I have used munki-staging.py and a Trello board to shift packages around from the testing environment into production in a mostly manual process. Since then I have been thinking about how to integrate the staging into that CI process. https://6fx.eu/ci-that-autopkg/ Wed, 02 May 2018 10:03:27 +0100 https://6fx.eu/ci-that-autopkg/ In my infrastructure here, I am using munki to take care of all my software distribution needs. The majority of software packages is built with the excellent Autopkg on a dedicated MacMini. Until now this was a manually triggered process. I maintained a list of recipes and from time to time (usually daily) I would run something like autopkg run --recipe-list=my_recipes.list. Afterwards I would manually rsync the local munki repository onto the distribution infrastructure.
