I currently have a bash script to add printers for teachers, but would like to make it more user friendly.
I'd like to use applescript or automator to make a more friendly GUI. Also does anyone know how to insert a users pin into the account track settings of a printer? so far my script looks like:
I have a function setup for each of the choices that installs the appropriate printer. Again what I'd like to do is make checkboxes or something so they can install multiple printers, along with having text box for them to input their pin# used for the copier, and take that pin and input it to the account track settings of the printer and save it.
1 ACCEPTED SOLUTION
I wrote this a super long time ago when I worked at Jamf. It was a POC to do a pop up to have users select their site to enroll into via an Applescript.
#!/bin/bash
# set multiple site enrollment via one quick add package
getSite() {
theSite=$(osascript <<AppleScript
set mySites to {"Minneapolis", "Cupertino", "New York", "Hong Kong", "Amsterdam", "Eau Claire"}
set selectedSite to {choose from list mySites}
AppleScript
echo "${theSite}"
)
}
getSite
echo "${theSite}"
# now select invitation codes
# put site names with spaces in single quotes
case ${theSite} in

exit 0You could just modify your code to do the Applescript part. Note I have only tested this locally not via the JSS or anything.
Here is what it looks like:
This is what I have so far, which works fine. I'm new to the job (started in April) and I'm pretty sure the guy before me didn't use self service to do it for a reason. Probably because you have to enter their account information manually anyway. (Most of our teachers wouldn't be able to handle that, to them updating their java is a hard task even with self service doing all the work)
