Customize
Copy your custom packages, profiles, and scripts to their respective working directories in the included custom-outset
directory, and remove the example scripts.
Make sure any scripts you are adding have the executable bit. You may have to run chmod +x ./path/to/script.sh
to set this. The following makefile package building process should ensure your scripts are owned by root (UID 0) when the payload installs them to the disk (specific group membership is not required/checked, but outset does confirm the writable bit is NOT set on your scripts).
Note: The login context runs as the user, so you won't be able to install pkgs by putting them in login-once
or login-every
. If you cannot use the boot contexts for pkgs for any reason, add your packages, profiles, or scripts to the login-privileged-once
or login-privileged-every
directories, and they will be processed as root when the user logs in.
After you've added your custom packages, profiles, and scripts, and removed the example scripts, change directories to custom-outset
and open the Makefile in a Text Editor.
Edit the top 4 lines to change them from..
PKGTITLE="outset-custom"
PKGVERSION="1.0.0"
PKGID=com.github.outset.custom
PROJECT="outset-custom"
..to your own information:
PKGTITLE="super-scripts"
PKGVERSION="1.1.0"
PKGID=com.github.super.scripts
PROJECT="super-scripts"
Save the Makefile and then use it to package up your files:
$ cd ./name-of-custom-outset
$ make pkg
This will then display the following output:
rm -f ./outset*.pkg
rm -f ./pkgroot/usr/local/outset/*/*.pyc
pkgbuild --root pkgroot --identifier com.github.outset.custom --version "1.0.0" --ownership recommended ./"outset-custom"-"1.0.0".pkg
pkgbuild: Inferring bundle components from contents of pkgroot
pkgbuild: Wrote package to ./outset-custom-1.0.0.pkg
You will see a package called outset-custom-{VersionNumber}.pkg
where "VersionNumber" is what is defined in the Makefile.
You can use this package with a management suite such as Munki or Jamf.
