URLs of Commonly Used Mac Apps for wget or cURL

Advertisement

Here are the URLs of some commonly used Mac Apps, so that the users can wget or cURL from command line. Apps include Skype, VLC like softwares. Our website is undergoing some front end development, for that reason, there are lesser posts updates. During the developmental phase, I needed to download cURL and found some interesting stuffs. One might want to read iTerm2, Homebrew and ZSH Installation on OS X for nice and updated command line for OS X.

 

URLs of Commonly Used Mac Apps for wget or cURL : Some Cheats

 

You probably know about cURL. cURL is installed on OS X by default. Alternatively, you can install wget. You can run man followed by the name to read manual. Thus man man is the manual of man itself, man curl is manual of cURL. From command line, we can mount any .dmg in this way :

Vim
1
hdiutil mount -nobrowse appname.dmg

We can copy the mounted App to Application folder (that is installing on Mac) by :

Vim
1
2
cp -R "/Volumes/App Name/App Name.app" /Applications
# App Name is variable

Unmounting and deletion of the .dmg can be done by :

Vim
1
hdiutil unmount "/Volumes/App Name" && rm -r appname.dmg

We can create a directory exclusively for this purpose :

mkdir DownloadedApps
# run the command to get full path
pwd
# change directory to that directory
cd DownloadedApps
# Things will remain clean

There is a web based service which can generate a bash script to auto download the apps. The bash script is like this :

Vim

10
#!/bin/bash
 
mkdir DownloadedApps
cd DownloadedApps
 
# Installation of Chrome
curl -L -O "https://dl.google.com/chrome/mac/stable/GGRO/googlechrome.dmg"
hdiutil mount -nobrowse googlechrome.dmg
cp -R "/Volumes/Google Chrome/Google Chrome.app" /Applications
hdiutil unmount "/Volumes/Google Chrome" && rm googlechrome.dmg

This is the thing, you actually need the URLs for easily download. Here are the URLs (only), you have copy the url and run curl or wget. You can manually go to the directory and double click to mount, drag to install. curl or wget are faster, resumable; better than browsers.
