-- This module provides utility functions to interact with Alfred
-- version 2. It is intended to be used for writing "script filters"
-- used in Alfred workflows.
--
-- For example the following excerpt defines a script for Google
-- search with auto completion:
--
-- @
-- import Alfred
-- import Alfred.Query
-- import qualified Data.Text as T
-- import Data.Text (Text)
--
-- runQuery :: String -> IO (Text,[Text])
-- runQuery query = jsonQuery suggestURL query
--
-- suggestURL = "http://suggestqueries.google.com/complete/search?output=toolbar&client=firefox&hl=en&q="
--
-- mkItems :: (Text, [Text]) -> [Item]
-- mkItems = mkSearchItems MkSearch {
-- searchURL = \s -> T.concat ["https://www.google.com/search?q=", s],
-- notFound = \s -> T.concat ["No suggestion. Google for ", s, "."],
-- found = \s -> T.concat ["Search results for ", s]}
--
-- main = runScript runQuery mkItems
-- @
