Introduction

Campies determines your Mac model and downloads the appropriate BootCamp package for you. It was inspired by brigadier <https://github.com/timsutton/brigadier>_ but attempts to be a cleaner and is a far simpler implementation.

Quick Start

  1. Dowload the campies script

    .. code:: bash

    curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fgimian/campies/master/campies.py
    chmod +x campies.py
    
  2. Run the find command with no arguments to obtain the appropriate URL that you'll need to download to get BootCamp drivers for your machine:

    .. code:: bash

    ./campies.py find
    
  3. Download the URL provided using your browser or a download manager such as DownloadThemAll <http://www.downthemall.net/>_ for Firefox.

  4. Run the build command to extract the drivers from the package and prepare them as a ZIP file for use on Windows.

    .. code:: bash

    ./campies.py build ~/Downloads/BootCampESD.pkg
    

    Note: Please replace the path of BootCampESD.pkg file if required.

  5. You'll now be given the location of your BootCamp ZIP file which may be used in Windows to install your BootCamp drivers.

You may see detailed help for each command using the --help argument if you wish to override your Mac model and such.
