Overview

Recipe Robot is the easiest way to create new AutoPkg recipes for simple Mac apps. It consists of two components:

  • A [[Python script](Python Script Usage.md)__ that takes various types of input and automatically outputs AutoPkg recipes.

  • A [[native Mac app](Mac App Usage.md)__ that puts a friendly face on the Python script and makes it as simple as dragging and dropping. You can download the latest version of the app here.

This two-pronged approach allows AutoPkg novices to easily create recipes that follow community-accepted guidelines, and still provides a command-line tool for more advanced AutoPkg users. Also, using Python for program logic fosters community contribution to this project.
