LogSeq Alfred Workflow

A simple but powerful Alfred workflow to quickly add entries to your daily LogSeq journal.

Features

• Quick Add: Use the ls keyword to instantly add a new block to your daily journal page.
• Secure: Your LogSeq API key is stored securely in the macOS Keychain, not in plain text.
• Customizable Date Format: Supports LogSeq's default ordinal date format (e.g., "Sep 6th, 2023") or a custom strftime format.

Installation

1. Go to the Releases page of this repository.
2. Download the latest Logseq.alfredworkflow file.
3. Double-click the downloaded file to install it in Alfred.

Setup

Before using the workflow, you need to configure it with your LogSeq API key.

1. In LogSeq, go to Settings > Features and enable the HTTP API Server.
2. Copy your API Authorization Token.
3. In Alfred, type ls-setkey , paste your API key, and press Enter.
   • Example: ls-setkey 12345-abcdef-67890
4. You will see a notification confirming that the key has been saved.

Usage

With the workflow installed and configured, simply use the ls keyword in Alfred to add an entry.

• Keyword: ls
• Action: Type your journal entry after the keyword.
• Example: ls Finished updating the README for my new project.

This will append "- Finished updating the README for my new project." as a new block on today's journal page in LogSeq.

Configuration

You can customize the workflow's behavior by changing its environment variables in Alfred's workflow editor.

• api_endpoint: The address of the LogSeq API server. Defaults to http://127.0.0.1:12315/api.
• journal_date_format: Controls the date format used for the journal page name.
  • ordinal (default): Uses LogSeq's default format, e.g., "Sep 6th, 2023".
  • Any other value is treated as a strftime format string, e.g., %Y-%m-%d would produce "2023-09-06".

Build

The build.sh script will package the workflow into a compressed .alfredworkflow file. You can add an optional install argument to have it automatically open it which will prompt you to install/update into Alfred.
