I would like to install the dmg java package in my MAC OS through the terminal
I tried using this command:
sudo installer -package jdk-7u51-macos-x64.dmg -target /
But I receive this error:
installer: Error the package path specified was invalid: 'jdk-7u51-macos-x64.dmg'
Try this:
MOUNTDIR=$(echo `hdiutil mount jdk-7u51-macos-x64.dmg | tail -1 \
| awk '{$1=$2=""; print $0}'` | xargs -0 echo) \
&& sudo installer -pkg "${MOUNTDIR}/"*.pkg -target /
Let dmgFilePath be the variable containing the path of your dmg file.
Then you can try this :
$ MOUNTDEV=$(hdiutil mount $dmgFilePath | awk '/dev.disk/{print$1}')
$ MOUNTDIR="$(mount | grep $MOUNTDEV | awk '{$1=$2="";sub(" [(].*","");sub("^ ","");print}')"
$ sudo installer -pkg "${MOUNTDIR}/"*.pkg -target /
$ hdiutil unmount "$MOUNTDIR"
Tested on macOS High Sierra even if "$MOUNTDIR" contains one space.
I ran into the exact same problem and found the root cause.
if you trying to install a package where the installer has no permission to access the directory you will get that weird error.
i.e
osascript -e {'do shell script "installer -allowUntrusted -pkg ~/Download/OpenJDK8U-jdk_x64_mac_hotspot_8u275b01.pkg -target /tmp/ " with administrator privileges'}
1:150: execution error: installer: Error - the package path specified was invalid: '/Users/user-x/Download/OpenJDK8U-jdk_x64_mac_hotspot_8u275b01.pkg'. (1)
either by moving the package into /tmp/ or change the directory permission so applescript or installer command can access the file.
osascript -e {'do shell script "installer -allowUntrusted -pkg /tmp/OpenJDK8U-jdk_x64_mac_hotspot_8u275b01.pkg -target /tmp/ " with administrator privileges'}
installer: The upgrade was successful.K
Thank Mateusz Szlosek,
For me :
$ MOUNTDIR=$(echo `hdiutil mount /Users/valorisa/Downloads/VirtualBox\ 5.0.14\ Build\ 105127
/VirtualBox-5.0.14-105127-OSX.dmg | tail -1 | awk '{$1=$2=""; print $0}'` | xargs -0 echo)
&& sudo installer -pkg "${MOUNTDIR}/"*.pkg -target /
Password:
installer: Package name is Oracle VM VirtualBox
installer: Upgrading at base path /
installer: The upgrade was successful.

I'm trying to use a program that uses Linux versions of other programs.
I ran this in bash:
c3dpath=$( command -v c3d )
if [[ -z "${c3dpath}" ]]; then
echo "Command c3d was not found. Downloading and installing software to ${SCRIPTPATH}/depends/c3d. Path will be added to PATH environment variable."
mkdir -p "${SCRIPTPATH}/depends/c3d/"
wget https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/c3d/c3d/Nightly/c3d-nightly-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz && \
tar -xzvf c3d-nightly-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz && mv c3d-1.1.0-Linux-x86_64/* "${SCRIPTPATH}/depends/c3d/" && \
rm c3d-nightly-Linux-x86_64.tar.gz
export PATH="${SCRIPTPATH}/depends/c3d/c3d-1.1.0-Linux-x86_64/bin/:$PATH"
fi
But it downloads the linux version of the program files into my directory -- yielding the error:
{..omitted}/HippMapp3r/depends/c3d/bin/c3d: cannot execute binary file
Return Code: 126
I understand in order for this to work on my computer, I need to use the version for Mac OS, however, I stuck on how one might go about "unarchiving" the files contained within a .dmg file so I can access c3d in bin.
I edited it to this, but I understand I cannot use the tar -xzvf command in this context -- is there an equivalent to tar -xzvf to "unpack" dmg files?
c3dpath=$( command -v c3d )
if [[ -z "${c3dpath}" ]]; then
echo "Command c3d was not found. Downloading and installing software to ${SCRIPTPATH}/depends/c3d. Path will be added to PATH environment variable."
mkdir -p "${SCRIPTPATH}/depends/c3d/"
wget https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/c3d/c3d/Nightly/c3d-nightly-MacOS-x86_64.dmg && \
tar -xzvf c3d-nightly-MacOS-x86_64.dmg * "${SCRIPTPATH}/depends/c3d/" && \
rm c3d-nightly-MacOS-x86_64.dmg
export PATH="${SCRIPTPATH}/depends/c3d/c3d-nightly-MacOS-x86_64/bin/:$PATH"

Try using 7-zip. You can install it on a Mac with homebrew using:
brew install p7zip
Then run it with:
7z
Please see comment by #StefanSchmidt about a possible alternative package.
First you have to mount the DMG file.
command: hdiutil mount test.dmg
I need a specific version of protocol buffer which is 3.14.0 on apt its not available like this
sudo apt install -y protobuf-compiler = 3.14.0
and If I follow these steps by binary :
$ PB_REL="https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases"
$ curl -LO $PB_REL/download/v3.14.0/protoc-3.14.0-linux-x86_64.zip
then
unzip protoc-3.14.0-linux-x86_64.zip -d $HOME/.local
then
$ export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin"
from this source
and it's not getting install when I do protoc --version I am getting this error
bash: /usr/bin/protoc: No such file or directory
I think Because /usr/bin/protoc doesn't exist. When you unzipped you got folder named protoc-3.14.0.
which is /usr/bin/protoc-3.14.0
try doing this
PROTOC_ZIP=protoc-3.14.0-linux-x86_64.zip
curl -OL https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases/download/v3.14.0/$PROTOC_ZIP
sudo unzip -o $PROTOC_ZIP -d /usr/local bin/protoc
ref: http://google.github.io/proto-lens/installing-protoc.html
Please check out the following steps to Install protoc on Ubundu, Run the commands 1 to 4 on terminal. Then 5 and 6 to finalize the settings.
Get the latest version tag of protoc release and assign it to variable:
1.
PROTOC_VERSION=$(curl -s "https://api.github.com/repos/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases/latest" | grep -Po '"tag_name": "v\K[0-9.]+')
curl -Lo protoc.zip "https://github.com/protocolbuffers/protobuf/releases/latest/download/protoc-${PROTOC_VERSION}-linux-x86_64.zip"
Run the following command to extract executable file from a ZIP archive:
sudo unzip -q protoc.zip bin/protoc -d /usr/local
Set execute permission:
sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/protoc
Now protoc command is available for all users as a system-wide command.
We can now check protoc version:
protoc --version
Remove unnecessary ZIP archive:
rm -rf protoc.zip
Here is the part of the makefile that is giving me issues:
-#mv -f -t ./ $(LIBPATH)/userfiles/*
When I run the makefile on Ubuntu it works fine however when running on my Mac I get the following error:
mv: illegal option -- t usage: mv [-f | -i | -n] [-v] source target
mv [-f | -i | -n] [-v] source ... directory
The -t flag is not defined in the man pages of my mac so I'm wondering how I can get around this.
Just put the destination at the end like how mv is normally used:
-#mv -f $(LIBPATH)/userfiles/* .
You are allowed to have multiple sources (such as the expanded wildcard here). The last argument is the destination. The -t flag is just a way to change this ordering if you have to for some reason, and (as you discovered) it is not always available.
Install coreutils by typing the following command in the terminal:
brew install coreutils
Commands also provided by macOS and the commands dir, dircolors, vdir have been installed with the prefix "g".
If you need to use these commands with their normal names, you can add a "gnubin" directory to your PATH with:
PATH="$(brew --prefix)/opt/coreutils/libexec/gnubin:$PATH"

coreutils - Homebrew Formulae
I have an app that depends on Mono Framwork.Im trying to create a shell script that will download and install Mono Framework on the users Mac with minimal interaction.I cannot find any resources related to this.The tool that i will be using is this http://s.sudre.free.fr/Software/Packages/about.html
This tool has an option to insert pre and post install scripts so i need to check if Mono is installed otherwise need to download and install.
I can use this to check for Mono
#!/bin/sh
#get the bundle's MacOS directory full path
DIR=$(cd "$(dirname "$0")"; pwd)
#change these values to match your app
EXE_PATH="$DIR\appname.exe"
PROCESS_NAME=appname
APPNAME="AppName"
#set up environment
MONO_FRAMEWORK_PATH=/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current
export DYLD_FALLBACK_LIBRARY_PATH="$DIR:$MONO_FRAMEWORK_PATH/lib:/lib:/usr/lib"
export PATH="$MONO_FRAMEWORK_PATH/bin:$PATH"
#mono version check
REQUIRED_MAJOR=2
REQUIRED_MINOR=4
VERSION_TITLE="Cannot launch $APPNAME"
VERSION_MSG="$APPNAME requires the Mono Framework version $REQUIRED_MAJOR.$REQUIRED_MINOR or later."
DOWNLOAD_URL="http://www.go-mono.com/mono-downloads/download.html"
MONO_VERSION="$(mono --version | grep 'Mono JIT compiler version ' | cut -f5 -d\ )"
MONO_VERSION_MAJOR="$(echo $MONO_VERSION | cut -f1 -d.)"
MONO_VERSION_MINOR="$(echo $MONO_VERSION | cut -f2 -d.)"
if [ -z "$MONO_VERSION" ] \
|| [ $MONO_VERSION_MAJOR -lt $REQUIRED_MAJOR ] \
|| [ $MONO_VERSION_MAJOR -eq $REQUIRED_MAJOR -a $MONO_VERSION_MINOR -lt $REQUIRED_MINOR ]
then
osascript \
-e "set question to display dialog \"$VERSION_MSG\" with title \"$VERSION_TITLE\" buttons {\"Cancel\", \"Download...\"} default button 2" \
-e "if button returned of question is equal to \"Download...\" then open location \"$DOWNLOAD_URL\""
echo "$VERSION_TITLE"
echo "$VERSION_MSG"
exit 1
fi
#get an exec command that will work on the current OS version
OSX_VERSION=$(uname -r | cut -f1 -d.)
if [ $OSX_VERSION -lt 9 ]; then # If OSX version is 10.4
MONO_EXEC="exec mono"
else
MONO_EXEC="exec -a \"$PROCESS_NAME\" mono"
fi
#create log file directory if it doesn't exist
LOG_FILE="$HOME/Library/Logs/$APPNAME/$APPNAME.log"
mkdir -p "`dirname \"$LOG_FILE\"`"
#run app using mono
$MONO_EXEC $MONO_OPTIONS "$EXE_PATH" $* 2>&1 1> "$LOG_FILE"
But how to download and install.
Downloading/Install via CLI:
Lastest Mono version example:
MDK_PKG_ID="com.xamarin.mono-MDK.pkg"
MDK_PKG="mdk-latest.pkg"
MDK_URL="http://download.mono-project.com/archive/${MDK_PKG}"
curl -O ${MDK_URL}
sudo installer -pkg ${MDK_PKG} -target /
Specific Mono version example:
MDK_PKG_ID="com.xamarin.mono-MDK.pkg"
MDK_PKG = "MonoFramework-MDK-4.2.1.macos10.xamarin.x86.pkg"
MDK_URL = "http://download.mono-project.com/archive/4.2.1//macos-10-x86/#{MDK_PKG}"
curl -O ${MDK_URL}
sudo installer -pkg ${MDK_PKG} -target /
Does anyone know an easy way to set up OSX dev machines to install xcode and set up a clean dev environment every morning at 5am?
I was looking at using something like boxen, but the problem I was facing is they all need Xcode installed to work.
You can actually automate a lot of the pre-requites for Boxen with scripts, such as automating the Xcode installation step with a script something like this:
#!/bin/sh
# Get and install Xcode CLI tools
OSX_VERS=$(sw_vers -productVersion | awk -F "." '{print $2}')
# on 10.9+, we can leverage SUS to get the latest CLI tools
if [ "$OSX_VERS" -ge 9 ]; then
# create the placeholder file that's checked by CLI updates' .dist code
# in Apple's SUS catalog
touch /tmp/.com.apple.dt.CommandLineTools.installondemand.in-progress
# find the CLI Tools update
PROD=$(softwareupdate -l | grep "\*.*Command Line" | head -n 1 | awk -F"*" '{print $2}' | sed -e 's/^ *//' | tr -d '\n')
# install it
softwareupdate -i "$PROD" -v
# on 10.7/10.8, we instead download from public download URLs, which can be found in
# the dvtdownloadableindex:
# https://devimages.apple.com.edgekey.net/downloads/xcode/simulators/index-3905972D-B609-49CE-8D06-51ADC78E07BC.dvtdownloadableindex
