/github comand/Wh
would show a link to this issue (could also be used with PRs)Two I'd love, one that's simple and one that's not:
@dget OOOOOO I love both of these
How about /emoji cactus
for :cactus:, with the same names that github/slack/basically-everyone uses? I know you can get to the emoji from menu Edit -> Emoji & Symbols, but as slack & github show, it's a much better experience to tab-complete a word than scroll through pages of icons.
Maybe something like: /map
-> a geo-location feature that snaps a screenshot map plus google map link. Like when you need to quickly send someone your location.
I have an IFTTT recipe that does this.
edit: looks like google maps has an API call for this, just requires long and lat and an API key https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/static-maps/intro
:+1: for /emoji
Or link to Google search results for a specific term. e.g. "Great, look who's winning the primary: 2016 Primary"
For /emoji
, might have to add a polyfill for default emoji support for Chrome on Windows... Unless it's been updated more recently.
Love the Google Maps idea and /emoji
is the next one I'm working on!
Just released an update (v0.0.14
) that adds /emoji
— it's not perfect, but it works. If anyone is around this weekend and wants to learn how to add a command, I'd be happy to help!
@jessepollak Maybe a way to add predefined templates for emails?
Loved the extension BTW
@russdogg Can you share your IFTTT Recipe for Google Maps?
I've started working on the Wikipedia command! I've forked it here - https://github.com/cryptixdevelopment/command
The API is strange and returns three different arrays, each for the titles, excerpts, and urls. But I've got that converting to a more suitable array of clear objects.
It's "working" at the minute, just the results aren't formatted very well yet.
I think another good command would be to be able to quickly search on the App Store
quickly pull up the current stock information,
/stock <Search Stock>
I got bored and also added in an App Store command - https://github.com/cryptixdevelopment/command
It works fine, except the pagination isn't perfect.
@cryptixdevelopment so awesome! Do you want to submit a PR? Would love to take a look and merge them in :D
@jessepollak Yeah sure, the Wiki command still needs work but at least the functionality is there.
@jessepollak I think these could be added:
/googleplay
/apps
command that searches both (and possibly Windows 10, Ubuntu, etc. app stores)/search
/lmgtfy
/deviantart
/apkmirror
/producthunt
/xda
Awesome extension! Just thought about something similar yesterday and found this.
Have you thought about allowing custom commands? I'm thinking this could be very useful as a productivity tool in a work environment but the commands would need to be very customized and connect to internal services.
Also, the ability to "pipe" commands together would be boss. Something like "/youtube searchparam | bitly".
Custom Commands are already supported. See the CONTRIBUTING.md file here: https://github.com/jessepollak/command/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md to learn how to create one.
You can also see the source code of existing command such as /emoji under src/content/commands
folder
@ishu3101 I think @scrussell24 means a easy way for users to make them with a Settings UI (so you could add macro slashes (/omw=on my way) like Slash Keyboard does on mobile). That's for devs to implement API style commands (like the YouTube API for video search for instance)
