I have been working on a "Mac Rollout Project". After I run the Macs through the Apple setup, I have a list of .DMG / Applications that I have to install. There is no particular order that the .DMG / Applications need to follow while being installed. It's just tedious.

Is there a way that I create a script/pkg/sudo on the Mac, That will allow me to automate this process?

(I have all of the applications that I need on an external hard drive)

  • when you say install a dmg file do you mean what happens when you double click the dmg? – Natsfan Apr 01 '19 at 21:05
  • Hey jmh, How are you? Yes. I mean "what happens when you double click the dmg" Thank you so much for looking into this – bsmithmj Apr 02 '19 at 00:19
  • Opening (mounting) a .dmg image is easy enough with AppleScript. You can even obtain its contents, such as an .app file. However, that's where automation ends: you can't readily automate moving the .app file into /Applications due to macOS's quarantining. I believe you can turn of these security features, but I'm not sure how wise that would be. – CJK Apr 02 '19 at 08:02
