Here are the URLs of some commonly used Mac Apps, so that the users can wget or cURL from command line. Apps include Skype, VLC like softwares. Our website is undergoing some front end development, for that reason, there are lesser posts updates. During the developmental phase, I needed to download cURL and found some interesting stuffs. One might want to read iTerm2, Homebrew and ZSH Installation on OS X for nice and updated command line for OS X.
URLs of Commonly Used Mac Apps for wget or cURL : Some Cheats
You probably know about cURL. cURL is installed on OS X by default. Alternatively, you can install wget. You can run man
followed by the name to read manual. Thus man man
is the manual of man
itself, man curl
is manual of cURL. From command line, we can mount any .dmg
in this way :
1 | hdiutil mount -nobrowse appname.dmg |
We can copy the mounted App to Application folder (that is installing on Mac) by :
---
1 2 | cp -R "/Volumes/App Name/App Name.app" /Applications # App Name is variable |
Unmounting and deletion of the .dmg
can be done by :
1 | hdiutil unmount "/Volumes/App Name" && rm -r appname.dmg |
We can create a directory exclusively for this purpose :
1 2 3 4 5 6 | mkdir DownloadedApps # run the command to get full path pwd # change directory to that directory cd DownloadedApps # Things will remain clean |
URLs of Commonly Used Mac Apps for wget or cURL
There is a web based service which can generate a bash script to auto download the apps. The bash script is like this :
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 | #!/bin/bash mkdir DownloadedApps cd DownloadedApps # Installation of Chrome curl -L -O "https://dl.google.com/chrome/mac/stable/GGRO/googlechrome.dmg" hdiutil mount -nobrowse googlechrome.dmg cp -R "/Volumes/Google Chrome/Google Chrome.app" /Applications hdiutil unmount "/Volumes/Google Chrome" && rm googlechrome.dmg |
This is the thing, you actually need the URLs for easily download. Here are the URLs (only), you have copy the url and run curl or wget. You can manually go to the directory and double click to mount, drag to install. curl or wget are faster, resumable; better than browsers.
