the rules/embedded script worked previously

here is a link to video proof https://vimeo.com/368412750 that the rules worked in a previous version of hazel.

the rules are

Code: Select all

KIND   IS    FOLDER
DATE last Matched IS Blank
DATE created IS in the last 5 Mins
NAME MATCHES <date>tag

the embedded script to run when triggered is

Code: Select all

/bin/zsh
mkdir -p $1/{Music,Fotos/{B\ Roll,80D,Timelapse},Video/{hyperlapse,zoom}}

which would create folders in desired locations

Code: Select all

~/wacthedDir/NewDir($1)/Music
                 |-----/Fotos/B Roll
                 |         |_/80D
                 |         |_/Timelapse
                 |------/Video/Hyperlapse
                           |_/zoom


However, NOW I get a notification error that hazel "shell script failed error processing shell script on file 'newDirName'"

I have changed the 'shell' path in 'ebedded path' from bash, zsh, sh, and fish. most fail, bash and sh will create all the Directories in the watched Directory.


any suggestions would be appreciated

Turn on debug mode as described here: https://www.noodlesoft.com/kb/hazel-debug-mode/

After that, check the logs. Any output from the script should appear there.

this is the output from log with the shell env set to zsh

Code: Select all

in 'zsh' Hazel appears to trigger and fail (no dirs created)
in 'bash' Hazel makes dirs, but places them incorrectly.

Code: Select all

~/Downloads/7D mk3},Video/{b roll,cam a,/
        |__/12
        |__/12 Jan 2019
        |__/2019/{Music,Fotos
        |__/Hyperlapse}}
        |__/Jan

Have you tried the script outside of Hazel? Also, you should not switch to zsh without rewriting the script (if you originally wrote it with sh/bash in mind).

Also, it doesn't look like you are accounting for spaces in the path. I would suggest quoting it.

The script works outside of hazel, when of course, I replace $1 {properly\ escaped\ dir\ name}

The script also worked in a previous version of Hazel as seen in the vimeo link. I do not recall changing/setting zsh in the original script Hazel {embedded script}. I changed/tested the shell to see what errors I would get.

{/bin/zsh} was meant to specify which shell I was using.

quoting the path "$1/{Music,Fotos/{B\ Roll,80D,Timelapse},Video/{hyperlapse,zoom}}"


now makes

figured out a solution

Code: Select all

mkdir -p $1/{"Music","Fotos"}/{"B Roll","80D","Timelapse"}
mkdir -p $1/Video/{"hyperlapse","zoom"}


I tried a few variations (stubbornly wanted to make it a one liner). In the end I think this is more clear as to how/what I was trying to nest.
Hopefully this helps someone else that is trying to do something similar

You might want to quote the $1 individually, e.g. "$1".
