  • App preferences processing now using UserDefaults.
    • Preference domain is io.macdmins.Outset and follows standard macOS pref domain priority for reading and setting key values.
    • Migration from existing legacy preferences will be attempted but this is not fully tested
  • sha56 support
    • sha256sum property in preferences sets filename:hash key, value pairs. Presence of this property enforces all files to be process to have a matching hash.
    • --compute-sha <file> argument will generate expected hash values. using the all keyword instead of a filename will process all files in the /usr/local/outset directory structure as well as a formatted plist for use with an MDM
  • General refactor of function and variable names as well as cleanup of folder structure.
  • python 3 version moved to Legacy subfolder
  • App bundle uses the official icon
