example

Here's the full example from the shortcut shown above. The JavaScript is only there for the "smooth scroll" effect. If you don’t want it, just delete it.

@Eleven11 I think that with "Get Contents of URL" this is only possible if an API is used. I've already figured it out that way. When it comes to filling out something directly on a web page, I only see the way via the share sheet and the "Run JavaScript" action. For this purpose I have also implemented it in the past. But you have to find out exactly what the individual elements on the website are called in order to be able to fill them out using JavaScript. Just an old example: (edited)

Eleven11 0408YYYY-141903
@ROP 🌈 so the script you just showed me couldn’t possibly be implemented without being on the website. I guess my goal was to just click on the shortcut and have it skip the login page all together. I can find the names of the elements easy enough

@Eleven11 Afaik, you can only inject JavaScript into a web page if you use the "Run JavaScript" action.

Oh ya.. hrmmm, well thank you for the answer. I’ll have to ponder over that
14:30
@ROP 🌈 do you think, if we took the websites entire source code, have that script implemented into it, we could successfully launch the website with one click and have it do the magic that way?
Avatar
ROP 🌈 0408YYYY-143352
In principle yes and in principle no. If you grab the entire source code of a website and integrate it into a shortcut, the website is no longer located on a server. But this is needed to really log in somewhere.

Does the shortcut so far press any button on the website? I explain above several times that clicking a button only works by calling a shortcut via Share Sheet in Safari.
17:35
Then I'm stumped. Does ATG click all those buttons you've manually clicked in the video now??? Then why can't you click the button you're mentioning above now?
17:40
I read this (image) earlier and remembered the conversation yesterday because the question seemed similar to me. And in my opinion a click can only be simulated with JavaScript. And as far as I know, JavaScript can only be injected via the share sheet, which I just explained above.

@G30 Really glad you figured out how to do it. I guess I was just confused that you were talking about clicking a button. Basically, you simply wanted to call up the URL "behind" it and use POST. Kinda like that: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/8312be35c1284b2d8501d5866a0cc2f7 — I have to admit that it has been a very long time since i have dealt with your shortcut, so i am not up to date anymore. 😉☺️ (edited)

I am late to the party and not nearly as well versed in this as you all but the only way I can see to get form data like that is to basically fake it. If you want to get the form data like that you would be better off making your own HTML page that's generated inside shortcuts then set it up as a form and use a copy document but target all the text fields in the form. Then send it to the clipboard and use that to populate the data how you need to send it to log in.
23:40
This is one way I found to simulate a button click if it helps

Here is the relevant code... <div> <h2>Entry for Current Date </h2> </div> <form class="button"> <textarea placeholder="Dear Diary..." id="myText"></textarea> <p> <button class="button" id="btnCopy">Complete</button> <br> </form> <form class="info">This will copy your text to clipboard. Press "Done" once you have pressed this. </form> <script> document.getElementById("btnCopy").addEventListener("click", function(){ var copyText = document.getElementById("myText"); copyText.select(); document.execCommand("Copy"); alert("Copied to clipboard!"); }); </script>

There is no option for "no alert"

I tried that for leaving blank and it still uses the default alert time set in the settings app (15 mins in my case) (edited)

I think it may not be possible actually. I just set it to 12/12/2099 at 09:00 and it just set an alert for Dec 12 at 9 am but has a secondary alert at my default time of 15 mins

@Burrito , @Martindb s routinehub report has a good version of a shortcut timer in it. I have used timers in my shortcuts as well, but generally I just create a log file with the date/time and then reference that and compare to the last reading

@MattR you have key:value pairs that have an empty value and you want to remove them from the dictionary?
Avatar
MattR 0417YYYY-100638
@mvan231 (ShortCasts) in my case they are empty because they are attributes that apply to some entries but not all. So the category exist as a whole for all entries and is empty if it does not apply. If I get dictionary from a text box then they don't show up but if I pull them from a native dictionary they say the word text because it was to add "" to them even when empty
Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0417YYYY-101107
Interesting. So you want to hide them if they are empty?

MattR 0417YYYY-104135
Ideally yeah. If I go the text box route they don't show but just tying to figure out why and how to ditch them if I use a dictionary action

mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0417YYYY-104335
You mean by building the dictionary action? What do you mean "they don't show" are you using a choose from list somewhere?

When you use assistive touch and enter the shutdown menu from the settings general menu, you can press assistive touch and then hold on the home button in the asssitive menu the screen will flash and you'll return to home aceeen. At that point, RAM is cleared and all app states are cleared.

What’s the best way I can avoid trying to get the contents of a URL in a shortcut when the shortcut retrieves the URL from your clipboard to ensure it’s only trying to retrieve a .GIF file?
12:49
If Clipboard {As File —> File Extension} ends with Gif is what I have. But it stalls out on URLs such as https://routinehub.co/shortcut/3523 (edited)
RoutineHub - ALL THE GIFs!
A modern shortcut for the antiquated format. Now better than ever before!

I wonder if you use a get images from input and put the URL there if it would work, but if the site is down, then it still won't work

@G30 you could always try a white list approach. As in if clipboard contains various domains then do x otherwise dump it into a variable that you do not use
12:42
Or a multiple of chain that checks for file extension then website

This is a long shot but if you could get the shortcut name from the routihehub link someone you could use that to filter too

You can use other services like shortcutor and the like but I don't find them to be convenient. It's typically best to just share the link. Only other method would be to get the contents of the shortcut and share that, but as you said already, it gets messy to read

i’ve been thinking about trying that forever but writing it on my phone seemed tedious. i ended up easily writing it on my mac in my icloud folder and it synced over without any fuss. even better than being able to make a shortcut on my mac honestly.

what would you want to do differently when running via siri vs running in shortcuts vs running in the scriptable app? there may be a workaround

mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0425YYYY-232713
This is very true. I don't have any good examples on the top of my head but I had considered something that would be useful previously if invoked via Siri. I believe it was using prompts vs not using prompts

It depends entirely on how much effort it needs to render, assuming of course the code itself isn’t flawed.
Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0427YYYY-185448
It's the code we have implemented in JAYD 5
<html> <head> <script> let url = "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9myt3qKHkY"; let web = new WebView(); web.loadURL(url); await web.waitForLoad(); let getVid = `function vid() { function filterNone() { return NodeFilter.FILTER_ACCEPT; } function getAllComments(rootElem) { var comments = []; var iterator = document.createNodeIterator(rootElem, NodeFilter.SHOW_COMMENT, filterNone, false); var curNode; while (curNode = iterator.nextNode()) { comments.push(curNode.nodeValue); } return comments; } let cmt = getAllComments(document.getElementById('initial-data')) let title = cmt[0].split('title')[2].split('"')[6]; return document.querySelector('video').src + 'rkk'+ title } ;vid()`; let vidURL = await web.evaluateJavaScript(getVid, false); return vidURL; document.write(vidURL); </script> </head> <body></body> </html>

It runs this in scriptable with a couple of inputs. The only thing I added was the document.write(vidURL); at the end

Seems possible, but I'm guessing you maybe already know a reason why it won't work based on your previous comment
Avatar
supermamon 0427YYYY-194512
it is possible with some work-arounds
19:46
the challenge is mostly because of async calls like waiting for a webpage to load or a javascript timer
19:48
see, when you run javascript code in shortcuts, everything runs in a sequential manner. but webpage requests are non-sequential, there's some sort of wait time.
19:50
example
var x = 'something something' x = 'another thing' document.write(x)
the above will work and you're get 'another thing' written on the page which you can use with shortcuts
19:53
var x = 'something something' var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhttp.onreadystatechange = function() { x = xhttp.responseText; document.write(x) } xhttp.open("GET", url, true); xhttp.send();
the above won't work with shortcuts because it will immediately return after xhttp.send()
19:53
it won't wait for the request to complete
20:00
but, you it may be possible to do it this way
var x = 'something something' var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest(); xhttp.open("GET", url, false); // <-- false makes it non-async xhttp.send(); x = xhttp.responseText; document.write(x)
20:01
in my experience, non-async calls can be finicky sometimes so you have to experiment a bit
Avatar
supermamon 0427YYYY-201036
now, that's only for getting the source code of the url. the reason I say that it may not work for you is that you need to run javascript on that source code. but the source code is just plain text, so you can't run javascript on that
20:11
Scriptable injects javascript on the webpage with its WebView.evaluateJavascript method (edited)

Question, is there a way to create a shortcut to toggle dwell controll on/off? It is under settings>accessibility>touch>assistivetouch. I saw a way to toggle assistive touch on/off but that turns the mouse off all together which would leave my client without any access to his device. He sometimes likes to use dwell but not all the time and it is difficult for him to navigate into the settings due to fatigue. Thank you!

@mvan231 (ShortCasts) @ROP 🌈 no, I don’t merge into another shortcut In different way I use it to creating an external dictionary (with public link) that I get at Shortcut’s starting.. so, menu, language variable and so on can be changed remotely.

ROP 🌈 0503YYYY-153624
I'm really sorry for you. This happens mainly when you either copy a shortcut/group of actions multiple times into another shortcut, or when a shortcut consists of actions that have been transferred with MergeCuts before. I actually and fortunately had no problems yet. But I know that the "error" exists and I know how to reproduce it. Changing the UUIDs is so complex that I will probably have to rebuild the entire shortcut to offer both options (i.e. keeping the UUIDs or replacing the UUIDs). But I have so many other things to do at the moment that I haven't gotten around to it yet. What I don't understand: Don't you have duplicates? When I'm working on a shortcut and want to make major changes, I duplicate it. If the changes work, I duplicate it again to make changes again. So I have a number of short term versions. Most importantly, I have the security of knowing that I can always fall back on a working version. In addition, I also make backups, of course. Keeping the UUIDs ensures that magic variables do not need to be reassigned. That was the advantage of it. It would be nice if you tell me if the magic variables work when you use ActionCuts. There have been some users who have reported that this is exactly what bothers them about ActionCuts and that's why they use MergeCuts. @Burrito (edited)

Robric18 0503YYYY-165349
I had someone approach me about this same UID issue in one of their shortcuts this week using my shortcut Copy and Paste a Shortcut. It’s a tough question to determine how to address. @Burrito, you should consider a backup solution which saves multiple copies of the shortcuts you backup rather than overwriting one file. Then you can go back to previous versions. This saved me after the iOS 12-13 conversion when a bunch of my shortcuts had empty values. I have restored from mid 2019 backups and the issues disappeared.
Avatar
Burrito 0503YYYY-165441
I love 1Backup so @ROP 🌈 suggestion ^
Avatar
ROP 🌈 0503YYYY-171053
The challenge with replacing the UUIDs is that they have to be compared and replaced over and over again after each merge in a kind of loop. So with every action that should be transferred to the target shortcut. I have already extracted this part from ActionCuts, but it can't be integrated into the shortcut one-to-one, but unfortunately requires the complete reconstruction of the shortcut. @Robric18 1Backup has mainly become the way it is because it supports the way I work. When I duplicate my shortcuts to make important changes, I rename them accordingly. In this way I can backup multiple versions with 1Backup. Of course it would also be possible to sort the entries by date. The title entry in the JSON would then have a timestamp added. But then you can't overwrite the old version, as it works until now, if the name is identical. It might be necessary to do another step, asking if you want to overwrite the shortcut or create a new version. @Burrito

I looked for it a few days ago when you mentioned it. There are. Just search for it on Google. The thing is, phone numbers can be formatted differently. For example, American phone numbers look different than European ones. In any case, there are different spellings that the regex has to take into account.

Anyone able to help me with something?
12:19
Let’s say for example, I have multiple lines of text such as this:
12:20
Test - com.test.123
12:21
I want to get the text before the - and have it as a text list. Then I want to also get the text after the - and do the same for it as well.
12:21
So there should be two separate lists.
12:21
I’m basically trying to separate app names from their bundle IDs.
Avatar
FifiTheBulldog 0506YYYY-122140
Split text by separator “ - “
12:21
Get first item from list
12:21
Add to variable “app names”
12:22
Get last item from list (same list as before)
12:22
Add to variable “bundle IDs”
12:22
So if you have multiple lines:

Split by new lines first and then repeat with each item in the Split Text variable.
Avatar
G30 0506YYYY-122705
I tried that. Hold on
Avatar
MattR 0506YYYY-122712
Then you have to figure out the split... each line would be one capture so you could split the line by spaces to get each word
12:27
So.... hello - test.test.test would come back as hello test.test.test then split with a space.
12:28
It's a regex I found for something else I did so it's not mine and I don't really explain how it works 😂

Heyy!

Don't know if this would fit in here or in #off-topic, since I need help with a service to use in a shortcut
06:53
So, I have this @tweeter_dm Twitter Bot
06:53
Currently it only works on Discord and I wanted to turn it into a shortcut too
06:55
But I need to find a way to use a webhook to send your text to the bot
06:56
I can't directly webhook the server, since it only has the local ip
06:58
What I need is basically a free api that has node-red support that works like this I webhook the api with a text -> api send the text to node-red (or node-red gets the text from api using my api key) -> node-red does the rest, this part I already have

Hi! I made an helper that I use for testing some shortcuts. It lets user to creating a dictionary as input to send into another shortcuts. Now it’s just for me but I hope it can be used by anyone.

It starts so...

Justo for testing it’s perfect. But if I want use for creating syntax to importing into another SC it use the “variable” I set. The question is:
14:44
Is there a way to let Shortcuts App to interpreting as variable (for test) as a real “variable”?! So you can link to variable set into another shortcut? I hope I’m clear... 😜

@ChesterAnthem Is it possible to modify Trail Blazer to function on iOS 13? @Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) and @Entee (far too many to list) mentioned folder traversal and plist handling still work. That is a seriously impressive piece of engineering which could make it easy to write Functional Shortcuts out of multiple pure function shortcuts and one read/write IO shortcut. If ANYONE knows how to go about fixing Trail Blazer, please take a look at it on RoutineH. I just left a couple of comments briefly detailing what’s not working.

it's easier to just use vw (% of width) in your html, and then calculate the other measurements in your shortcut yourself.

Robric18 0523YYYY-194025
@eaic (or anyone else) Speaking of using html, I’ve got a shortcut I’m working on that uses html to display a large number of images and then return the one that the user selects. However, I don’t know of a way to get this to work within shortcuts so I am using a workaround where it opens the html on an external webpage then returns the value once the image is selected. Can anyone figure out a way to do this within the show webpage action in shortcuts (or some smarter way)? This is what I have so far. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/2312e7a7ceee43339e8d46c336a991fd

I think it may be possible to use a couple of JavaScript methods to close the window and copy the selected Imgur URL to the clipboard.
19:43
Buuuut…that can’t be done with Show Webpage.
19:43
Because it doesn’t support data: URLs.
19:46
I’ve thought about using Quick Look, but then I remember that you can’t run JavaScript in Quick Look.
Avatar
Robric18 0523YYYY-194832
What I’m doing opens and goes to an external safari tab and then closes the tab once an image is selected and returns to the shortcut providing the selected image name as feedback to use further. I was just hoping to find a way to do it all inside of shortcuts without the need to exit to safari. (edited)
19:49
I guess I will need to stick with this less than optimal but totally usable solution.
Avatar
FifiTheBulldog 0523YYYY-194930
I wish
19:50
I would most likely opt for just showing the number and suit in an image menu like the kind you’re using in Tic Tac Toe.
19:50
Then only show the full card in Quick Look after it has been selected.
Avatar
Robric18 0523YYYY-195228
The shortcut I shared was actually a proof of concept to compare load times with lots of images if an image was being pulled in from the internet (fast) vs base64 encoded then loaded through the shortcut (very slow). It takes much longer to load 13 images base 64 encoded and safari chokes on it than to load all 52 from an internet source.
19:53
The real use case is for a shortcut like WWDC Me where the images of the keyboards displayed in the image menu are too small to tell the differences and you want to let the user see a larger version of the image they are selecting.
19:55
That was the genesis of this workaround. I felt that the preview images were too small and I wanted to make them bigger.
19:56
And I didn’t want to split them across four boxes like I would using the method in @eaic’s shortcut above.
Avatar
FifiTheBulldog 0523YYYY-200756
I guess the problem with splitting across boxes is that there is a nearly imperceptible but nevertheless present gap between those boxes.

@G30 check out the methods I use in copy and paste a shortcut (available on Routinehub) to change the menu color. It should give you a good idea of what needs to be done. I believe it’s basically select the colour from a dictionary and replace the colour line in the plist.
Avatar
G30 0527YYYY-161839
@Robric18 I’m making it so that if a color is chosen, exclude it from the glyph color selection menu.

Is it that you have a magic variable for an item that is below the current action?

I’m too anxious right now. I just want to find a fix to this issue and release an update for the shortcut. 🙁

That's not how you assign the magic variable tho
Avatar
G30 0529YYYY-071055
The wand button is to select a magic variable AFAIK.
07:11
It’s not magic. It’s shortcuts. 😂
Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0529YYYY-071150
Yes, but in your video, you select the "Updated Text" in the replace text action, then for some reason tap the middle of the action above it
07:12
I see now
07:13
I was confused because the first part of the video wasn't making sense in my head. Now with your explanation of what is happening and watching the video fully I see why you mean
Avatar
G30 0529YYYY-071332
It’s not replacing the text it should because the magic variable I selected manages to somehow use a magic variable further in the shortcut.
Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0529YYYY-071341
I don't think I've seen this happen in the same case you have here but I have seen it with variables for sure
07:14
I'd delete both of the replace text actions and put in a new replace text action and see if it continues (one at a time so you can copy and paste the RegEx of course)
Avatar
G30 0529YYYY-071507
I’ll give that a try.

mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0529YYYY-071546
I think the action IDs get mixed up sometimes when shortcuts get large and especially when shortcuts are generated using other shortcuts
07:16
Just try the first one you showed in the first three seconds of the first video
Avatar
G30 0529YYYY-071617
Wait 🤔
07:16
Can’t you just… “fix” actions IDs using something like MergeCuts?
07:16
Create an empty shortcut and paste the shortcut itself in the empty shortcut. Idk
Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0529YYYY-071903
That took me a second or third reading to get what you meant... but maybe. Isn't that what you're already doing though? I'd just try what I said first. Less steps and less risk

mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0529YYYY-071943
Just select all of the RegEx and copy, then delete the replace action and create a new one
07:20
It's because you are replacing {massive RegEx} with {thing} in Empty.plist
07:21
Is the glyph ID the value for Repeat Item above it?
07:21
Empty.plist is below your current position it seems
Avatar
G30 0529YYYY-072311
Well. 😦
07:23
I fixed the repeat action from going to the wrong magic variable. But the crashing still persists.
Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0529YYYY-072751
At the same location? Or at the other spot now?
07:29
I suggest to use a debug mode, where if you have a number or text action containing a 1 or certain word, it'll keep a run log of certain actions and the time stamp they happen. It makes it easier to track down issues. Then after, you can change the debug action at the top to be 0 or empty and then it won't continue logging
Avatar
G30 0529YYYY-072929

@mvan231 (ShortCasts) Same spot with the same issue.

That doesn't tell anything other than "it's not working" Nice. What was the issue?
Avatar
G30 0529YYYY-073806
Essentially, I was trying to replace a REGEX match with the Current Color magic variable in an empty shortcut’s .plist file.
07:38
I should have been replacing Icon_Color instead with the Current Color magic variable in the empty shortcut’s .plist file.

Posted this on reddit too Receiving json data from an online form into Pushcut Now this is going to sound counterproductive because I have this scenario working perfectly using Zapier, however for the advancement of my knowledge I just want to see if I can cut out the middle man. So I have a Cognito booking form on my website that can output the form data as json to an endpoint url. I have tested this with webhook.site and entering a unique url in the endpoint url box on Cognito and I get the json as expected. What url would I need to put into the endpoint box for it to send the data to a Pushcut? Any help greatly appreciated
Avatar
supermamon 0530YYYY-070804
use the URL that pushcut provided

07:10
be sure that the payload is in this format too
{ "title": "notification title", "text": "some message", "input": { "field1": "value 1", "field2": "value 2", "field3": "value 3" } }
07:11
the input key should of course be the data from your form

I have a decent update idea for Glyphy GIF, but my only question I have currently would be if it’s possible to exclude dictionary keys or values from a repeat with each action?

I want to make it possible to where users could see the list of only dictionary keys in this dictionary I’ve shown and be able to select which colors to use and which to not.

If you want to exclude certain keys, what about using Filter Files on the keys, and then get the value for each remaining key?
Avatar
G30 0530YYYY-091630
Not sure why my way above isn’t working tbh.
Avatar
FifiTheBulldog 0530YYYY-091728
I think it’s because there are multiple keys to get the value for and it’s treating the array of selected items as one string.

I thought so too. But even this isn’t working:

at first look, the default config you're saving is different from the one you expect when the file already exists. if the file exists, you're expecting it to have a metadata key. but you don't have that key when the config file is first created (edited)

@C0d3N3rd you can do it but it's complicated because you have to download the content first. Are you wanting to do this in just a single video or multiple? JAYD has this feature built in By the way and playlist support

You may have to use de/encode b64

Use get content then encode with b64 to save it and then decode, encode media and play it

@C0d3N3rd if it is just one video, then you can likely come up with something, but for multiple videos I'd recommend utilizing a playlist and send it to JAYD. JAYD is fast and easy to use to get the audio or video tbh. There are others too like YouTube++ or y2mate downloader in the sub https://routinehub.co/shortcut/4088 (edited)

It won't work... because youtube ciphers the video content URL so you have to decipher the cipher and attach it it the source URL properly. This is the reason so many youtube downloader sites use the ytDownloader code

The only way around that is using an external service to download just the audio then play it, or using one of othe many downloaders to download the audio, then play it... but either way, you have to download the file first

@Burrito, the JSON downloads quickly enough that you probably don’t need to load it only once.

So what happens when your choose from list action gets fired?
Avatar
Macintosh512k 0602YYYY-162038
It basically ends the shortcut because the user is supposed to select a source, it gets the url value from the file and then uses get contents of url

That screen real estate is like a minimalists dream, what do you have below the repeat results in the text action? And what is below the choose from list action? You should try the tailor app to stitch screens together for a long screenshot

@alombi Thus the Run Shortcut method, so that it doesn’t continue looping if the condition is no longer met.

@alombi leave the false part of the if statement blank in the shortcut. It should work then.

@FifiTheBulldog I’m interested in seeing how you would do it. I took a quick look and concluded that getting the dictionary and correct dot notation was too much work for me given that I am grabbing the value in one step. (edited)

@alombi perhaps share the shortcut and we can show you how to do it if you don’t want to do it with a shortcut call.

Interesting idea. However, I don’t know if there’s a way to do this without opening Safari, which Apple thankfully cut out of the process as it stands right now. Whether it would show the “Open in Shortcuts” prompt, I don’t know.

My idea is you pick the image you want to associate with the shortcut, select the shortcut and shortcuts resizes the image adds it as an icon then creates the home screen link/icon

Hi! I don’t have iPad. Someone can confirm on iPad “vibration” command let crash shortcut app?
Avatar
Robric18 0610YYYY-153129
I believe it just skips the vibrate command.

Never use the vibration action if you want your shortcuts to work on an iPad.
Avatar
Robric18 0610YYYY-153233
@ROP 🌈 is right. It stops the shortcut.
15:33
Workaround is to check the type of device being used and only use the vibrate action if it is not an iPad.

zachary7829 0611YYYY-005816
Oh, no sorry. Basically I was thinking that you could use one that fails to get a list of shortcuts which would store the .shortcut files in tmp, but that probably won’t work if doing a backup (edited)
Avatar
Deleted User 0611YYYY-005852
so, run a shortcut that tries to get a list?
00:58
i can do that
Avatar
zachary7829 0611YYYY-005927
But the shortcuts are deleted from tmp like 3 minutes after the shortcut is ran
00:59
So it’s not going to be reliable for the backup
00:59
But if you needed to, you actually may be able to backup, then restore the backup you made
01:00
Even though it’s bugged it just may be some issue with shortcuts or iOS itself

You might try deleting the app, wait a few minutes, turn the device off, then then it back on and reinstall the app, and you could try the same technique with offloading too. It's a pain when this happens. I feel for you. As I had to restore my phone from backup before like I said earlier. I had just made a ton of changes to a shortcut too so I didn't want to lose all that progress

@alombi This is the shortcut I’ve been using for a while. It retrieves the icon then resizes it for use in a menu but it copied the icon to the clipboard at full size first. If you want to use it without the resize you can just delete those steps. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/ea7b2466014948f88c3de1db5047aaa2

@alombi This is the shortcut I’ve been using for a while. It retrieves the icon then resizes it for use in a menu but it copied the icon to the clipboard at full size first. If you want to use it without the resize you can just delete those steps. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/ea7b2466014948f88c3de1db5047aaa2

@alombi 😂 got you now. If you want to be able to select a specific shortcut’s icon you can just use: get my shortcuts -> puck from list -> get images from input -> save (I don’t k is if that’s what the others have suggested). But if you want to choose your own icon I highly recommend my newest shortcut which started life with its purpose being to let you pick and save shortcut icons as png files: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/1199 (edited)

I need the chosen item to be resized to 1024x when saving the generated image or GIF to the photo gallery.

The chosen item would be the color/s chosen from the vCard menu that should have their icons as 123px

Hopefully that makes sense.

Then you’ll need to have the vCard refer to the original images, not actually contain them.

@ROP 🌈 (or anyone else), I’m looking for help with this shortcut. It tries to open a webpage and then immediately open a shortcut. I have been playing around with 3 different ways to do it. None of which work right. If I link to the first html text box in the set name action it opens the shortcut but asks for permission. If I link to the second html text box it opens a webpage where you can press an image to open the shortcut. If I link to the third html text box it should open the shortcut in a “pop up box” but really just open the shortcut. But it doesn’t work. Can you (or anyone else) help me figure out how to do this right? https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/705dac1666524152b50c21417b279d75

ROP 🌈 0615YYYY-163941
Well, one version works basically as desired, there is only the problem that you have to confirm that the link opens in the Shortcuts app. And exactly this cannot be prevented afaik. This is a security mechanism of iOS. If I test it locally from a text editor (and in Safari), it works without the alert. For the textbox, which doesn't work at all, the JavaScript is not the right choice. Here's also a screen recording of the example, but that only works if I execute the code locally and not within a shortcut. Either way you have to confirm it. @Robric18 (edited)

Avatar
ROP 🌈 0615YYYY-171929
I think you've tried everything possible. I've also tested another way, but either way, it won't work without confirmation. And so I don't think there's any way to avoid the pop up. Like said, I think it's an iOS Safari security mechanism and there's no way around that. Sorry. 😐

I have to wonder, though: since shortcuts added to the home screen using the normal way don’t need to show that prompt, is there any way, any way at all, to add a shortcuts:// bookmark directly to the home screen with a shortcut?

Robric18 0615YYYY-184103
Hmm. Yeah the actual use case I wanted was to enable someone to make a bookmarked page saved to the desktop with a custom icon that would open the shortcut thereby mirroring the default add to homepage functionality but without needing to do it through editing the shortcut after it was created. I was hoping to integrate it into a shortcut so you would actually create the desktop link with a chosen image in shortcuts and then create the custom shortcut that the link links to. Basically do all the creation in shortcuts as you are creating the shortcut and not have to add to home screen later. but no such luck apparently. (edited)

@Robric18 I almost feel bad because Shortcuts Icon Downloader is starting too look and feel a bit too much like Icon2MenuTool+. 😟
@G30, Icons2MenuTool+’s menu creation scheme allows you to append new menu items below the existing one you are creating. I think it does what you are trying to do. Check that process out (feel free to DM if you have questions or it’s not exactly what you had in mind).

Robric18 0624YYYY-193511
@ZXXII (Shazam++/Quick Shazam), I can help explain why @G30 wants that ability. He wants to make it possible to make vcard menus from the shortcut (similar to what I do in icons2menu tool - https://routinehub.co/shortcut/1199). By having the ability to change the glyph after selecting, you can create a menu item then Change the glyph, create another menu item, etc. saves some steps. Also, sometimes you might decide after seeing the glyph that you don’t like it so much and want a different one.

I see that a lot of people want the ability to view folders inside of folders. So, I would like to share with you my method that allows you to do just that! (Even works with empty folders!) Here it is: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/7d7ddd573b9b4e40b7e3d26f7ec0fb52 And here’s an image of it in action: https://i.imgur.com/UZsdBdz.png

@eaic do you want find/check or simply deleting? For second one you can just use “dictionary” that CAN’T have same keys. The first same key overwrites the last.. (edited)

Yes-ish
16:32
Use the iCloud API to get the .shortcut file
16:32
Then set it to plist
16:32
And go down to the bottom and find a key called “WFWorkflowMinimumClientVersion” or something similar
16:32
And change that to 400/411
16:33
Then reset it to .shortcut
16:33
Then import!

I think the request was to get it from the RH API (since the names are sometimes different), but for some things that works.

Robric18 0630YYYY-235114
This shortcut pulls the name if given the RH ID. You could use the method with the api pull. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/86bea04eca65487baf46b91550d27ac8 (sorry it’s so rough, wasn’t intended for distribution)

@electricmilk (TranslateKit) Just use this easy method :
- Get content of Url (routinehub.co/shortcut/ID) - Create Html from RTF (Content of Url) - Match text (in html from rtf)

For match text, juste copy/paste this text :

You can get shortcut names from the API

List User's Shortcuts GET 'api/v1/<api_key>/shortcuts' Simply retrieves a list of the user's shortcuts with their IDs and whether it's published or not.

I ended up just going with getting the iCloud URL from the RoutineHub API and using the iCloud api records for the URL to get the name of the shortcut

That’s true. Regarding your second point, I suppose it depends which title is more important for you to have.

Avatar
FifiTheBulldog 0716YYYY-083311
Sure! Use “get component of URL” to get the domain, check to see if it’s from YouTube, and then “get component of URL” again to get the value for “v” in the query. For youtu.be links, you may want to use “Expand URL” and use the expanded URL as the thing to check instead of the original URL.

09:09
1. If URL is YouTube extract ID 2. If URL is video create call with video_ids= , for channels channel_ids= 3. If API returns null open Youtube. 4. Otherwise open page lbry.tv/@outputfromapi (example: lbry.tv/@sweaty-duo-win-in-apex-legends-season-3#c7e5a2baa07d5258dc6fb9de819187ad33ed3eec)

and example if API returns correct thing

Will it always return only the type you specified?

If video is also on lbry.tv it will ruturn value , otherwise it will return null

The first is not possible, the second definitely is possible. The shortcut I sent you accepts URLs from the share sheet.

@Mike (UpdateKit API, RoutinePub) it’s me again. Since we last chatted about the issues I was having with updateKit I don’t know if I had run it. Today however, I ran a shortcut with it and UK asked me to update. So I did. Now every time I run the shortcut, UK sends me to the language selection screen from within my own shortcut. I’ve run the shortcut several times and this keeps happening despite the configuration file existing. I’m not sure what’s going wrong but it’s something. Any thoughts?

@Robric18 UpdateKit works fine when RoutinePub calls it. Maybe it’s a minor error in the use?
Avatar
Robric18 0723YYYY-190817
This is my updateKit dictionary { "Shortcut Name":"Name That Tune", "Author":"Robric18", "Current Version":"1.2", "RoutineHub ID":"893", "UpdateKit":"UpdateKit" } Even after deleting my configuration file I’m still getting sent back to that menu from my shortcut. Not sure why.

You have to tap the link, then tap get shortcut then in the screen when you're able to add the shortcut, you can tap the three dots in the upper right and then hit stop sharing. But if you deleted the link and don't have a copy of it anymore, then there isn't much else you can do. But at least the link is gone from anywhere it was posted

@Deleted User I’ve noticed some weird behavior with link opening recently. If you put the changed url into a url action then try to open from there it seems to work.

i used the other one and i implemented it in 2.3.5
09:25
should i add auto update?
09:25
or keep it manual like now?
Avatar
Robric18 0803YYYY-092707
Do you mean auto check for update or automatically open the update link if there is an update? I would always give the user the choice whether to update or not and not break the shortcut if they choose not to update.
Avatar
Deleted User 0803YYYY-092736
no just notify the user that there is an update when runninng
09:28
so instead of going straight to the menu, it would check for updates first and notify the user
09:28
and if they want to update, they have to go to the update menu
09:29
here we go, 100 actions!

Feeling dumb today. I’m trying to make a nested dictionary value in shortcuts. Who can help? I want a dictionary that looks like this: {“Player 1”:{“Name”:”rob”,”values”:”1,2,3,4”}, {“Player 2”:{“Name”:”ric”,”values”:”5,6,7,8”}} Is there a way to set those nested values with dictionaries? I can get Name or Values but not both.
13:52
To be clear, I’m trying to do it with set dictionary value actions and set variable.
Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0809YYYY-135444
Yes but it's a pain. You have to get the dictionary as a sub dictionary then get that sub dictionaries value and then work backwards to set the value in the sub dictionary, then set dictionary value for the sub dictionary in the main dictionary. It's a mess. But there is an easier way with JS https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/ef208a728c524af4adbf20e4ee0ec52d

I honestly have no idea what's making that error, maybe check if your code is correct, reboot your phone, and if it's still malfunctioning send the shortcut here
11:19
we can't try to figure out the issue without seeing the actual code of the shortcut by the way, i'm just stating common fixes for issues with the shortcuts app.

@Macintosh512k you could try using bootstrap or half moon or something and see if it is faster. And I should have clarified html will be slower but look nicer (imo) and I personally will almost always opt for slower but better looking
11:10
If you want it fast you could try the overlay or combine like in the text in image example in the shortcuts gallery
11:11
Also if your pulling in anything via cdn you can download the min version and put it in a text box or dictionary and load it that way.
11:12
Dictionary will effect the loading speed of the edit cite of your shortcut less as it’s “hidden” from the ui at first
11:13
And you can crash shortcuts with a big enough text box lol I have a shortcut that does it every time if I try to edit the text in the text box

My experience thus far is that I think the update has updated all the versions to ios14 versions of the shortcut. So there are some changes under the hood but nothing that affects operation. I’ve just been keeping the newer (ios14) version and nothing has broken from doing that so far.

I would suggest just deleting the app and turning off your iCloud for it then turning it on and re downloading the shortcuts app. That’s not really a iOS 14 upgrade thing as much as it’s a sign of a corrupted database

I have been on ios14 since the first dev beta and not had that happen once if that helps at all

So basically Siri can run a shortcut just by saying it’s name however if it already doing something using that word it won’t
09:25
So you have Two options: 1) Say Run before the Shortcut name (Always works) 2) Make the name more unique or a phrase like “Open bus ticket” (edited)
09:26
went well before
@Deleted User I’m guessing it’s because they updated Siri (20x more facts and stuff)

Doesn’t seem to work for streaming video. I can display a webpage and even get the video to appear. But I can’t get it to play unless I download it separately and play it directly from the download. My preference would be to be able to play the video inline. If you know how to make that work in quick look, that would be great.

FifiTheBulldog 0927YYYY-014852
Here's what I think is happening: Quick Look can't request web content. When there's an embedded image or script loaded from another source, that is downloaded while the page is being converted into rich text and injected directly into the page. However, when you have a video, the whole thing can't load at once. So it has to load while the page is open. Problem is, Quick Look can't make web requests, so the video doesn't download. Thus, no video playing in a webpage in Quick Look. I've tried both the iframe and video tags for putting a pre-downloaded video into the page, and nothing plays.

You can add a menu with 2 options, one that sends the message, and one that runs again the shortcut

So it will make another draw

@Robric18 In practice RSA should not be used to directly encrypt messages. The usual is to encrypt a symmetric key (e.g. AES) with RSA, and then encrypt the message with the symmetric key. But if you want to see a direct RSA example, check http://doctrina.org/How-RSA-Works-With-Examples.html#a-real-world-example

@atnbueno thanks. I was mostly following along (helped by my research earlier this summer) until I got to where he actually did the example. Then he said “The first thing that must be done is to convert the message into a numeric format. Each letter is represented by an ascii character, therefore it can be accomplished quite easily... How I will do it here is to convert the string to a bit array, and then the bit array to a large number.” And that’s where I got lost. He included the GitHub link but it confused me. I think that has often been one of my 3 stumbling blocks. The others being understanding where letters come into the mix in the encrypted messages and how to tell what’s the key vs the encrypted message.
05:41
For further clarity, is it correct that the encryption mathematics are done on the entire coded message at once rather than letter by letter? ( I also believe that the messages are broken up into smaller packets if too long) (edited)

@Robric18 Correct. IIRC in RSA the bit sequence is a single base2 (binary) number (hence all the mathematical examples).
12:05
In symmetric cryptography (e.g. AES, not RSA) there are block cyphers and stream cyphers. The first are the ones that "break" the data in "packets" (blocks). (edited)

Has anyone tried making a utility to flatten shortcuts and their dependencies?
23:35
Or is that just not possible now for shortcuts to make shortcuts now with the newer versions of iOS. I noticed that DependKit and Direct Download RH both don't work anymore (edited)
Avatar
FifiTheBulldog 1009YYYY-002720
It’s still possible to have one shortcut edit another. It’s just so ridiculously complicated to do something like you describe, that nobody goes through the trouble of making it.
00:27
In any case, most dependency-flattening can be done by making a custom embedded version of a shortcut. That’s far better than attempting to embed the whole thing.
00:28
Once you do that, there are numerous tools to embed one shortcut in another.

@Macintosh512k To find the index of the first {id:"no"} @nyuszika7h's code should work perfectly. It could also be done like this:
array.map(x => x.id == 'yes').indexOf(true) // -1 if not found
And just for completeness, if you want to find the indexes of all the occurrences of {id:"no"} you can do this:
array.map((x, i) => (x.id == 'yes') ? i : null).filter(i => i != null) // empty list if not found

Has anyone figured out what makes automations show the "Tap to respond" notification? I have two versions of my shortcut, new one using Database by @electricmilk (TranslateKit) , and old one using my own less elegant, homerolled json-based key-value store, using these helper shortcuts I found on /r/shortcuts. My less elegant original shortcut doesn't prompt Tap to respond but my new one, using Database, won't execute without me tapping Tap to respond
15:48
So in both cases, I'm using "untrusted shortcuts" at some level, just differing levels
15:50
Maybe if I wrap Database in my own shortcut, vs using Database directly, it'll not go down the dependency tree to see if I'm running any untrusted shortcuts
15:52
Rip, tried wrapping the database example app into my own shortcut, two levels, deep, then call that wrapper from an automation, and it didn't stop it from asking me to Tap to respond (edited)

@PVNDV88 You will have to be WAY more specific about which shortcuts you downloaded. Messing up your phone is not standard behavior. If you got hacked, then either you stumbled upon a shortcut that somehow escaped the attention of the mods, or you got hacked by another route that was definitely not Shortcuts but coincided with the timing of you trying out Shortcuts.

Also, if you downloaded shortcuts that are intended to install tweaks and/or jailbreak your device, and you happened to select malicious tweaks to install, that's not the fault of Shortcuts.

PVNDV88 1009YYYY-220605

If you couldn't get them to run, then my first guess is that you didn't complete the process of installing them.
22:07
And again, you will have to be much more specific. There are thousands of shortcuts on RoutineHub, sometimes hundreds that do the same thing. (edited)

I went to the top hundred downloaded ran through the whole trusting process and the only two that worked or spam messages eg: send 100s of messages of the same word or same word letter by letter hundreds of times. And a love message reminding my wife of how much I still love her while I’m hauling ass at work😁
22:14
Then I some how wanted to use both at the same time while taking a little of the exaggeration of the hundred words and combining it with the midday messaging and kind of make a display is like a code make it look like I'm trying to hack her phone at the same time well displaying a cute message but I couldn't figure out how to do that so......
22:15
Wanted to call it the love hack and somehow make it pop up a picture of us two while it ends as if the scripture taking over her phone was just to display some love

@Macintosh512k Do you mean download the HTML of a page and then run JavaScript inside the downloaded page?
17:24
If so, you would need the currently broken "Show Webpage" action. I don't know if "Quick Look" would work. But as long as it's only to show the modified page (no output possible from any of those two actions), you just have to inject your JavaScript in the appropriated place of the HTML code.

Is possible to modify a shortcut with another shortcut?
16:12
For example in shortcut 1 have a menu to say if I want shortcut 2 to say “hello” or to say “bye”. So I can modify the shortcut 2 without shortcut 2 asking me all the time to say “hello” or “bye”.

@Eudan You can run a shortcut with different inputs from another shortcut (see the "Input" field in the "Run Shortcut" action)

It's mostly this private framework: http://iphonedevwiki.net/index.php?title=Calculate.framework

Can I detect which app I was using before executing a shortcut? (To open it after the shortcut ends)

In certain cases maybe. But it depends on the input to the shortcut. But there isn't a sure fire way to know

I think a better description would be that some apps can tell shortcuts what they are when they call shortcuts (rather than that you can detect which shortcut was running). (edited)

This shortcut almost means nothing without the statistics that shows the user.

And voice commanding shortcut is the best part of it. So if it don't work, probably most of users don't want it too

Did you save the output of the set dictionary value action? Or save the original dictionary? The set dictionary value action doesn't modify the original dictionary itself. It just creates a new dictionary containing the original with the modifications

if you have an embed updater theres no need to add CFU/SFU/etc support (edited)
Avatar
Robric18 1107YYYY-183620
@mudkip the external mass updater support was so that anyone who used an external mass updater would get a notification to update their version of the shortcut when an update occurred regardless of which mass updater they use. It’s a shortcut that people likely don’t use that often so it makes sense to have update notifications pushed by a mass updater. The actual shortcut has a separate embedded updater.

PSA: many (if not most) people reading this discord won’t know what shortcut you are referring to if you just reference it by an acronym. @zachary7829, I presume you are referencing Ultra Cute Fast Updater and Super Fast Updater support being in Quick Update: Internet Explorer edition. I hate be the one to tell you, Internet Explorer is so 2010. (edited)

Not possible. Shortcuts execute from top to bottom, and interface actions, like most, must finish running before the next action begins.

@atnbueno I got a way to find url schemes that needs ipa file.. and for parler I can’t get anywhere.. https://amerhukic.com/finding-the-custom-url-scheme-of-an-ios-app
Finding the custom URL scheme of an iOS app
I was recently hired to find out if an app has a custom URL scheme. Using the URL scheme the developer would be able to implement deep linking and launch that app from his own app. The process of finding the URL scheme was quite simple.

daidardi 1116YYYY-145441
@atnbueno @mvan231 (ShortCasts) @FifiTheBulldog However now I’m sure that’s not the right way to find it. I tested with Twitter App and the BundleID isn’t the same of url scheme.. As explained in previous link it needs to get Info.plist file from .ipa

Robric18 1122YYYY-082300
It’s actually more like making an automatic transmission with a gear shift to go from park to drive. When driving an automatic transmission car you can’t just hop in and start driving. You need to put it into the drive gear first so that the car “knows” to start driving. Same thing with automations, you need to “put it in gear” by pressing the notification (except for the ones that can run without notifications)

By that, I just meant storing plain text in a json file and not a dictionary.

🤔 but JSON == Dictionary though (edited)

or do you mean storing a set of text in JSON format, in a text action, instead of in a dictionary action? (edited)

Auto scroll relies on executing JavaScript on an HTML page.

A PDF attachment is not an HTML page.

Has anyone here a Mac, knows quite a bit of JavaScript and wants to help me improve my CopyPaste Actions shortcut? The issue I'm having is that the webpage that is opened by the shortcut doesn't close itself. The call to window.close() doesn't do anything, regardless of how I invoke it (automatically after other async scripts have finished, on button click with or without setTimeout). I don't have a Mac, otherwise I would do it myself. So if you want to help me out, please connect your iDevice to the Mac and debug the website on the device with Safari on your Mac. The website should invoke the window.close method after 2 seconds when you tap on the Open Shortcuts button after e.g. selecting a shortcut. Does it write something to the console? You can also use this shortcut: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/362bfdd8ec3d42539f19653223add9aa I've added 3 buttons on the top with different methods to invoke the closing, but no button closes the page for me. There it should also log a message to the console right before closing the page. Thank you!

You might want to reach out to @nyuszika7h about that. Looks like you're not just trying to install an app, you're trying to add one to icon Themer, right?

nyuszika7h 1227YYYY-075716
yeah gonna need to be a bit more specific about what you tried, it could be a bad internet connection since it seems to work fine for me and most people

as long as you haven't copied anything else to the clipboard yet, you can use the "restore unfinished profile" option to retry the installation @Lucascataudo

According to Jayson, the one dictionary in packages.json is at index 0. I converted it to a text file and now Shortcuts can open it , but last time I tried using a json written by shortcuts, Papercuts wouldn’t accept it.

so you mean the Shortcuts app crashes? that may happen occasionally but it shouldn't happen every time... you should be able to retry using the "Restore unfinished profile" option when you run the shortcut again, but if it keeps happening I would try reinstalling the Shortcuts app or rebooting your device

atnbueno 0101YYYY-083314
I'm not sure what you're asking. That idea behind that file is to get the ISO 639-1 language code and use it as a key to get the localized names.
08:39
If I wanted to do a multilingual shortcut, and include those glyph names in the localization, I would probably use the same idea but with an extra level: Instead of
{ ... "en": { "59452": "Car", ... }, "es": { "59452": "Coche", ...
I would do
{ ... "en": { "glyph": { "59452": "Car", ... }, "msg": { "SALUTATION": "Good morning!", ... } }, "es": { "glyphs": { "59452": "Coche", ... }, "msg": { "SALUTATION": "¡Buenos días!", ... }

Ah, ok. In that case you don't need the DOCTYPE nor the <br>, but you will need to specify the encoding (either there or in the data: URI). I prefer a dictionary action because I think it's easier to understand by regular users. See this for an example: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/7970/ But now that I think about it, you can have a dictionary action and do the language selection via JavaScript at the same time 😁 (edited)

the br is still needed. When you omit the body and head tags, every tag up to the first tag not allowed will be put in the head. script tags can be in the head, but <br>s can't. If you run a script that references document.body (as mine did) in the head, it will fail because the body hasn't loaded yet. the <br> is just a short way to push the script into the body

I would solve that by using document.write instead of document.body 😁 See the shortcut linked above for an example. (edited)

document.write will interpret text as HTML, which i avoided by appending a text node to the body.

right but if you use document.write it could do finicky things if you have any <>& in your input, and could be a potential XSS vector if you handle user input

document.body.append(document.createTextNode()) avoids that

What I want the shortcut to do is this: Grab all the shortcuts in your shortcuts library and repeat with all, match text to get the shortcut glyph, match with all shortcut glyph number values to get the name, and list all the shortcut icon glyph names with a number beside the names stating the amount of shortcuts you have in your gallery with that specific icon glyph. The list of icons glyph names should obviously be deduplicated as well.

Well for this shortcut as of now specifically, I’d like a quick look of all the shortcuts icon glyph names from shortcuts I have installed in my shortcuts library. Beside all the shortcut icon glyph names should be a number listing how many of the shortcuts in your library uses that icon glyph. So there shouldn’t be any duplicated glyph names and would be filtered out somehow as well.

No worries. I built mine before you sent yours haha but it flows pretty similar. Getting the right output is the tricky part. I got it using JS in the shortcut but it's a tad slow because of the way JS has to run in the shortcut. I'll take another try at it again. The method rob came up with works great for the color portion

Also, you could use
(?<=\<key\>WFWorkflowIconStartColor\<\/key\>\n\t\t\<integer\>)[\S\n\t]*?(?=\<\/integer\>)
to match the color.

Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0111YYYY-211024
I didn't include the option to have hex value or decimal value but it's doable for sure. My Hex Dec Converter shortcut could be easily incorporated here to get the hex color. But getting the actual color name I think could be possible too. Would just take another dictionary that includes the possible color numbers from shortcuts and then name the colors in the dictionary. I do wonder now though, can we set custom hex colors for shortcuts by modifying the Plist and then building the shortcut?
Avatar
G30 0111YYYY-211120
Sadly, no you can not set custom hex colors for shortcuts and building it. The color value will default itself either to 0 or 255 which is essentially one of the Gray colors.

I found the true reason on why I started building this shortcut and knew there was a reason for it hidden in the back of my mind.
23:10
Okay, the reason being would to also categorize the output into the 3 shortcut glyph icon categories.
23:12
Example in short form:
Objects Category: Hammer & Wrench = 3 - Tinycut Builder - vCard Menu Creator - Shortcut Launcher Creator People Category: People Standing = 1 - Cool Shortcut Symbols Category: Shortcut Icon = 3 - s1 - s2 - Shortcut 3
 (edited)
23:12
It’s a small example but that’s the format I’d like to see you know?
23:16
It basically will then utilize some of the same structural code that some of my other shortcut modification shortcuts use.
23:18
Maybe afterwards, formatting layout could be touched up. But right now, this is all just the “drafting” stages I’d say for a new project. 🤷🏽‍♂️

One major issue I see is that you are trying to do your text replace actions on the glyph number instead of the color number
04:46
This is why I suggest adding the alt color codes with their respective names to the dictionary. It'll make your life a lot easier specially if you do as I said before and as I did in my version, to create a dictionary action using the dictionary action builder shortcut. It makes the shortcut much cleaner when viewing in the edit view. But that can be ironed out later. For now I suggest adding the alt color codes directly to your current JSON item https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/7f7d54422b5a4922bd85c736f0219f79 (edited)

mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0113YYYY-050323
Definitely not. Ten thousand keys can have the same value if you want. The thing that would cause problems is if you had it the other way around, if there were multiple keys that were the same. The word dictionary describes it best I guess. You wouldn't want to have two of the same word defined completely differently, right? But two different words can have the same or similar definitions and it's totally understandable 🙂

This is clearly Pink. 😝 But to differentiate, I’d say to look at the colors in which the alternate color codes for have already been found, and then look at the ones that haven’t. Process of elimination (if you aren’t colorblind at least).

btw, IIRC I found some hacky way of detecting "Increase Contrast" in a shortcut before, using CSS and JavaScript (edited)

Whatever it is, maybe we could all work together on getting to the bottom of it. The question would be “Why is there alternate color values for Shortcut Icons in iOS 14?”… or something along the lines of that.

True! Almost all of the colors changed in iOS 14 to some extent

I know previous iOS versions (12/13) also had alternate color codes for shortcut icon colors, but they were like Hex values or something. (edited)

well, it's not 100% reliable - you have to force close and restart Shortcuts after changing the option for it to detect it
05:25
the same thing happens with websites in Safari that use -apple-system colors, while it adapts to light/dark mode immediately
05:25
so this may be a bug, I reported it via the Feedback Assistant a while ago, maybe they'll fix it

Yes, indeed it would be just to get more information on shortcuts in your library. I like creating shortcuts that utilize what the shortcuts team has built for us, and to develop further based on that with what’s given.
12:46
Specifically in the shortcuts criteria though. I like to modify Plist files and dive into the capabilities of what’s possible with them.

Maybe a smaller-scale example can help? - If we have 4 bits we have 16 combinations: 0000, 0001, 0010, 0011, ..., 1100, 1101, 1110, 1111 - If we want to represent only positive numbers (a.k.a. "unsigned integers") we can represent the numbers 0, 1, 2, 3, ...,12, 13 14, 15 - If we want to represent positive and negative numbers (a.k.a. "signed integers") we can represent the numbers -8, -7, -6, -5, ..., 4, 5, 6, 7 - In both cases the code 0101 represents number 5 (this happens with 0, 1, ..., 6, 7) - But the code 1001 can represent either 9 or -7 (and 1101 is either 13 or -3) - When there's ambiguity, the sum of both numbers represented by a code will be always 16 (which is 2^4 because the 4 bits) (edited)

Double checked. That’s definitely a hidden icon glyph not selectable in iOS 14.

I implemented a check in the shortcut that will show the plist file of a shortcut that doesn’t match with any of the color code values or glyph values. No results, meaning nothing should be missing or is messing up. Not sure why I’m still just having colors names without a shortcut name in front of them.

https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/a7b68a32bee34c89b8bb38ff717b2316 @atnbueno I recommended for you to check out this shortcut. It contains a bunch of alternate glyph codes I’ve added in based on my own findings (Along with all of the original glyph codes mixed in). Not all of the alternate glyph codes are there as far as I know. I’ve found up to 4 glyph codes for Document Filled or either Document Outline alone. The JSON is organized by numerical order via key value. I’ve also included a separate text action with both color codes for all 15 shortcut icon colors. (edited)

https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/a7b68a32bee34c89b8bb38ff717b2316 @atnbueno I recommended for you to check out this shortcut. It contains a bunch of alternate glyph codes I’ve added in based on my own findings (Along with all of the original glyph codes mixed in). Not all of the alternate glyph codes are there as far as I know. I’ve found up to 4 glyph codes for Document Filled or either Document Outline alone. The JSON is organized by numerical order via key value. I’ve also included a separate text action with both color codes for all 15 shortcut icon colors. (edited)
atnbueno 0114YYYY-041036
Yeah, I saw those numbers in the different iOS/Shortcuts versions. They've changed the code of some glyphs more than once

This is a visual comparison between the glyphs in iOS 12/13/14 (in numerical order) As you can see 7 glyphs "dissapeared" from iOS 12 to 13 (edited)

04:19
And this is the same comparison but with the codes (green means old value still valid but not selectable nowadays, yellow means changes in iOS 14 between September and October) (edited)

Green values will be useful to patch up the remaining values I couldn’t manually grab last night. Thank you again @atnbueno for your documentation! 😄

G30 0114YYYY-090220
Meanwhile, at max your list shows 339 glyph code entries for iOS 14 @atnbueno. Maybe I have some codes in my shortcut that aren’t valid? I’m not sure because I didn’t test 100% of all the alternate codes I’ve added in the dictionaries to be sure they’d return an icon. (edited)

There is no file. For the image above I’ve crossed your JSON with my Excel. But the person who got the glyphs was @ActuallyZach | Jellycuts. I just played with the images he provided.

The glyphs should be complete up to iOS 14 b3

I don’t feel good about my glyphs dictionary, but I also do feel like it’s basically the complete shortcuts glyph set for iOS 14.x.x along with it’s valid hidden glyph codes too.
10:29
And if I really wanted to do so, I could include negative values for all the glyph codes I have as well to foolproof the shortcut. 🤣

New ones, but not in a shortcut I’ve linked yet. Well there are a few new ones there, but I’m still working on finishing. Currently at 392 glyph values (with no negative glyph values included)!

I still have a lot to go through honestly, but the entire dictionary in one of the shortcuts I’m working on + the shortcut with just the dictionaries will at least be sorted via numerical order for the keys in the JSON. (edited)

G30 0114YYYY-150607
I was thinking possibly 2 values per shortcut icon which would mean 660+ values. But then again, iOS 14 shortcut glyphs have new values that never would have shown icons on iOS 12/13. So it’s probably 2 for every glyph with the exception for iOS 14 shortcut icon glyphs.
Avatar
ActuallyZach | Jellycuts 0114YYYY-150623
Why 2?

G30 0114YYYY-150625
But also, I’ve found more than 2+ values for certain glyphs. So I don’t even know.

I think people’s documentation of shortcut glyphs are a bit outdated. I believe the select few of us that has been chatting here the past few days can change that and find out EVERY possible icon glyph value available to use that’ll show an icon in iOS 14. No matter if it’s multiple values for glyphs or not. 👌🏽 (edited)

If you want to get more complete than just the alternate glyph codes I am finding, then you can also use the negative decimal values for glyphs as well: https://www.reddit.com/r/shortcuts/comments/kwd0rc/need_contributors_i_need_help_to_find_alternate/gj7berm/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3

Subtract 4294967296 from every glyph code number to get its negative number glyph code. (edited)
15:41
You won’t ever see a negative value used in a shortcut’s plist file for the shortcut icon glyph unless it happens to be many of shortcuts from the Shortcuts Gallery or if you intentionally edit a shortcut’s plist file to adjust the value to a negative value.

I added all the remaining keys that I didn’t have from there into the JSON for the dictionary I’m still building. I’ll still have to find the name for all the values I didn’t have added already though. (edited)

https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/058f36fc31ac4908bf59d298b9df596b All values are named except for a few in which I have ? for. I’m not sure what some specific ones would be called since they’re hidden from selection in a shortcut’s settings.

Laptop, Chain Link, People Two Overlapping, Chat Bubble, Video Symbol, Music Note, Game Controller, Mountain Picture, Cloud, Briefcase, Globe, Magnifying Glass, Pencil, and Paintbrush seemed to have the most when I was searching for names to fill in for the values. (edited)

Are you getting those names with the "show names continuously" Voice Control command?

G30 0116YYYY-063238
I was getting them based on what I already had named. Names would be from the Show Names Voice Control command I believe, but I don’t think 100% of them are from it as I’ve had to rename a few myself.

Here’s a quick shortcut I threw together that’ll show you all the icons hidden in iOS 14 selection of glyphs https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/fd4a7d58a0de4d49b6c93b1fac850ff7

My CSV with all the languages is from the source of Voice Control. The only changes I made was to mark repeated names with "(2)".
Avatar
G30 0116YYYY-063455
I marked repeated names with Alt. But if there was more than 3 glyphs with the same name, I’d go on to add Alt 1, Alt 2, etc to the name.

Oh wait well no not like that

From a multilingual POV a language-dependant prefix like "Alt" is not a good idea

And from a documentation POV I would distinguish between values that are currently choosable from those that don't, either because they are from old iOS version, or of unknown origin.

I'm identifying the duplicates now in the new large glyph set. BTW, really optimizable (20-30% of original size)

G30 0116YYYY-064302
I can agree with this. I can’t say that I’m really obtaining all of this information for documentation purposes, though I am at the same time. The shortcut I started working on a few days will be to aid in the data on your Siri Shortcuts downloaded in the library. If I get it advanced enough, then it will identify which shortcuts of yours that use an alternate value rather than the original value for both glyphs and color codes. Would also be cool to tell which glyphs are hidden, which are selectable, etc. In general, it’ll be a nice shortcut to have if you want information on your shortcuts, but I warn that it’ll be slow to retrieve the output if you have lots of shortcuts.

Is it possible to pick a location? So like a mini-version of Maps where the user can search a location, click on the map and press “Done” and it get a address output?

mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0116YYYY-105023
Searching a location, sure but to tap on a mini map, not directly in shortcuts. You could use something in HTML probably though

I’ve been wanting to update my shortcut Shortcuts Icon Downloader with code optimizations that could speed up the shortcut load times for vCard menus and other stuff by up to 20x or even more. u/Gluebyte over on Reddit has pretty much told me exactly what I need to do in order to do this, but I still can’t get a grasp on the information he’s told me. I feel like I don’t understand it at all and how to apply it to my shortcut. 😖
15:09
So I’ll attempt to provide all the information I can, and hopefully someone here is able to get me started. (I believe I am better at visual learning rather than being told what to do. If someone can start the code replacement process for me in a part of my shortcut, I think I can finish the rest from what was applied by another).

He pretty much rewrote the previous version of the shortcut and I released what is now the latest version of the shortcut from what he sent to me.

What he pointed out can also be applied in Shortcuts Icon Downloader along with something else…

Which would be something along the lines of this. My point is that I seriously can’t figure out how to do these optimizations all by myself even with the information right there in front of my face. 😦
15:15
If this update were to happen, the actions count in the shortcut I believe would increase. This does not matter to me though. I’d rather have a faster shortcut with more actions than a slower shortcut with less actions. (edited)

G30 0124YYYY-152035
I want to update my shortcut, Shortcuts Icon Editor with code that optimizations that should DRASTICALLY improve the loading times of vCard menus throughout the shortcut. And to be fair, the entire shortcut is based off of vCard menus pretty much. Match Text actions throughout the shortcut can theoretically be replaced with Get Dictionary Value actions and Replace Text actions can also theoretically be replaced by Set Dictionary Value actions in iOS 14 since these actions are a lot faster.

Surly it’s my fault. I don’t get very well English. Less words and closest idea.. 😬 In your example you changed d from 3 to 9 Can you send the menu part of your shortcut for getting what you need, because the example do exactly what I do me too..

I’ve been wanting to update my shortcut Shortcuts Icon Downloader with code optimizations that could speed up the shortcut load times for vCard menus and other stuff by up to 20x or even more. u/Gluebyte over on Reddit has pretty much told me exactly what I need to do in order to do this, but I still can’t get a grasp on the information he’s told me. I feel like I don’t understand it at all and how to apply it to my shortcut. 😖

It's still not entirely clear what you're wanting someone to help with. But tbh you could speed things up even. More and just remove the vCards altogether but that of course takes a lot of the "flair" and appearance out of the shortcut

Clock has a private URL scheme so you have to use a shortcuts x-callback to open it
04:28
Safari only has x-web-search, probably best way to open it is with a data: URL that closes itself immediately - unless you want it to open to a specific URL
04:28
actually - if you're using Pythonista it's possible to open apps by bundle ID

It's not the best solution, but you can create a separate shortcut just for the loop, and use the "exit shortcut" action as a break (unless I'm missing something obvious lol).

Indeed, that would mean the user has to download an extra Shortcut, and as ROP once said: “If the Shortcut requires another Shortcut, I won’t download it”

Is there an option to break a “repeat with each” loop?
_Lumination | nUpdate 1.1.0? 0228YYYY-141550
Once your done with your task in your "repeat with each" loop, you can set a variable to "1" or something and put all your repeat code in a "if [variable] is 1 otherwise [your code]"

Make a shortcut that triggers when the nfc is sensed which triggers the “set playback destination to” action and have that action associated with your speakers (they need to be connected when you setup the action)

I don't think it would make it noticeably faster or slower either way. Unless you're using the get details of contact action, in which case it will add some processing time for using an extra action
05:33
Do you have an example of your vCard items? RegEx could do it but might depending on how many semicolons and such, you have used

BTW, I want to be able to use the images in other parts of my shortcut and make the vcard easier to navigate. Also, I might switch to an image picker or image menu rather than vcard menu (for square images). That’s why I want to extract the images. But if there is a better way to to that, I’m open to other ideas too.

How i can add a „back“ button for my Shortcut to my main menu or something like that?
Avatar
alombi 0315YYYY-132015
You need to write your shortcut in a specific way, using shortcut’s input
13:22
When you navigate between pages, the shortcut runs itself with an input. At the very beginning of the shortcut you put an If that checks the shortcut’s input, and if it’s matching, then make something. If you build your shortcut like this, you will be able to do that

@mvan231 (ShortCasts) thanks for this. It’s a great implementation. Now though I decided to get even more granular and do some research. I discovered that “NW” is the Cardinal direction and the 260 degrees is the degree direction. And there are certain ranges of degree direction which fall in each cardinal direction. I have made a dictionary with the CD as the keys and the DD as the values and another with the reverse. Is there a way to use one of these dictionaries with your shortcut (or some other means) to get the slightly more accurate determination of direction? Here is my revised version: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/4c7bcfcf5c464108b9d19ac7d5d23102

but if it’s not, then it will do the otherwise, which runs the updater

Tap on the “Input” field
01:05
Tap on “Select Magic Variable”
01:05
Tap on “File of Type”
01:06
Now tap on the File of Type variable in the If action
01:06
Tap on “as File” and select “Text” from the menu
01:07
Tap on the “Condition” field of the If action
01:07
Select “is”
01:07
In the “Text” field that appears, type online
01:07
And that should be it

mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0318YYYY-054949
If so, then change the type to something other than text, and change it back to text again. If still doesn't work, put that output in a text action, then use the text action as input to your if statement (edited)

I was trying to make a updater smaller than [Embed-a-Update] it has my RHID in it, and the Version is set back by 0.0.1 I couldn’t get it working, don’t want to use the text because I don’t know how to use it, the logic makes sense but the code doesn’t.

Right. But that's an extra step for the user when you can have them open it directly in shortcuts by getting the shortcut ID from the iCloud url, then put it at the end of shortcuts://shortcuts/

Here is the most compact Updater I’ve been able to make that tells you there is an update and opens it in shortcuts - 8 actions. Can decrease it to 6 if you want to just open any update on the iCloud webpage without alerting the user that is the reason the update is opening. https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/66b8657761984d028a5941438dc2d14f (edited)

https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/3ccffd56ee63460f859be591df739fb9 So the idea behind this shortcut: You've lost your phone under the couch cushions somewhere and you use Hey Siri by saying "Hey Siri! Marco!" and the shortcut responds with my actual voice (in this version) saying "Polo bitch!", and then followed by 1. Flashlight flashing 2. A brief sound clip (via base64 decoding like my voice) 3. Siri blabbing in various different ways. The challenge for me has been determining what will work when the phone is locked. The last version I tested on Beta 5 worked 100%, but on Beta 6.... it just won't give consistent results so. If you could just lock your phone, use "hey siri test marco" to trigger the shortcut and then tell me how far it gets, it would help tremendously. Even just one or two attempts.

I turned down the volume, but it works great! Only issue was that I had to try twice to get it to run while my phone was locked with the screen off. It gave me an “uh oh, something went wrong, please try again.” In all other cases, it worked on the first try. And LMFAO, that’s some poggers stuff to put in a lost phone shortcut! (edited)

iirc you can use the date action to set the day of the week as a number
20:10
so sunday becomes 1, monday 2, etc
20:10
then you can use between 2 and 6 for weekdays
20:11
or if you want to do, say, only mondays & thursdays, then you can do some math for that
20:13
in this example, monday is 2 and thursday is 5
20:13
so u first put calculate expression (V-2)(V-5)
20:13
and check if that is equal to 0
20:14
i'll have to test this but it should work

Much better for sure. Base64 sometimes becomes too large and causes issues. But how do you handle line breaks?

Ohh because you pass the HTML in as a text action?

I put it directly in the URL if it's a one-liner, but anything more complex goes in a Text action

mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0408YYYY-100817
Makes sense for sure. Much less work for the app to process it if it isn't base64. I noticed some safari pages are a struggle to load because of all the base64
Avatar
FifiTheBulldog 0408YYYY-100943
Yeah, the base64 encoding and decoding is just a lot of extra work with no gain. I use the charset thing when the HTML might have arbitrary characters in it, but other than that it was liberating to discover that the base64 step was completely unnecessary.

You’ll have to open the page in Safari with a URL like this: data:text/html;charset=utf-8,<html here>
13:59
If you want to get user input back in the shortcut, that has to be done either by using the clipboard or using a shortcuts://run-shortcut URL that contains the input as a parameter, which would run the shortcut from the top.

Not possible. You’ll need to use the shortcut to take the screenshot, rather than having the act of taking the screen shot run a shortcut.

I didn't think it was for support. That's why I said #general Download count doesn't correlate to how good a shortcut is though. A brilliant shortcut could get almost no downloads if it has poor documentation and no discussion or advertising of it anywhere. While a mediocre shortcut can get a lot of downloads if it is advertised and documented well. It's a funny situation

All of the toggle dark mode shortcuts seem to only work right when run in the Shortcuts app. Run as an icon it only goes one direction: turn on dark mode. I assume the technique for determine if currently in dark mode is failing when run that way. Is there a technique to determine that that can be used when run from the Home Screen?

Hi! Super new here (discord & shortcuts). I am a nurse. We have a new app at my work that we use to clock in/out. I was hoping that Shortcuts could help out... I'd someone's help in scripting this as well... I've watched too much youtube on the topic today! Currently, we open the app, log in (user/pass), verify with 2nd factor authenticator, then select clock in. Is that too much for siri?

I know what it is in HTML, but I suggest you learn Markdown. It’s a heck of a lot easier than writing out the HTML elements all the time.

Try having Get File only get ’UpdateMaster’, I think there may have been a bug with iOS 12 shortcuts where you couldn’t get a file directly with get file and instead you would need to get the files from a folder

Always when submitting feedback or sending messages for support, make your statements and message very clear and fit it all into a single message if possible. It makes it much better for the recipient of the content and easier for them to conclude where the issue is and potentially get them to a place where they can fix / address the issue

Hey I’ve been having issues with iOS 14 “Exit shortcut” action only exiting the current instance of a shortcut, not exiting the whole shortcut chain it’s linked to in the ram. Is there a way to end all shortcut actions without crashing the app?
Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0730YYYY-062230
Unfortunately, no. It can only exit the running instance. Can you share a screenshot or the entire shortcut of what specifically you're talking about?
Avatar
TCTalk (MC Studio Suite) 0730YYYY-091656
I’m just making an exit/quit button for the main menu of multiple of my shortcuts, but it runs itself to get to the settings menu because it has a toggle. So when it’s toggled a few times, then you hit main menu, then exit, it’ll keep showing the shortcut because it’s only exiting the instance. It didn’t used to do this lol. I think I may have found a workaround, but I can’t get this to work. You see what I’m trying to do?

Heyy so I don’t really know how to ask this since I’m kind of a noob to shortcut automations and mostly tech stuff.. but I want to set my iPhone to do a voice command I set up the shortcut I had gotten from the routine hub but I would like to set a text idk where to go to copy and paste one but I would like to have a more cool one that I could copy and paste as a Base64 code
Avatar
Deleted User 0803YYYY-051722
So you want a shortcut to take your clipboard and convert it to Base64, and then copy it?

How do I make it so that icons are shown properly via a vCard menu on iOS 14? My icons all have a white background to them.

it's not possible @G30 That's the downside to using vCards in iOS 14. The only way around it is to use an image/photo menu

So I can’t figure out why this won’t work. It’s meant to list 3 things off the query being inputted, because that’s all there is. But it only shows the last one without the picture, anyone knows what’s wrong? https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/dad68b26d68145868ccbca305e9b2833 ib: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/2205/ (edited)

https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/bfda4e7d63d84a87a77ded28483081ff Reason was, base64 action was set to include line breaks and you didn't have anything to actually download the images at the poster URL so it was generating a strange image. Based on those fixes and a few other things I did to cut down the unnecessary actions, its working now Also, your API key is still in there By the way (edited)

Yeah to add on to mvan I really recommend you remove your API key and also regenerate a new one, anyone with your API key can publish (and delete possibly, idk, haven't used the rh api in a while) any shortcut they want on your account.

I can’t get any variables to work outside of a function.
@G30 have you initialized it on the subsequent shortcut run? I am betting that you run the function, but then when the shortcut runs again, there is nothing that is setting that variable up again if it is present in the runshortcut action input so that the shortcut knows the value is present on the next run, right? (edited)

mvan231 (ShortCasts) 0830YYYY-072515
It's confusing you, but that's okay. Your shortcut is function based, so it runs a function, then runs the shortcut again, right?

If your reddit app lets you share the content link (not a reddit.com post url) then it'll work. Seems like reddit built some sort of youtube-dl detection recently. You can also use Apollo though

Granted I'm on 14.8.1, but if you bring it out of the nested spot it's in that should get bigger

Even when I nest as deep as I can with if statements it's still usable though

Has anyone played around with the extract text action? I ran it on a receipt and most of the values were correct but items from the same line were mixed with items from different lines. Anyone know how to keep lines together?
Avatar
mvan231 (ShortCasts) 1119YYYY-035055
I have used it a few times and it's generally pretty good but overall I think it might need some additional options to help extract info, else we might need some method to crop photos and then extract, to get all the text in the proper order. Does this mean you updated to 15? 😮

I can think of two possible reasons: - You’re on iOS 14, trying to download a shortcut made and uploaded on iOS 15. Sometimes Shortcuts on iOS 14 is unable to retrieve the actions of those shortcuts for some reason. gluebyte’s Shortcut Downgrader can help with that: https://routinehub.co/shortcut/9899 - If that’s not the case, then it could be a short-term iCloud outage.

Hey there! I have some Math in my shortcut and I just realized Decimal Symbol is different in other Regions than mine and this crashes the shortcut. I have 2.34 divide by an input number, shortcut works fine if the region uses "Dot" as Decimal Symbol but if Region uses "Comma" as Decimal Symbol, shortcut crashes. How can I fix this issue? Apple itself should have cover this subject but I searched the Shortcut app but there was no Action to do so. Thanks for any help. (edited)

atnbueno 1126YYYY-130043
Yeah, old problem. I reported it as FB9675278 but I won't hold my breath 😓 In Spain we use the comma as decimal separator. When I want the shortcut to work in any region I do the math with "Calculate Expression" (which requires periods in all regions). Then I determine the region separator calculating "1/2", splitting it by each character and getting the second one. I can then replace it by a period pre-math, and restore it it later post-math with a second replacement. Not really a "It just works", Apple 😠 (edited)

If it's only a simple calculation a possible workaround is use variables for everything. For more complex expressions the method above is the only solution. This shortcut shows both: https://www.icloud.com/shortcuts/9ce1c1f48e0f4053be550b4238964e4a

Correct. Define your "2.34" in a "Number" action, and Shortcuts will use the correct separator in a "Calculate" action. BUT NOT in the "Calculate Expression" action. To use that you need to use the replacement workaround.

I've just fixed a long-standing bug in my time zones shortcut and I'm going to take the opportunity to add additional languages. Does anyone want to help translate it to anything other than Spanish, Catalan, English, French or Turkish? (those are the ones I already have) As explained in https://routinehub.co/shortcut/8012/, this is what the shortcut needs for every language:
"en": { "LOCAL TIME": "Local Date\/time?", "OUTPUT TITLE": "“%s” is equivalent to", "COPY OUTPUT": "Copy to the clipboard?", "Date\/Time Format": "MMM d, h:mma" }
You can also translate the names of the cities and countries to another language:
"Replacements": { "Porto": "Oporto", "Chatham Is\\.": "Islas Chatham", "\\(Japan\\)": "(Japón)", "\\(NZ\\)": "(N.Z.)", "\\(US\\)": "(EE.UU.)", "Mexico": "México", "Mumbai": "Bombay", "St. John’s": "S. Juan de T.", "\\(Spain\\)": "(España)" }

Voice control is probably the only way if that app doesn't offer an API, shortcuts integration, or a URL scheme. And voice control is not really recommended for this in shortcuts tbh. If that's the only way, it could very well be done but not all apps play well with voice control

or does it use the chromium api
22:56
just checked out your code, please don't parse the url as a string, use the URL class It's fully supported by Gecko and Chromium https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/URL/URL
URL() - Web APIs | MDN
The URL() constructor returns a newly created URL object representing the URL defined by the parameters.

Correct. Shortcuts can open any app, but functionality within an app is only available to Shortcuts if the app's developer specifically allows it.

…and the way to confirm if developer allowed it in Petcube?

Search for Petcube in the search bar for actions. If nothing comes up, then the developer hasn’t added Shortcuts support at all.

Just my luck. I’ve decided to attach a smart plug to it for $9 and set it to presence sense Home off and Away on. This way Petcube doesn’t record when I’m home and enjoying some rips on my bong! 😀All future electronic purchases will be Google Home compatible! (edited)

There was a way before. But in iOS 15 it gets tricky. You could do this: - add the shortcuts to a folder - use a get my shortcuts actions to get the shortcuts from that folder - use a zip action to zip the shortcuts - send them the zip and see if it will unzip and allow them to open the files

You can't create links to Shortcuts in 15, right? Otherwise you could just get all the shortcuts, loop for each one and then the links. You could even make it prettier by saying the shortcut name before each link

true, but the old method of getting links can also be done without a repeat. You just feed the list of files to the action and it spits all the links out

If it's something that saves you time, then by all means, do it. Like enabling airplane mode at a certain time or logging when your device is plugged in / unplugged. But if you don't have a reason to make a shortcut, then you can try and toy around with some other thinks like accessing APIs or similar

Quick question. I have the api call configured correctly via insomnia and I believe it’s setup correctly in shortcuts but the response I am getting inside shortcuts is just blank. If I change the request to invalidate what I send it returns an error like you would expect.

I am not sure what that is, I’m talking about populating the list with text that is in the text, without having to manually type out each list item. See image. Do I have to do something with regex or a repeat with each? Sorry just realized in the wrong channel lol (edited)

Could you be more specific about what the list should look like? If you want the contents of the Text action to represent the entire list, then you can use Split Text. If you want to use the items in the Text action as merely part of the list, rather than the entire list, you can use Split Text too, and then pass the Split Text magic variable into the List action as an item. It will automatically be expanded to add each item to the main list.

What do you mean by icons in the menu? In a shortcut menu? You can use vCards or picture / photo menus.

If I tap 'Options' then variable 'SearchTitle' becomes 'Options' and variable 'Function' becomes 'Show Result', and it searches omdb for 'Options'. I didn't go further because I don't have the API key

atnbueno 0331YYYY-030816
I would do it like this: 1) The wallpapers: - Put all the wallpaper files in an iCloud Drive folder (for simplicity I'll assume they're all in JPEG format) - Name the day-of-the-week wallpapers as the corresponding days (e.g. "Monday.jpg") - Name special-day wallpapers as the date (e.g. "March 31.jpg") 2) The shortcut: - Ask for a date if no date is received as input - Formatting the date as month and day, check if there's a wallpaper with that name (a special day), and use it if it exists - Otherwise, format the date as day of the week, and use the corresponding wallpaper file 3) The automation: - At the time of the day you want (e.g. sunrise) run the shortcut above with the current date as input (edited)

So it’s more that I set up the files correctly so that a daily automation happens to line up with the days of the week, or is there a variable which allows me to set things for days of the week?

"Iftar" is at sunset, isn't it? If so, it's possible. You can even trigger a shortcut at that precise time. And "Adhan" is the call to prayer, isn't it? I don't know its timing. (edited)
