Drafts Directory: Better IMDb Search

Action

Posted by Greg S, Last update over 6 years ago

Search IMDb, using either the app (if installed) or the inline browser (if app is not detected).

Steps

script

// Get the selected text from the Draft.
// If no text is selected, get entire Draft.

const selectedText = editor.getSelectedText();
var lookupText;
if (selectedText && selectedText!=="") {
	lookupText = selectedText;
} else {
	lookupText = editor.getText();
}

// Attempt to launch IMDB app.

var result = app.openURL("imdb:///find?q=" + encodeURIComponent(lookupText), false)

// If app launch failed, show IMDB in inline browser.

if (!result) {
  openURL = app.openURL("https://www.imdb.com/find?q=" + encodeURIComponent(lookupText), true)
}
