Bash script to retrieve, unzip, install, and cleanup a subset of Adobe's Creative Cloud software. There's also a serializer script which activates an installation.

Open to members of New York University's: Center for Brain Imaging, Center for Neural Science, and Department of Psychology on the Meyer network.

Written and tested to run on currently-supported versions of macOS.

masOS: curl --remote-name https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marshki/adobe_installer/master/src/adobe_installer.sh && caffeinate sudo bash adobe_installer.sh

For sysadmins who want to replicate this process, we assume that you:

• are affiliated with an institution that has a valid license agreement with Adobe;

• can access a networked file server; and

• have an Adboe installer for `macOS' clients.

On your local client, compress the Adobe installer with, e.g.:

zip -r mac-acrobatdc-spr18.zip acrobat

and place the file on your web server for distribution.

For sysadmin AND end users:

Pre-flight checklist (the script will check for the following conditions):

• root privileges

• adequate free disk space (10 GBs)

• curl

• access to the Meyer network.

Liftoff:

Grab the script from /src in this repository, then call the script (caffeinate will keep the computer awake during the installation):

caffeinate sudo bash adobe_installer.sh. From there, follow the on-screen prompt:
