PackageChanger

Using Ruby-JSS to work with the JSS API, PackageChange lists the policies in which a package is used and gives the ability to change this package for a new one.

Installation

$ gem install PackageChanger

Usage

Once installed, create a configuration file in /etc/packagechanger.conf

You can copy a sample file from the data folder inside the installation path of PackageChanger and fill the JSS URL, User and Password.

Once configured, you can use it:

packagechanger [--silent] [--policy PolicyID] --old OldPackageName --new NewPackageName || --list ListedPackage

The PolicyID can be either the numeric ID of a JSS policy, or its name between quotes.

Run the first execution with sudo, or change the mode of the file /private/var/log/packagechanger.log so all users can write to it.
