[REQUEST] Share Extension

davidrcalvert

Hi ,

I have been using Drafts on ios and now on Mac. I find that using Drafts app as an external editor , I can add to the Archive notes if I cut and paste from the Drafts Mac app. However, it would be one step less if The Archive had a share extension.
Any chance that would be implemented?

Thanks.

David

I didn't know about Drafts for macOS. Wouldn't adding an output action to Drafts work as well, saving the file in the ~/path/to/your/notes/YYYYMMDD title.txt format? I do it this way on iOS at least. That's the beauty of Drafts, IMHO: you don't have to change any other apps since Drafts help you write the glue, i.e. actions, to make things work.

That being said, app interoperability is on the to-do list!

@ctietze True, except that Drafts for Mac is still in beta and Actions aren't ready yet! :-)

@apoc527 I think Drafts is now released for macOS; did the situation regarding actions change? Can you do something with it?

Drafts for macOS does not implement actions at this point. It is coming but not there yet.

Actions are not ready yet, but I solved that with a KM macro that basically does the same thing my Save to the Archive action on iOS does (saves file to Dropbox).
