My Albert extensions

A collection of various Python extensions I wrote for the Albert launcher.

This repository contains various Python extensions I wrote for the great Albert keyboard launcher.

To install the extensions, run the following command:

git clone https://github.com/baltpeter/albert-extensions "~/.local/share/albert/org.albert.extension.python/modules"

Included extensions

Password generator

Generating a 30 character password

A very simple password generator. To run it, just enter pw followed by the length of the password you want to generate (e.g. pw 64).
If no length is given, a 25 character password will be generated.

The generated passwords are deliberately only alphanumeric and don't contain any special characters.

DNS lookup

Looking up DNS records

A wrapper for the dig command. To run it, enter dig followed by the domain (or IP address) you want to query (e.g. dig datarequests.org). The DNS records for your query will be shown to you. You can copy the value of any line.

To query a specific record type, add it after the domain (e.g. dig bn.al mx).

Temporary Firefox instance

A quick way to launch a Firefox instance with a temporary profile. Useful for testing things in a clean profile. Run using fx.
