New Features

  • Contains one item: "Reload Payload Manifests" which reloads all payload manifests on disk. Useful when creating manifests.

Export Menu Item

  • An "Export…" menu item has been added to the File menu to allow exporting a profile when in the editing window of the same profile.

New Payloads

  • menu.nomad.NoMADPro (macOS Preference)
  • com.microsoft.office (macOS Preference)
  • com.github.ants-framework (macOS Preference) (Thanks to @knightsc)

Updated Payloads

com.apple.general

  • PayloadDisplayName and PayloadDescription are now enabled by default.
  • The key DurationUntilRemoval is now properly shown in the interface.
  • Updated name and description for the key PayloadRemovalDisallowed to make it's purpose much more clear.

com.trusourcelabs.NoMAD (macOS Preference)

  • Moved keys in the interface to more logical locations and updated descriptions and defaults.

ManagedInstalls (Munki) (macOS Preference)

  • Updated defaults and added more placeholders and value unit descriptions.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a bug introduced in beta 2 where arrays were sometimes not exported correctly.
  • Automatically generated Integer popUpButtons saved the value in the wrong type. (#48)
  • In cases where two payload keys had conditions targeting each other, an incorrect value for one of the keys could be cached.
  • Exclude conditionals sometimes made incorrect exclusions when a target was not present in the exported profile.
    (This resulted in that a key that was required if a condition were true, might not be enabled as it should)
  • Using "Save As…" when saving profiles had unintended consequences. "Save As…" has been removed from the File menu. (#48)
  • Fixed number text fields when added as input type different than export type to work with default- and placeholder values. And setting the correct value.
  • Fixed incorrect display of float numbers when set as an integer input type.
  • Fixed incorrect indentations when a dictionary title was hidden.
  • ...and many minor bug fixes.

Known Issues

  • The export panel's accessory view is not shown in 10.12.
    (Export still works, just no changes can be made in the export panel).

  • When saving a profile for the first time, on rare occasions it might not save and won't be recognized after a restart.
    (Never found a way to replicate, only rare reports)

Contribute

There are many ways to contribute to this project. Here are a few listed below:

  • Test and report bugs or incorrect behavior both in the UI and in the exported profiles.
  • Language and spelling errors. (English is not my native language).
  • Missing payloads or payload keys. (Contribute to the ProfileManifests repository to improve the manifests used to define all payloads, keys and their interactions.)
  • Add feature requests or suggestions by opening an issue in this repository.
