Architecture
Protocols
Protocol | Description |
---|---|
Endpoint |
Represents any JSS object that is matched by a JSS endpoint. |
Identifiable |
Represents any JSS object that can be identified (either by ID or by name). |
Requestable |
Represents an object that can be used to perform requests with any JSS endpoint. |
Subset |
Represents any JSS object that contains a general object that can identify it. |
Requestable conformance
The class that conform to Requestable
exposes the following elements:
- An failable initializer that takes a JSON payload and return the instantiated object
- A function to return the JSON payload that represents the instance of the object
Classes
Class | Desscription |
---|---|
BaseObject |
Represents the common denominator between most of the JSS objects which must contains at least an identifier and a name properties. |
Building |
Represents a physical building. |
Computer |
Represents a computer managed by Jamf, contains the general / location / purchasing information about the hardware. |
ComputerCommand |
Represents a logical command that can be executed on any hardware element manageg by Jamf. |
ComputerConfigurationProfile |
Represents a logical configuration profile that can be applied to any computer managed by Jamf. |
ComputerGroup |
Represents a group of computers managed by Jamf, contains grouping information. |
Department |
Represents a physical department. |
DirectoryBinding |
Represents a logical binding between a computer and an active directory user. |
MobileDeviceConfigurationProfile |
Represents a logical configuration profile that can be applied to any mobile device managed by Jamf. |
MobileDevice |
Represents a mobile device managed by Jamf, contains the general information about the device. |
MobileDeviceGroup |
Represents a group of mobile devices managed by Jamf, contains grouping information. |
NetbootServer |
Represents a physical netboot server, contains information about the server and it's configuration. |
NetworkSegment |
Represents a physical network segment, contains information about the segment and it's configuration. |
Package |
Represents a logical application package, contains information about the application requirements and capabilities. |
Partition |
Represents a logical partition for an hard drive installed inside an hardware element managed by Jamf. |
Policy |
Reprents as logical policy that can be applied to any hardware element managed by Jamf. |
PreciseDate |
Represents a logical date within JSS api, contains 3 properties, the date itself, an epoch variant of the date and an UTC version of the date. |
Printer |
Represents a physical printer, contains information about the printer and it's configuration. |
Script |
Represents a logical script that can be executed on one (or more) machine managed by Jamf. |
Site |
Represents a physical location (building, office, etc.). |
SMTPServer |
Represents the physical SMTP server configuration. |
User |
Represents a Jamf user and contains the identification properties that are required to contact the actual user and identify the hardware devices assigned to him / her. |
Usage
Getting started
Playgrounds
To get a quick look on how you can use JamfKit
in your Jamf
related features, you can check the Playgrounds
included within the workspace.
Also check the unit tests, they should cover most of your needs.
Models
Most of the classes can be initialized with the bare minimul values, all the properties are then available for modification.
Requests
By adhering to the different CRUD protocols (Creatable
, Readable
, Updatable
& Deletable
), most of the JSS objects listed above are capable of supplying varying URLRequest
that should fit any needs.
You'll find below the basic functions to get URLRequest
:
Function | Type | HTTP Method | Example | Output |
---|---|---|---|---|
createRequest() |
instance |
POST |
building.createRequest() |
http://jss.host/jss/objects/1 |
readAllRequest() |
static |
GET |
Building.readAllRequest() |
http://jamf.com/jss/objects |
readRequest(identifier:) |
static |
GET |
Building.readRequest(identifier: "12345") |
http://jamf.com/jss/objects/1 |
readRequest() |
instance |
GET |
building.readRequest() |
http://jamf.com/jss/objects/1 |
updateRequest() |
instance |
PUT |
building.updateRequest() |
http://jamf.com/jss/objects/1 |
deleteRequest(identifier:) |
static |
DELETE |
Building.deleteRequest(identifier: "12345") |
http://jamf.com/jss/objects/1 |
deleteRequest() |
instance |
DELETE |
building.deleteRequest() |
http://jamf.com/jss/objects/1 |
Some objects will offer variants of those requests, like MobileDevice
with readRequestWithName()
or deleteRequestWithSerialNumber()
(with both static
and instance
variants).
