关于applescript:使用AppleScript批量删除Mac中的信息

波及工具
1 mac 自带 app：“脚本编辑器”2 原生利用「Accessibility Inspector（需装置 Xcode）」用以定位指标控件的类型，不便在打印的子控件中查找

开始：
模仿操作步骤：

关上 message app

tell application "Messages" to activate
复制代码

操作须要在 System Events 下执行，所以须要 tell 一下

tell application "Messages" to activate
tell application "System Events"

end tell
复制代码

找到“信息”app

tell application "Messages" to activate
tell application "System Events"
    tell process "Messages"

    end tell
end tell
复制代码

查找选中要删除的短信

经验性法则：脚本运行后果中的所有 UI 元素是按软件界面中从上到下，从左到右的顺序排列的。

联合 Accessibility Inspector，查找要删除的短信的 path

留神，大家的 path 可能不一样，比我有两个顶置音讯所以地位 path 如下

tell application "Messages" to activate
tell application "System Events"
    tell process "Messages"
        
        click UI element 4 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 2 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 2 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of window 1
        
    end tell
end tell    
复制代码

用“信息”app 的顶部菜单栏实现，触发删除操作

查找顶部菜单栏中的删除按钮

delay 给出零碎响应和 UI 事件的工夫

tell application "Messages" to activate
tell application "System Events"
    tell process "Messages"
        
        click UI element 4 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 2 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 2 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of window 1
        delay 0.2
        tell menu 1 of menu bar item "文件" of menu bar 1
            entire contents
        end tell
        
    end tell
end tell    
复制代码

找到指标的 path：menu item “ 删除对话…” of menu “ 文件 ” of menu bar item “ 文件 ” of menu bar 1

click 它，弹出删除确认框

弹出删除确认框
如果不相熟 Mac 端的开发控件，可通过 Accessibility Inspector，点击右上角聚焦，选中控件，查看控件信息

弹出框为 sheet 类型，在新 window 中

tell application "Messages" to activate
tell application "System Events"
    tell process "Messages"
        
        click UI element 4 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 2 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 2 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of group 1 of window 1
        delay 0.2
        click menu item "删除对话…" of menu 1 of menu bar item "文件" of menu bar 1
        delay 0.2
        tell sheet 1 of window 1
            entire contents
        end tell
        
    end tell
end tell    
复制代码
