And it gives you great ways to find and share your favorites. It works with iCloud to let you browse seamlessly across all your devices. Built-in privacy features are stronger than ever. Safari for Mac is faster and more energy efficient than other browsers, so sites are more responsive and your notebook battery lasts longer between charges. I saved it as an application and used BetterTouchTool (from ) to assign it to a hotkey in Safari for easy batch downloading.The best browser for your Mac is the one that comes with your Mac. If preserve_clipboard is true then set the clipboard to original Keystroke "v" using command down -paste list Keystroke "l" using ĭelay 0.5 -short delay to allow download window/pop over to open before pasting list. (Make sure to enable assistive devices.) tell application "Finder" to set the clipboard to "" Open the Safari download manager through GUI scripting and paste the URL. (Google for the actual script.) tell application "Safari"ĭo JavaScript " alert('AppleScript successfully executed.') " in document 1Ģ. Alternatively, can I configure Safari to not try to open certain file types so that maybe I just loop through the file URLs in the document before showing the page?ĪppleScript itself cannot force Safari to download files.Ĭurrently I can imagine two 'hacky' alternatives:ġ.
Can I specify where it saves the file? Or can it only go to the Downloads folder?.How do I tell application "Safari" to download a file?.Other suggestions are to call command line tools to download the file, but the issue here is apparently that the user has some cookie(s) in Safari that authorize them to the server resource, so the command-line tools will just get an error. I need the file to be downloaded to the file system.Įverything I find on Google mentions something called "URL Access Scripting" but when I use that the AppleScript editor asks me to select what application it is, which I don't seem to have (or don't know where it is). It's a file that Safari thinks it understands, so it just tries to open it directly. (Just something that someone will double-click to run which will open Safari and show them a web page while initiating some downloads.) I can set the URL of the document with AppleScript, but that doesn't download the file. For reasons I won't really go into, I need to write something in AppleScript which will download some files specifically through Safari.
