Problem: I want to make a shell script that exports all contacts inside the macOS's address book to a specific folder (for backup purposes). To do that, I want to use a simple automator workflow or apple script. However, I need to know when that apple script / automator workflow has finished so that I can proceed my shell script. I want my shell script to wait for the apple script to export all cards.
Question Is there a way inside an apple script or automator workflow to report back to a shell script that it has finished?
Pseudo shell script:
!/bin/zsh
do
## nothing
while [applescript does not return true]
## proceed shell script
(sorry for the maybe wrong shell script syntax).
