Feature request: permit downloading all macos ipsws for a single --device

[glen-mac]

Hey! Just something that would be of use:

$ ipsw download ipsw --macos --device Macmini9,1                    
                                                                                                                                         
x  you must also supply a --version OR a --build (or use --latest)

Would it be possible for this to download all ipsws for that specific device?

Also would it be possible to add the --dyld flag to download just the DSC?

[blacktop]

I might be mistaken but I think ALL macOS IPSWs support ALL M1 macOS devices?

[blacktop]

Downloading just the DSC is on the roadmap, once I fold https://github.com/blacktop/go-apfs into ipsw

[glen-mac]

They seem to be split on ipsw.me for w/e reason - because that was my understanding as well. In any case pulling them all down (and all the DSC, or kernelcaches) would be a really useful feature!

[blacktop]

yeah I just checked and the ipsw.me guy is just being explicit, but all the links are the same for the different devices.

You CAN right now download just the kernels for all the IPSWs.

DSC is more complicated because it lives inside the APFS.dmg inside the IPSW zip

[blacktop]

I added in the latest release the ability to:

❯ ipsw download ipsw --device Macmini9,1 -V
