[Feature Request] Option to download the complete OS Installer App

Open chriswayg opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

@AngeloAvv, beautifully done app, which works very nicely! - I was hoping, that I could replace tools such as GitHub - corpnewt/gibMacOS: Py2/py3 script that can download macOS components direct from Apple

or the macOS installer script installinstallmacos.py from the Dortania Guide:

mkdir -p ~/macOS-installer && cd ~/macOS-installer && curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/munki/macadmin-scripts/main/installinstallmacos.py > installinstallmacos.py && sudo python installinstallmacos.py

This script can create disk images containing macOS Installer applications available via Apple's softwareupdate catalogs. From here: GitHub - munki/macadmin-scripts: Scripts of possible interest to macOS admins

Since I have rarely had the need to download recovery images, but regularly need to download the macOS Installer apps, here is my request:

Please add the option to download the complete OS Installer App with your GUI

  • packaged in a DMG
  • named with the exact macOS version and build number (as is done in the installinstallmacos.py)
  • option to display a progress log

Is it possible to add this feature?

Anyway, thank for your contribution. This app is amazing!
