Problems using Custom Attributes (Export)

The pictures are cropped in this forum, please right-click and open in a separate browser-window.

Hi,

I have serious problems getting along with custom export attributes. I just don't get how it works. I already searched the web, but basically the only helpful post I've found is this http://www.noodlesoft.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1587. I've used this as a tutorial.

Example workflow:
I want a file named 'test.txt' to be renamed in [date added][custom export attribute][name].txt:

Conditions:
1) Name is test
2) Kind is Text
3) Passes Apple Script (embedded script) -> Script should only return a custom attribute which is fixed to "02" for this example.

Action:
Rename with pattern: [date added][custom export attribute][name].txt

The problem is that returning the custom export attribute from Apple Script causes trouble. It seems that the return statement is wrong. I don't know if I'm doing it wrong or if this is a bug. The following error appears (also cf. the logfile at the end of this post):

My question: What do I have to do in order to return a custom attribute from an Apple Script and to use it in my actions. Can someone give me an example, please?

Any help is appreciated - thanks!

hazelExportTokens is the old one. You want to use hazelOutputAttributes now. Note that it's a list, not a record, and the order of values you return needs to match up with the list of attributes you specify in the UI.

Oh, I also noticed that you are using an AppleScript in a condition. In that case, you also need to return whether the file passes the script via the "hazelPassesScript" item in the record.

Thanks for your support! Now it works as expected

BTW, the correct code for my example is:

Code: Select all: return {hazelExportTokens:{"02"}, hazelPassesScript:true}
