autopkg on Os X Server 10.8.5

autopkg and munki on Os X Server 10.8.5

prereq

• git
• munki_repo
• munkitools (latest)

install autopkg

install pkg from here
https://github.com/autopkg/autopkg/releases

Configure autopkg

setup munki_repo

defaults write com.github.autopkg MUNKI_REPO /path/to/munki_repo

defaults read com.github.autopkg MUNKI_REPO
/Volumes/DEPLOY_IMAGES/DEPLOYBUILDS_DEV/MUNKI_REPO_MASTER

When following wiki, all goes in your home directory, there are other options with defaults :

defaults write com.github.autopkg CACHE_DIR ~/Library/AutoPkg/Cache

defaults write com.github.autopkg RECIPE_SEARCH_DIRS ~/Library/AutoPkg/Recipes

defaults write com.github.autopkg RECIPE_OVERRIDE_DIRS ~/Library/AutoPkg/RecipeOverrides

defaults write com.github.autopkg RECIPE_REPO_DIR ~/Library/AutoPkg/RecipeRepos

I choosed to trick and put everything in /Library/autopkg. I then did symlinks in my home directory

ln -s /Library/AutoPkg/Cache ~/Library/AutoPkg/Cache
ln -s /Library/AutoPkg/RecipeRepos ~/Library/AutoPkg/RecipeRepos

Add recipes

autopkg repo-add http://github.com/autopkg/recipes.git

autopkg list-recipes

autopkg info Firefox.munki

autopkg run -v Firefox.munki.recipe

autopkg run -v Firefox.munki.recipe MakeCatalogs.munki

Note :

Adding MakeCatalogs.munki at the end of the autopkg run will make the munki catalogs…

autopkg run -v  AdobeFlashPlayer.munki Cyberduck.munki Skype.munki TextWrangler.munki TheUnarchiver.munki MakeCatalogs.munki
