also using a brew file would be nice: https://mattstauffer.co/blog/setting-up-a-new-os-x-development-machine-part-2-global-package-managers#creating-your-brewfile

I use loops with a param list for this to make it a bit more concise: https://github.com/trevordmiller/settings/blob/master/bootstrap.sh

https://github.com/mas-cli/mas

Google has changed the name of google-drive to google-backup-and-sync.

I wanted to echo @lizenas suggestion for mas-cli/mas - @rodionovd has done some amazing work and mas has never failed me for a single app from the App Store - even apps that I bought offline and then upgraded through the app store!

I'd add that if you're also considering adding Mac System level configuration to your provisioning and setup scripts in the future, you may want to also consider guarinogabriel/mac-cli

From @guarinogabriel's README :

 macOS command line tools for developers

⭐️ Now with modularity and plugins! You can check the plugins folder: /mac-cli/plugins

Contributions to add new plugins and keep improving the existing ones are welcome and very much appreciated!

The ultimate tool for developers to manage their Mac. It provides a huge set of command line commands that automate the usage of >your macOS system. When you run a function, the executed command is displayed and that helps you memorize each of the Utilities > for future usage.

Gabriel (like me) does a lot of Magento project work so there are a few utilities available as optional modules focused around that platform...as well as more generally to web development on a Mac, but these are all optional during the installation.

The updated modular plugin system is awesome, and though I haven't had a chance to contribute to it yet, if you DO manage to find some system or admin functionality that hasn't yet been implemented, it's pretty easy to use the existing modules as a template and add whatever you might need to the project!

Thanks for sharing your script :)

Throwing my two cents in ...

I typically run two scripts (not sure why) but here they are: -

1. Installs Brew + cask: https://bitbucket.org/xebufrog/automation/src/61bb87f6873c106c572ed0ca6ea5a5b4912516a3/install_brew.sh?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default

2. Installs common apps: https://bitbucket.org/xebufrog/automation/src/61bb87f6873c106c572ed0ca6ea5a5b4912516a3/install_common_apps.sh?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default

I recently came across this: https://github.com/mas-cli/mas

Hope there is something there y'all find useful. Whoops - just noticed the person above already recommended the 3rd point!

great 👍

Nice ! What about using mas-cli to automate AppStore installs ?! (I've never used it personally but it seems pretty straightforward)

My cask cant' find wunderlist

Hello @t-io, You can automate Mac App Store applications installation using mas-cli

# MAS-cli installation 
brew cask install mas

#Search for the unique application code from the Mac App Store 
mas search Evernote 
> 406056744  Evernote (7.10)

# Install Evernote from Mac App Store 
mas install 406056744

% mas lucky evernote

is actually useful, but counterintuitive.

% mas lucky Xcode

actually does the "right" thing, where

% mas search Xcode

returns a swathe of results that makes automating it non trivial...
