Installomator Mate 1.3.3 – Bugfixes and one new feature

I had planned to release this version before we ended 2025, but because of life and work I get to celebrate the (happy) new year with an update.

Nothing fancy, I’ve just taken care of some of the bugs that I introduced in the last version, and some that have been with us since the beginning. A few properties that haven’t been in use for a while were also retired, and if the stars align that could reduce memory impact.

This fall I’ve been using Installomator a lot in Jamf Pro, Jamf School and Intune, and Installomator Mate has been a time saver for me, but bouncing between projects I realised that it was missing a method to clear all the selected labels. So that’s the new feature for 1.3.3.

I hope you’ll enjoy this update.

Happy new year! 🥂

  1. Or if you just try something simliar to this:

    #!/bin/sh
    /usr/local/bin/dialog --listitem "1Password" --commandfile /tmp/dialog_cmd.log &
    sudo /usr/local/Installomator/Installomator.sh 1password8 DEBUG=0 DIALOG_CMD_FILE=/tmp/dialog_cmd.log DIALOG_LIST_ITEM_NAME="1Password"

    The important thing is to make sure Dialog is launched using the list view with a commandfile, and that Installomator is using the same file to update the progress.

  2. Hi Olof, your solution works, thanks:

    /usr/local/bin/dialog –listitem ”KeepassXC” –commandfile /var/tmp/dialog.log & sudo /usr/local/Installomator/Installomator.sh keepassxc DEBUG=0 PROMPT_TIMEOUT=900 LOGO=ws1 DIALOG_CMD_FILE=/var/tmp/dialog.log DIALOG_LIST_ITEM_NAME=”KeePassXC”

    And if i use the settings of installomator mate, it does not work:
    /usr/local/Installomator/Installomator.sh keepassxc DEBUG=0 LOGGING=DEBUG PROMPT_TIMEOUT=900 NOTIFY_DIALOG=1 LOGO=ws1 INTERUPT_DND=no DIALOG_CMD_FILE=/var/tmp/dialog.log DIALOG_LIST_ITEM_NAME=”KeePassXC”

  3. Hi Olaf, the Apple notification that you see after installing for example Tor Browser: Tor Browser update complete! Installed Tor Browser, version 15.0.8

  4. I have modified your script based on your tip so that you only receive the Apple notification that the app with the version number has been installed. I have removed the dialog app. Personally, I think you should use the Apple notification instead of a dialog. How can you script an, for example, Apple notification message if an app already has the latest version?

  5. Hi Olof,

    I’m having trouble installing the Citrix Workspace app today. I get an error message saying “no such file or directory”.

    Also, the Installomator app version 1.3.3 doesn’t always display the full app list after a search. It either shows an empty or blank list. This problem started after I upgraded to macOS Tahoe 2.6.5.1.

    Thanks,
    John.

  6. Hi John,
    I suspect that is an issue with the label in Installomator 10.8. If you check the download url on the release branch, It seems to be gated behind a login: https://github.com/Installomator/Installomator/blob/release/fragments/labels/citrixworkspace.sh

    In the main branch, the url is updated: https://github.com/Installomator/Installomator/blob/main/fragments/labels/citrixworkspace.sh

    So I would suggest that you use the compiled 10.9 script from the main branch, but that means you can’t use the simple script I provide in the Mate, since that will fetch the packaged 10.8.

    And if you have more questions regarding installomator, I would suggest joining the Installomator channel in Macadmins Slack.

  7. Hi Olof,

    Thanks for your tip, but it doesn’t work yet. I’ve noticed that Citrix has changed their URL for the second time with a new version and is withdrawing it again. As a result, the URL no longer works. And in combination with Workspace ONE UEM and Installmator, there are a number of dependencies where things can go wrong: the vendor’s URL address, the Installmator script, the Installmator Mate app, and Workspace ONE UEM. It is taking me too much time to tackle the problem. There is also a dependency with GitHub developers, meaning i don’t have time to wait for a solution. I have personally decided to stop using Installmator and go back to preparing macOS install packages. And this year, Omnissa itself is releasing an Enterprise App Repository for the macOS platform. That will save us a lot of time regarding the creation of install packages. Thanks for your help and time.
