Packer Plugin IPSW

The IPSW data-source plugin can be used with HashiCorp Packer to fetch information about Apple device firmware, for example for building macOS images with Tart.

Installation

To install this plugin, copy and paste this code into your Packer configuration . Then, run packer init.

packer {
  required_plugins {
    ipsw = {
      version = ">= 0.1.5"
      source  = "github.com/torarnv/ipsw"
    }
  }
}

Alternatively, you can use packer plugins install to manage installation of this plugin.

$ packer plugins install github.com/torarnv/ipsw

Usage

To fetch information about the latest macOS release:

data "ipsw" "macos" {
  os = "macOS"
  version = "^14"
  device = "VirtualMac2,1"
}

Then use the result via e.g. ${data.ipsw.macos.version} or ${data.ipsw.macos.url}.
