SourceForge processor downloading wrong file

I used Recipe Robot 1.1.1 to create a recipe for downloading a project from SourceForge. According to the messages output by RR it successfully downloaded a real disk image as per the log below.

You've now created 25 recipes with Recipe Robot. Amazing.

I added the download and munki recipes to my repo, updated my repo in AutoPkg, created a matching override and tried running this.

Unfortunately I then got an error as follows.

Error running recipes

Use of undefined key in variable substitution: u'version'

mounting /Users/itsupport/Library/AutoPkg/Cache/local.munki. Monitoring Tools.T.R.A.M.S/downloads/%NAME%-%version%.dmg failed: hdiutil: attach failed - image not recognized

Further examination clearly shows what is going wrong is that using this recipe AutoPkg is actually downloading the MD5 file and not the 'real' disk image. An MD5 of course cannot be mounted as a disk image and hence the recipe fails as above.

The relevant section of the autopkg reciept file is as follows.

Good catch! Could you try changing a section of your download recipe from this:

			<key>SOURCEFORGE_FILE_PATTERN</key>
			<string>\.dmg</string>

to this:

			<key>SOURCEFORGE_FILE_PATTERN</key>
			<string>\.dmg$</string>

and let me know whether that works?

Answer 2 · 2019-02-27T17:17:18.000Z

It fails differently now, it comes back with the following.

	<dict>
		<key>RecipeError</key>
		<string>Error in local.munki. Monitoring Tools.T.R.A.M.S: Processor: com.github.jessepeterson.munki.GrandPerspective/SourceForgeURLProvider: Error: nothing to repeat</string>
	</dict>

I've done a bit of work on this, and found two main issues:

The file regex was wrong because SourceForge downloads are all suffixed with /download. Adjusting the SOURCEFORGE_FILE_PATTERN to \.dmg\/download$ appears to resolve that issue reliably (8835819).
This specific SourceForge project is not signed and the pkg doesn't contain any apps (see screenshot below), so Recipe Robot can't find any version information. This should be a pretty rare case, but just to be safe I added some warnings to the output for these situations (308aa95). It's likely you'll need to make some manual modifications to the recipes produced by Recipe Robot, including but not limited to:
- Adding some kind of Versioner processor (possibly this one) into the download recipe (and potentially FlatPkgUnpacker to get to the actual binary file).
- Replacing AppPkgCreator in the pkg recipe with PkgCopier, in order to grab the installer from the downloaded disk image.
- Switching the parent on the munki recipe to pkg instead of download, and adjusting pkginfo to include considerations like blocking_applications.
- Removing the AppDmgVersioner processor from the Munki recipe.

I'm not going to spend more time on this particular use case, because the SMART Monitoring Tools is quite far from Recipe Robot's target scope of basic Mac apps. But I hope this gives you a head start on those recipes. Thanks!

@homebysix
Many thanks for your looking in to this and your suggestions. I believe I have now managed to get a working recipe together which even manages to produce a sensible version number. It seems without the auto-generated processor step for DMGVersioner the munki recipe falls back to examining the installer package and finds inside that the PackageInfo file and from that gets a version number.

Your regex for the SourceForge download itself works perfectly.

If your interested you can see my (working) recipes at https://github.com/jelockwood/recipes and we are of course talking about the S.M.A.R.T Monitoring ones.
