Deploying Enscape for Mac On mass

Enscape Host Applications Enscape for ArchiCAD
1

Hey,

I’m trying to deploy enscape on mass but the way enscape works doesn’t lend well to how our deployment workflow usually works. We use Jamf Cloud for our mdm and usually we would repackage the installed app into a pkg then deploy it. If we do it that way archicad would not recognise the .bundle file is in the Library/ChaosGroup/Enscape location.

I have also tried copying the whole Enscape folder to Archicad Addon folder and it did recognise Enscape. However when you try rendering the scene, there will be an error that pops up.

There is a reference of using terminal to Uninstall Enscape and it looks like it uses the Installer app. I don’t know what the correct commands are or if it works via terminal.

Is there a way to deploy Enscape on mass via pkg files or terminal?

mdm: Jamf Cloud

devices: 200+ MacOS devices

Software: Archicad and rhino

Thanks

I managed to get a silent install of Enscape for Mac working with the following:

“/Volumes/Enscape Installer/Enscape Installer.app/Contents/MacOS/Enscape.Installer” -gui=0 -acceptEULA -quiet=1 -auto

However, this only installs the plugin without licensing it, and the license still must be entered manually. Chaos support indicated that there is not yet a way to automate the licensing :frowning:

How did you acutally handle the deployment? Did you simply copy the installer to the endpoints as part of a package and then run the command as a Files and Processes payload?

Furthermore, was licensing ever resolved?
