In what format is the Copy all URLs extensions in Google Chrome inserting the URLs on the clipboard?
Whether it is simply strains of textual content with one URL on every line, then the next instance AppleScript code will open a brand new window in Safari and open every URL in a brand new tab:
set theURLs to paragraphs of (the clipboard)
inform software "Safari"
make new doc with properties {URL:first merchandise of theURLs}
activate
inform entrance window
repeat with i from 2 to the size of theURLs
set present tab to (make new tab with properties {URL:merchandise i of theURLs})
finish repeat
set present tab to first tab
finish inform
finish inform
If you wish to not have the goal Safari window stay frontmost whereas opening every URL in a brand new tab, then here’s a technique to have that occur:
Instance AppleScript code:
set theURLs to paragraphs of (the clipboard)
set windowName to random quantity from 1000000 to 9999999
set tmpFileName to "/personal/tmp/" & windowName & ".html"
set tmpFileContent to "<html><head><title>" & windowName & "</title></head></html>"
if not my writeToFile(tmpFileContent, tmpFileName, true) then return
inform software "Safari"
make new doc with properties {URL:"file://" & tmpFileName}
set i to 0
repeat whereas not (exists (home windows whose identify is windowName))
delay 0.1
set i to i + 1
if i = 30 then return
finish repeat
set winID to (id of home windows whose identify is windowName) as quantity
make new tab at finish of tabs of window id winID with properties {URL:merchandise 1 of myURLs}
delete first tab of window id winID
repeat with i from 2 to (size of myURLs)
make new tab at finish of tabs of window id winID with properties {URL:merchandise i of myURLs}
delay 1
finish repeat
finish inform
inform software "System Occasions" to delete file tmpFileName
-- # Handler #
on writeToFile(theData, theFile, overwriteExistingContent)
attempt
set theFile to theFile as string
if theFile accommodates "/" then
set theOpenedFile to open for entry theFile with write permission
else
set theOpenedFile to open for entry file theFile with write permission
finish if
if overwriteExistingContent is true then set eof of theOpenedFile to 0
write theData to theOpenedFile beginning at eof
shut entry theOpenedFile
return true
on error
attempt
shut entry file theFile
finish attempt
return false
finish attempt
finish writeToFile
The instance AppleScript code can be utilized in an Automator Service/Fast Motion with a Run AppleScript motion utilizing the instance AppleScript code rather than the default code.
Open: Automator — File > New ⌘N
Select a sort in your doc: Fast Motion
Set Workflow receives [no input] in [Safari]
Add a Run AppleScript motion from: Actions > Library > Utilities
Change the default code with the instance AppleScript code.
Save the Automator Service/Fast Motion.
Assign the brand new Service/Fast Motion a keyboard shortcut in: System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Providers.
It’s then accessible from the Providers menu in Safari and as a keyboard shortcut.
The instance AppleScript code will also be utilized in any third-party software that has the flexibility to set off AppleScript code and or assign it a keyboard shortcut. I personally use FastScripts and I’m not related to its developer, only a glad person of the product.
Notes:
-
This second instance AppleScript code contains some error dealing with, in that if the tmp file (worth of the
tmpFileName
variable) shouldn’t be created the script aborts with none message. This may be modified by changing theif not my writeToFile ...
assertion to a fullif
block and embody an applicableshow alert
,show dialog
orshow notification
command, as needed, adopted by thereturn
command. -
The
repeat
loop as coded is written to attend as much as 3 seconds for the HTML file to load and must be greater than sufficient time. Regulate if obligatory. -
As coded, it assumes the clipboard accommodates simply strains of textual content with one URL on every line.
Word: The instance AppleScript code is simply that and sans any included error dealing with doesn’t comprise any further error dealing with as could also be applicable. The onus is upon the person so as to add any error dealing with as could also be applicable, wanted or needed. Take a look on the attempt assertion and error assertion within the AppleScript Language Information. See additionally, Working with Errors. Moreover, using the delay command could also be obligatory between occasions the place applicable, e.g. delay 0.5
, with the worth of the delay set appropriately.
