Keypirinha/Keypirinha

A keystroke launcher for Windows

@ueffel

@brouwert that seems a bit cleaner than appending sys.path directly but the result is the same basically.

@hmnd

@polyvertex since it doesn't look like you're maintaining the project anymore, do you at least plan to release the source? It would really be a shame to see Keypirinha die.

Scrolling back, I see you did say Keypirinha is not dead, but wouldn't it be wise to open source it if you don't have enough time to commit to it?

Hi there! Any news regarding my FR Keypirinha/Keypirinha#362 ?

It seems like a very easy thing to do (giving plugin developers the option that Keypirinha stays open after execution or calling a method on user selection). /-:

Hi there! I would like to be able to search google without having to first type g{TAB}. Is there a way to configure a fallback option? i.e. with Alfred whenever you type "something", one of the options will be "Search Google for something..."

Steffen Brüheim

@ueffel

@Cm_LMao_twitter it can't be configured this way. Sorry.

I'm new to this app. Formally used SlickRun. Can't seem to figure out how to make custom keywords. For example, I type something like "cat" and it opens an app located on my USB like "Z:\Apps\blender.exe". Is Keypirinha not capable to do this?

Steffen Brüheim

@ueffel

@rlee3d sadly no. your keyword has to appear somewhere in the item label (first line in keypirinha).

@dma550

@rlee3d I use the apps plugin for this. This is an example to get me to a directory with a command "xtest" [cmd/xtest]
item_label = xtest
cmd=d:\webapps

[cmd/xtest]
item_label = xtest
cmd=d:\webapps

rlee3d

@rlee3d

Sweet. That's half my battle done. Any way to use it to open an EXE file?

Hmm. Looks like it works for EXE as well. Nice, thanks dma550.

[cmd/xtest]
item_label = xtest
cmd=c:\tmp\PureRef.exe

@rlee3d

Can I make each one have a custom icon?

Evan Tao

@yimt

Hi all what's wrong about the 'hotkey_run = Ctrl + Ctrl'

Steffen Brüheim

@ueffel

@rlee3d icon for custom commands are on the TODO list: #238

@yimt i think its supposed to be a combination of keys to be pressed together, not one after the other.

@tam481

Hello all, is there a way to cache icons for items in the catalogue? I find that if I start typing it takes a while for Keypirinha to display the icons despite being installed on NVMe.

Anyone know how the [env] section works? I'd like to over-ride a system environment variable (PATHEXT) for a specific plugin

Jean-Charles Lefebvre

@polyvertex

@cpriest variables you manually add in the [env] section that happen to already exist in your environment (typically like PATHEXT) will be overwritten by KP. Not only at startup time but every time your environment changes or your config is reloaded. What's the need specifically?

kchiem

@kchiem

in the Apps plugin, if I have a keyword configured to start multiple commands, is there a way to have those commands started sequentially? or to configure a delay between running each command?

I've taken the liberty to write a plugin for YouTrack: https://github.com/mx-bernhard/keypirinha-youtrack/releases

Enjoy!

Added to PackageControl, thx

@mx-bernhard

Excellent :)

@JRussell

Hi. I tried searching the docs and google for this but I wasn't able to find an answer. If there a way to disable the key combo when certain apps are in focus or disable when a fullscreen app is in focus. Anything like that. This would be to avoid triggering it while in a game.

Steffen Brüheim

@ueffel

There is no feature like this implemented in Keypirinha as far as I know. Sorry.

JRussell

@JRussell

Ok, thank you.

Hello, I'm trying to open pdf on a specific page
[cmd/Stm32f103]
cmd = cmd /K "C:\Program Files (x86)\Foxit Software\Foxit Reader\Foxit Reader.exe" "C:\Project\datasheet\STM32\STM32F103xx.pdf" /A page=786

How can I assign the name of the keyboard as a parameter?

for example:
cmd = cmd /K "..Foxit Reader.exe" "\STM32F103xx.pdf" /A page={{1}}
if({1}=="USART"){
{1}=725
}
if({1}=="SPI"){
{1}=234
}

Steffen Brüheim

@ueffel

@Maxim-DE i afraid that is not possible with keypirinha alone. but you could write yourself a batch script that does your logic and call it from keypirinha.

Clint Priest

@cpriest

@polyvertex Been a bit busy, late reply. I normally run with PATHEXT including .ps1, .bat, .lnk, etc. For one or two plugins I want to limit/remove a bunch of the PATHEXT options. The reason for this is that I use scoop which creates "shims" for the software, it happens to create a .cmd, .bat, .exe and .ps1 shim for every executable, so darn near everything shows up in quadruples.

Hey there, I am noticing I am on 2.22 and I use chocolatey. Has the latest not made its way there for easy updates? Weird, I did find it, but its not showing as an upgrade for my 2.22.

@dma550

I did a reinstall and it worked.

@DiveSoDeep

I found a lot of similalr questions but couldn't find an answer. Is it possible to use Everything in Keypirinha without typing "Everything" or maybe use hotkeys to start Keypirinha with Everything search?

Hello, I am having trouble with indexing the path ${env:DataDrive}\Projects [local]\** with the FilesCatalog package. According to the console, it does not find any items, while its adjacent path ${env:DataDrive}\Projects\** is indexed properly.
Do I have to escape the brackets? I tried using \, ^, and doubling the characters.

Steffen Brüheim

@ueffel

@lukas-mu brackets are interpreted by the glob module. to escape them you ironically have to enclose them in brackets: so ${env:DataDrive}\Projects [[]local[]]\** should work

lukas-mu

@lukas-mu

@ueffel And it does indeed work, thank you!

Is there any way to turn off or toggle the fuzzy search?
I find it sometimes cumbersome to have fuzzy search enabled as it populates the list with irrelevant items (for me!) . Having a way to toggle or disable fuzzy search would be great.

Or better, having another keybinding to non-fuzzy search would be awesome!

Hiya!

is there any sort of Alarm Clock-esque plugin out for KP?

Steffen Brüheim

@ueffel

Not that I know of, sorry.

Maxim-DE

@Maxim-DE

Good afternoon, I really like KP, but I need to switch to ubuntu, tell me can I install KP in it?

Maxim-DE

@Maxim-DE

I found that if in the history of the KP press “tab” on the once open folder, then you can select the directory folders, but if you press “Backspace” you will return to the history of the KP. is it possible to configure the KP so that you would not go back to history but to the previous catalog?

hi,there. anyone use google auth with keypirinha? I find it a long time and found none.

Steffen Brüheim

@ueffel

@Maxim-DE keypirinha won't work on linux. alternatively you can try something like Synapse
