alfred-fzy-chrome-history

Fuzzy search your chrome's history.

This workflow uses:

• Fzy for fuzzy searching.
• Sqlite for reading chrome History's database.

This workflow is similar to the workflow I created at https://github.com/tuan/alfred-fzf-chrome-history, the main difference is that this workflow uses FZY instead of FZF.

I found that the javascript implementation of FZY to be more responsive than the javascript port of FZF I use in the other workflow.

This workflow is what I'm currently using, the FZF workflow is still there for people who prefer FZF.

Installation

npm i -g alfred-fzy-chrome-history

Usage

Prefix

Default prefix to trigger the workflow is: ch

Global search

ch <fuzzy search keywords>

Scope search

You can limit the search scope to a particular domain by specifying the domain keywords with @ prefix.

Note:

1. Domain keywords use exact match algorithm. So @git will only match github.com or gitlab.com, but won't match <g>ofor<it>.com.
2. You can specify multiple domain keywords in your query to incrementally fine tune your search. For example: too broad @git need narrowing down to @hub and only dev tld @dev will search only domains that match git.*hub.*dev such as github.dev

Example:

1. ch @git <fuzzy search keywords> will perform the search for all pages whose domain includes the word git.
2. ch <fuzzy search keywords> @git does the same thing as above.
3. ch @git <fuzzy search keywords> @lab will perform the search for all pages whose domain is git.*lab, for example: gitlab.com instead of github.com
