Notes

This is a version of Outset created by GitHub Actions.
Outset.app has been signed and notarized. The package has been signed, notarized and stapled.

Main Change

Preferences that affect all users should now be recorded in /Library/Preferences/io.macadmins.Outset.plist. Previously these were in /var/root/Library/Preferences/io.macadmins.Outset.plist. Outset could always read from the /Library/Preferences/ plist but not write to it but it now does this by default. Functionally this change shouldn't have any major effects.

⚠️ NOTE : Outset 4.0.4 will attempt to move preferences from the old plist to the new one when it runs. If you have settings in both, this may overwrite the previous setting.

Other Changes

  • adds LaunchOnlyOnce to login-window.plist
  • adds marketing model to debug output (apple silicon only)
  • --compute-sha is now --checksum
  • --add-overide and --remove-overide are now --add-override and --remove-override
  • Fixed an issue where the wrong prefs were being read and resulting in an incorrect comparison

renamed arguments are still accessible under their old values for compatibility but are a hidden in the --help view

Changelog

  • be776a8 - Fix typo in README.md
  • 09b1f03 - add marketing model to debug output
  • de634e3 - add LaunchOnlyOnce key to login-window plist. Fixes a behaviour where login window tasks were executing continuously.
  • 2009177 - update version
  • 0e5167d - Merge pull request #30 from bennettp123/patch-1
  • e902c37 - Fixed up some listing rules after installing SwiftLint on my new dev box refactor sha256sum to checksum removed old preference definitions, some of which were being used in-code. Since these were never being populated they would not evaluate and conditional code was not being run as a result.
  • 038af56 - update writePreferences so when running as root it will write to /Library/Preferences instead of /var/root/Library/Preferences. This fixes a bunch of expected behaviour like using --add-ignored-user and having it correctly apply to all users on the system and not just when run in a user context.
  • c151750 - some more refactoring for shasum -> checksum rename added some additional debug logging updated loadPreferences function to force load from /Library/Preferences/io.macadmins.Outset.plist if running as root update loginOnce processing to pass in any overrides. also added some extra debug logging to inform if the console user is in the ignored list
  • 4082a65 - removed unneeded debug lines
  • 6c59f5e - Updated spelling on overrides - fixes #31
  • e6d5139 - fix error cause by unwrapping nil value in an optional also keeping the linter happy.
  • 721d871 - Fix read and write of run-once record to it writes to /Library/Preferences and not to /var/root/Library/Preferences Added logic to migrateLegacyPreferences if they exist (issue in initial 4.0 to 4.0.2 using UserDefaults which results in preferences being written to /var/root/Library/Preferences which is problematic for settings that all users might need to access.
  • 008229a - Merge pull request #32 from macadmins/development
