Overview

This class represents a Computer in the JSS.

Adding Computers to the JSS

At the moment, this class cannot be used to add new Computers to the JSS. Please use other methods (like the Recon App or QuickAdd package)

Editing values

Any data that arrives in the JSS via an “inventory update” (a.k.a. ‘recon’) cannot be modified through this class, or the API.

Data that can be modified are:

  • Management Account (see #set_management_to)

  • asset_tag

  • barcodes 1 and 2

  • ip_address

  • udid

  • mac_address & alt_mac_address

  • serial_number Note: Even tho the webUI doesn’t allow editing the serial_number, the API does, and it can be useful for dealing with duplicates that arise when a logic-board swap causes a new computer record. to be created.

  • location data via the Locatable module

  • purchasing data via the Purchasable module

  • Extension Attribute values via the Extendable module Note: as with other ‘recon’ generated values, Ext. Attrs. populated by scripts cannot be modified via the API. (the change would be overwritten the next time the machine did a recon)

After making any changes, you must call #update to send those changes to the server.

MDM Commands

See the MDM mixin module for Class and Instance methods for sending MDM commands to computers.

To send MDM commands without fetching Computer instances, use the class methods, which can take multiple computer identifiers at once.

NOTE: the poorly named ‘UnmanageDevice’ mdm command is implemented as MDM#remove_mdm_profile (which is its name in the webUI) as well as MDM#unmanage_device. Calling that method will NOT fully unmanage a computer from the JSS’s point of view, it will just remove the mdm management profile from the machine and all configuration profiles that were installed via the JSS. Those profiles may be re-installed automatically later if the computer is still in scope for them

To properly unmanage a computer, use the #make_unmanaged Instance method which removes the mdm profile, but also makes the machine unmanged by the JSS, setting the management acct to nil, and requring re-enrollment.

Management History & Logs

Computer Management History and logs can now be retrieved both from a Computer instance, and directly via class methods without fetching an instance. This is handled by the mixed-in ManagementHistory module, Q.V. for details.

Appication Usage History

Computer Instances now have access to their Application Usage history via the #application_usage method. Call the method with a start-date value (either a String or a Time object) and an optional end-date value. If you omite the end-date, the start-date is used and you’ll see usage for just that day.

See #application_usage for details about the data returned.

NOTE: your JSS must be gathering Appication Usage data in order for any data to be returned, and the usage history will only go back as far as your setting for flushing of Application Usage Logs.

Management Data

The computers ‘manamgement data’, as presented on the ‘Management’ tab of the computer’s detail page in the JSS web UI, is available from the #management_data method. That method may return a large dataset, unless a subset is requested.

Subsets of management data have their own methods, which are faster and only retrieve the subset requested. See #smart_groups, #static_groups, #policies, #configuration_profiles, #ebooks, #app_store_apps, #restricted_software, and #patch_titles

The subset methods can take an ‘only:’ parameter, which is a symbol specifying the value you care to see. For example #smart_groups returns an array of hashes, one for each smart_group the computer is in. Those hashes have two keys, :name, and :id. However if you only want an array of names, you can call ‘smart_groups only: :name`

When any of the manamgement data methods are used the first time, the data is read from the API and cached internally, the cache is then used for all future calls. To re-read the data from the API and re-cache it, provide ‘refresh: true` to any of the manamgement data methods.

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(method, *args, &block) ⇒ Object

Make all the keys of the @hardware hash available as top-level methods on the Computer instance.

This is done by catching method_missing and seeing if the method exists as key of @hardware, and if so, retuning that value, if not, passing on the method_missing call. So:

comp.processor_type

is now the same as:

comp.hardware[:processor_type]

The reason for using ‘method_missing` rather than looping through the speed. When instantiating lots of computers, defining the methods for each one, when those methods may not be needed, just slows things down. This way, they’re only used when needed.

This method may be expanded in the future to handle other ad-hoc, top-level methods.

Class Method Details

.all(refresh = false, api: nil, cnx: Jamf.cnx) ⇒ Array<Hash{:name=>String, :id=> Integer}>

A larger set of info about the computers in the JSS.

Casper 9.4 introduced the API Resource /computers/subset/basic that returns an array of hashes with more data than just /computers/ (which was just :name and :id). Similar to /mobildevices/, this new list includes :udid, :serial_number, and :mac_address, as well as :model, :managed, :building, :department, :username, and :report_date

Because this requires a different, unusual, resource path, we’re completely re-defining APIObject.all for Jamf::Computer. Hopefully some day the original /computers/ resource will be updated to return this data.

Parameters:

  • refresh (Boolean) (defaults to: false)

    should the data be re-queried from the API?

  • cnx (Jamf::Connection) (defaults to: Jamf.cnx)

    an API connection to use for the query. Defaults to the corrently active API. See Jamf::Connection

.application_installs(appname, fields: [], version: nil, ids_only: false, api: nil, cnx: Jamf.cnx) ⇒ Array<Integer>, ...

Query the JSS for computers with some app installed. An app name is required as the first parameter.

If no other parameters are given, returns a Hash, one key per version of the app. For each version there is an array of Hashes, one Hash for each computer with that version. The sub hashes contain keys for the computer’s identifiers, i.e. :name, :id, :udid, :serial_number, :mac_address.

If one or more inventory fields are provided in the ‘fields’ parameter, each computer’s hash also has keys and values for those fields if they exist in the JSS. These fields are those available in the display options for Advanced Computer Searches (including extention attribute names) and their names are case-sensitive, so ‘Username’, not ‘username’

If a specific version is provided in the ‘version’ parameter, only computers containing that version of the app are returned as an Array of Hashes.

If the ids_only parameter is truthy, an Array of JSS id numbers for computers with this app is returned. In this case the ‘fields’ parameter is ignored, however the ‘version’ parameters is still valid and will restrict the list to those computer ids with that version installed.

This method implements the ‘computerapplications’ API endpoint.

NOTE: To see all the apps installed on a specific computer, fetch the Jamf::Computer instance and call its #apps method.

Parameters:

  • appname (String)

    The name of the app to look for, e.g. ‘Transmogrifier.app’

  • fields (String, Array<String>) (defaults to: [])

    Additional ‘inventory fields’ to return with each computer’s data

  • version (String) (defaults to: nil)

    Limit search to a specific version of the app

  • ids_only (Boolean) (defaults to: false)

    Just return an array of the id’s of computers found with this query. Defaults to false

  • cnx (Jamf::Connection) (defaults to: Jamf.cnx)

    The API connection to use for the query. default: Jamf.cnx

Returns:

  • (Array<Integer>)

    When ids_only == true, the ids of computers with the app installed (possibly limited to version)

  • (Array<Hash>)

    When version is provided, An Array of Hashes, one for each computer, with keys for identifiers plus any requested fields.

  • (Hash{String => Array<Hash>})

    When no version is provided, a Hash with keys for each version, pointing to an array of Hashes, one for each computer with that version. Each computer’s Hash has keys for identifiers plus any requested fields.

Returns:

  • (Hash{Date=>Array<Hash>})

    A Hash with keys (Date instances) for each day in the range.

    Each hash value contains an Array of apps used on that day.

    Each item in the array is a hash of data about the app. Those hash keys are:

    :name => String, the name of the app
    :version => String ,the version of the app
    :foreground => Integer, the minutes it was in the foreground

.management_data(ident, subset: nil, only: nil, api: nil, cnx: Jamf.cnx) ⇒ Hash, Array

The ‘computer management’ data for a given computer by id, looked up on the fly.

Without specifying a subset:, the entire dataset is returned as a hash of arrays, one per subset

If a subset is given then only that array is returned, and it contains hashes with data about each item (usually :name and :id)

If the only: param is provided with a subset, it is used as a hash-key to map the array to just those values, so subset: :smart_groups, only: :name will return an array of names of smartgroups that contain the computer.

Parameters:

  • ident (Integer, String)

    An identifier (id, name, serialnumber, macadress or udid) of the computer for which to retrieve Application Usage

  • subset (Symbol) (defaults to: nil)

    Fetch only a subset of data, as an array. must be one of the symbols in MGMT_DATA_SUBSETS

#set_ext_attr(ea_name, value, validate_popup_choice: true, refresh: false) ⇒ void Originally defined in module Extendable

This method returns an undefined value.

Set the value of an extension attribute

The new value is validated based on the data type of the Ext. Attrib:

  • If the ext. attrib. is defined with a data type of Integer/Number, the value must be an Integer.

  • If defined with a data type of Date, the value will be parsed as a timestamp, and parsing may raise an exception. Dates can’t be blank.

  • If defined wth data type of String, ‘to_s` will be called on the value.

By default, the full EA definition object is fetched to see if the EA’s input type is ‘popup menu’, and if so, the new value must be one of the defined popup choices, or blank.

The EA definitions used for popup validation are cached, so we don’t have to reach out to the server every time. If you expect the definition to have changed since it was cached, provide a truthy value to the refresh: parameter

To bypass popup validation complepletely, provide a falsey value to the validate_popup_choice: parameter. WARNING: beware that your value is the correct type and format, or you might get errors when saving back to the API.

Note that while the Jamf Pro Web interface does not allow editing the values of Extension Attributes populated by Scripts or LDAP, the API does allow it. Bear in mind however that those values will be reset again at the next recon.

Parameters:

  • name (String)

    the name of the extension attribute to set

  • value (String, Time, Integer)

    the new value for the extension attribute for this user

  • validate_popup_choice (Boolean) (defaults to: true)

    validate the new value against the E.A. definition. Defaults to true.

  • refresh (Boolean) (defaults to: false)

    Re-read the ext. attrib definition from the API, for popup validation.

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

#set_management_to(name, password) ⇒ void Also known as: make_managed
