dockutil 1.1 released
Posted: February 5, 2012 Filed under: Deployment, dockutil, Mac OS X, Mac OS X Server, Python, Scripting 7 Comments »Version 1.1 of dockutil is out:
- fixes many issues with paths (should now work with Default User Template and other paths with spaces)
- adds option to not restart the dock (–no-restart)
- fixes issue where item would be added multiple times (use –replacing to update an existing item)
- resolves deprecation warnings
- adds option to remove all items (–remove all)
- fixes issue with removals when a url exists in a dock
- adds option –version to output version
Great job, we will try it to modify User Template (we used dockutil 1.0)
Just a question, dockutil 1.0 was in /sbin, so you can call dockutil directly from Terminal. But dockutil 1.1 is installed in /usr/local/bin and to use it, we have to precise the path. Is it possible to move dockutil 1.1 in /sbin, like dockutil 1.0 ?
Many thanks for you job !

Feel free to move it, repackage it, or symlink it. I typically put these types of tools in /usr/local/bin myself, but I guess that not everyone has that in their path.
Thanks for the update!
Do you have a donate button somewhere? Or a project you would like some $ support sent to on your behalf?
Thank you! I’ll see about getting a donate button. I appreciate it.

Thanks. The name is Kyle though
Great tool, ever thought about expanding your arsenal and creating a similar tool for the troublesome com.apple.sidebarlists.plist ?
