end

.new_cfpropertylist(plist_opts) ⇒ Object

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

.open_file_with_args(file, args) ⇒ Object

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Helper method to assist in reading a file. It’s its own method for stubbing purposes

Parameters:

  • args (String) —

    Extra file operation mode information to use (defaults to read-only mode ‘r’) This is the standard mechanism Ruby uses in the IO class, and therefore encoding may be explicitly like fmode : encoding or fmode : “BOM|UTF-*” for example, a:ASCII or w+:UTF-8

# File 'lib/puppet/util/plist.rb', line 89

def open_file_with_args(file, args)
  File.open(file, args).read
end

.parse_plist(plist_data, file_path = '') ⇒ Object

Read plist text using the CFPropertyList gem.

.plist_xml_doctype ⇒ Object

Defines a default doctype string that should be at the top of most plist files. Useful if we need to modify an invalid doctype string in memory. In version 10.9 and lower of OS X the plist at /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.ntp.ntpd.plist had an invalid doctype string. This corrects for that.

.read_file_with_offset(file_path, offset) ⇒ Object

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

end

.read_plist_file(file_path) ⇒ Object
