AutoDMG is a macOS application that takes a macOS installer (10.10 or newer) and builds a never-booted system image suitable for deployment with asr-based imaging tools like Imagr, DeployStudio, LANrev, and Jamf Pro. It is written in Python with PyObjC and provides a GUI plus command-line usage for Mac administrators.

Use cases

  • create a deployable system image from a macOS installer
  • build never-booted macOS images for imaging tools like DeployStudio or Jamf Pro
  • prepare golden images for Mac fleet deployment
  • automate macOS system image creation for enterprise MacAdmins
  • update a base OS X image with the latest installer
  • script macOS image building from the command line

When to choose

  • you are a Mac administrator deploying macOS with asr-based imaging tools such as Imagr, DeployStudio, LANrev, or Jamf Pro
  • you need a clean, never-booted system image built directly from an official macOS installer
  • you want a GUI with command-line automation for image creation on macOS 10.10+

When to avoid

  • you deploy Macs with modern workflows like MDM and DEP/Apple Configurator rather than imaging
  • you need to build images of operating systems other than macOS
  • you require actively developed software with recent releases and ongoing support
