Here are a bunch of Mac terminal commands sorted into general categories. I have intentionally omitted long bash scripts and AppleScripts and focussed instead on small useful commands that can be plugged into bigger scripts or used on their own enjoy! Terminal & Shell Basics cmd+n – Open a new Shell in a new window. Run Scripts with a GUI With previous versions of Python, there is a peculiarity of Mac OS X that you should keep in mind: programs communicating with the window manager called Aqua (in other words, anything that has a GUI) must have a special way to run. Scripts for macOS provides macOS scripting services. No task is too small or too large for us. We make coding scripts look easy! We deliver top quality scripts based on your needs with code so easy to.
I'm a longtime Windows and Linux user and have had some weird experiences writing shell scripts on Mac OS X. In particular, I can write the scripts just fine and run them from the terminal, but every time I try running one from a Finder window it always executes from the user's home directory rather than the directory in which the script lives.

This is an extension attribute script to determine if the user assigned to the computer is a member of a given AD group or groups.
Fruit smoothie slot. In the example below, the script will return a 'Yes' result if the user to which the computer is assigned in Jamf Pro is a member of the groups 'ADGroupX' or 'ADGroupY'.

The script will…
- Get the computer's serial number
- Pull the computer record via the Jamf Pro API
- Harvest the contents of the 'username' field
- Get the domain via dscl (computer must be bound to AD)
- Determine if 'username' is a member of 'ADGroupX' or 'ADGroupY'
This script can certainly be cleaned up a bit but does the job effectively.
The script can also be found on GitHub below.
