You can leverage the Custom Software feature in Addigy to upload the desired Font and Image files you necessary for deployment needs for macOS devices.
TABLE OF CONTENTS
Deploying Fonts
-
Copy all of your fonts to a folder on your computer called “Fonts” and zip (compress) the folder
(Note: Make sure to rename the .zip if the file name is the same as any of the fonts. Not doing so will result in an error when deploying.) - Create a Custom Software item from the Policies > Custom Software section.
- Upload the compressed file you intend to install.
- Use the following script as part of the Custom Software Installation Script to move the font file to it's the device's font directory
/usr/bin/unzip -o "fonts.zip"
mv "/Library/Addigy/ansible/packages/FontDirectory (1.0.0)/fonts/"* "/Library/Fonts"
Note: Replace "FontDirectory (1.0.0)" with the name of you chose for the Smart Software item and it's associated version.
Example:
Deploying Images
- Create a Custom Software item from the Policies > Custom Software section.
- Upload the image file(s) you intend to use.
- Use the following script to move the images to the directory on the device you intend users to find the images on.
Note: replace Image_File with the name of the file you are using and ImageDirectory (1.0.0) with the name of the software item and it's associated version:
mv '/Library/Addigy/ansible/packages/ImageDirectory (1.0.0)/Image_File' '/Name/Of/Directory/Goes/Here'
(add additional lines of the script if you would like to copy multiple images)
Example:
Applying Images As Wallpapers
If you would like to actually set the Desktop image, you would need to create a custom MDM configuration using the free mac App store application known as iMazing Profile Editor.
After installing the application, you can use it configure a Desktop Picture payload where you specify the path to the image that will be used:
Once you have configured and saved the profile, head back to Addigy and upload the file by going to Policies > Catalog > MDM Configuration > Add Configuration + > Custom configuration:
Once you have uploaded and created the config, you can apply the profile to the policy to deploy or apply it to individual devices via their GoLive > Deployments > Profiles (inc. MDM) section.
