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)
-
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:
