Can't see any applications

[zgr0629]

Using the latest 0.9.1 version.

Gray didn't asks for Full Disk Access, I manually added Gary to have Full Disk Access, but nothing changes, still no apps in Gary. Does anyone know the clue?

same problem, don't know how to fix this.

@zgr0629 @changzhiga version 0.9.1 had a bug when parsing applications. It should be fixed in 0.9.2 and 0.9.3.

Hi zenangst, as this gif shows, 0.9.3 still can't show the rdm.app.

What is the location of rdm.app? And what is rdm? Do you know if it is an electron based application?

Hi zenangst, rdm.app is located at /Applications/rdm.app, as it mentioned at the top of gif. And rdm.app is an redis gui client app based on Qt 5(not an electron based application). Github page at https://github.com/uglide/RedisDesktopManager.

Dose the Qt5 application matters? I have tried to copy rdm.app to ~/Applications and reopen Gray.app, but still can't find it.

I have found the Bundle ID of rdm.app and configures it manually in terminal:

mdls -name kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier /Applications/rdm.app
kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier = "com.redisdesktop.rdm"

defaults write com.redisdesktop.rdm NSRequiresAquaSystemAppearance -bool YES

It works, but still can't find the rdm.app in Gray.app

@zgr0629 I'm a bit unsure why it fails, I don't use any Qt5 apps myself so this is new to me. I'll try and build the application and see if I can't get to the bottom of it. I'll keep you posted :)

@zenangst Thank you, and maybe you need this script I wrote to build the latest version of rdm.app.

#!/bin/bash

SHELL_FOLDER=$(cd "$(dirname "$0")";pwd)

echo '=======================Clone RDM repository======================='
git clone --recursive https://github.com/uglide/RedisDesktopManager.git rdm
cd $SHELL_FOLDER/rdm
TAG=$(git describe --tags `git rev-list --tags --max-count=1`)

echo "=======================Switch to latest tag: ${TAG}===================="
echo 'switch to latest tag: '$TAG
cd $SHELL_FOLDER/rdm
git checkout -b $TAG $TAG

echo '=======================Build CrashReporter======================='
cd $SHELL_FOLDER/rdm/3rdparty/crashreporter
# errors on latest version of crashrepoter, build version 7ec6f00 instead.
git checkout 7ec6f00
qmake DESTDIR=./bin
make -s -j 8
mkdir -p $SHELL_FOLDER/rdm/bin/osx/release
mv $SHELL_FOLDER/rdm/3rdparty/crashreporter/bin/crashreporter $SHELL_FOLDER/rdm/bin/osx/release

echo '=======================Modify RDM version======================='
cd $SHELL_FOLDER/rdm/src
echo 'copy Info.plist'
cp resources/Info.plist.sample resources/Info.plist
echo 'modify rdm.pro'
sed -i '' "s/0.9.999/$TAG/g" rdm.pro
sed -i '' 's/debug: CONFIG-=app_bundle/#debug: CONFIG-=app_bundle/g' rdm.pro

echo "=======================Build RDM ${TAG}======================="
cd $SHELL_FOLDER/rdm/src
./configure
qmake CONFIG-=debug
make -s -j 8

echo "=======================Copy QT Framework(optional)======================="

Hey @zgr0629, sorry for the delay. Can you try this new version to see if that doesn't fix your issue with rdm.app ?
