Class: Jamf::Script

Inherits:

Includes:
Categorizable, Creatable, Updatable
Defined in:
lib/jamf/api/classic/api_objects/script.rb

Overview

A Script in the JSS.

As of Casper 9.4, the script contents as stored in the database are accessible via the API

According to Jamf as of early 2021, it has been some years now since its been possible to store script contents on a dist. point - they are all always in the database.

Use the #run method to run the script on the local machine.

#run(**opts) ⇒ Array<(Integer,String)>

Run this script on the current machine.

If the script code is available in the #script_contents attribute, then that code is saved to a tmp file, and executed. The tmp file is deleted immediately after running

After the script runs, this method returns a two-item Array.

  • the first item is an Integer, the exit status of the script itself (0 means success)

  • the second item is a String, the output (stdout + stderr) of the script.

The exit status of the jamf binary process will be available as a Process::Status object in $? immediately after running.

Parameters:

  • opts (Hash) —

    the options for running the script

Options Hash (**opts):

  • :target (String, Pathname) —

    the ‘target drive’, passed to the script as the first commandline option. Defaults to ‘/’

  • :computer_name (String) —

    the name of the computer, passed to the script as the second commandline option. Defaults to the name of the current machine

  • :username (String) —

    the username to be passed to the script as the third commandline option. Defaults to the current console user.

  • :p4..:p11 (String) —

    the values to be passed as the 4th - 11th commandline params Script params 1, 2, & 3 are the target:, computer_name: and username: params

  • :show_output (Boolean) —
