Xolo Help Output

Eventually I'll write proper online documentation.

But in the meantime, here's all the possible help output from xadm xoloserver and xolo

I'll try to keep these pages updated as the output itself is updated.

xadm

This is the Xolo admin tool, used for managing titles and versions via Xolo. It is a command-line tool, which can be used in a terminal session via CLI options or an interactive menu. It can also be used with CLI options in automated processes like CI/CD tasks and build-scripts.

It is also used by server-admins to perform some server-level tasks on-demand.

Here is the 'help' output for xadm itself (including global options for all sub-commands) as well as all possible sub-commands.

xolo

This is the client-side tool for installing, uninstalling and related tasks on managed Macs. Unlike xadm and xoloserver, which are large complex tools written in ruby, xolo itself is a zsh script, basically a glorified wrapper around the jamf policy command.

xoloserver

This is the https server that ties everything together, acting as the communicator between xadm, Jamf Pro, and the Title Editor, and maintaining some of its own info about titles and versions in xolo.

The output of xoloserver config --help provides full documentation for all server configuration options.
