📝 Release notes

0.6.0

January 26th, 2025

powerpack

• Add support for variables. Adds Output::variables, Item::variables, and Modifier::variables which allow you to set the variables which are passed out of the script filter object.

  These remain accessible throughout the current session as environment variables. In addition, they are passed back in when the script reruns within the same session. This can be used for managing state between runs as the user types input or when the script is set to re-run after an interval.

• Add compile_error! binary to powerpack crate. If you try to install powerpack as a binary it will now direct you to install powerpack-cli.

0.5.0

December 31st, 2023

powerpack-cli

• Support workspaces with --package flag. Previously powerpack only worked with the root package of a workspace. You can now have multiple packages in a workspace and use the --package flag to specify which package to build, link or package. The workflow/ directory containing the package information must be in the same directory as the manifest file for the particular package.

powerpack

• Support skipknowledge option. Adds Output::skip_knowledge which allows you to set uid and preserve the item order while allowing Alfred to retain knowledge of your items, like your current selection during a re-run.

• Support Universal Actions. Adds Item::action which allows you to set the universal action(s) for an item.

• Support multiple item arguments. Adds Item::args which allows you to set multiple arguments which will be passed as a JSON array.

• Support multiple modifier keys. Adds Modifier::new_multi which allows you to specify a combination of keys as the modifier.
