Update Bonjour Browser (http://www.tildesoft.com) with new services
You can download an automatic patching program from the releases page. This expects to be run against a clean version of Bonjour Browser, so either run any earlier patch versions again to revert their changes, or download it fresh.
You can then download the zip file, right-click the application and choose "Open", and the patcher will locate Bonjour Browser and apply the patch!
If you're suspicious of the automatic patcher or generally feel okay with using the command line, you can do the following:
- Open a terminal to the directory in which Bonjour Browser is installed
- Run
curl https://github.com/raw/ticky/bonjour-browser-patcher/develop/bonjour-browser.patch -sSf | patch -p1 -i /path/to/bonjour-browser.patch
This adds a bunch of services which have popped up on Apple and other devices since the last update to Bonjour Browser (2006!).
Eventually, I hope to convert this from being a raw patch file to being a list of services people can update and edit, but for now patches must be applied to... the patch file.
The patch is built by mounting the disk image of the unpatched Bonjour Browser version, whilst having the modified version in ~/Applications
.
The command to create the patch is then as follows:
(
set -euo pipefail
cd ~/Applications
diff \
--unified \
--recursive \
--ignore-blank-lines \
"/Volumes/Bonjour Browser/Bonjour Browser.app/Contents/Resources" \
"./Bonjour Browser.app/Contents/Resources"
) > bonjour-browser.patch
The patcher is written in AppleScript, and relies upon the patch
utility being available on the user's computer. You can build a copy of it by checking out the repository and running build.sh
. The application will be created in an Applications folder under the repository.
This is in no way affiliated with the original author of Bonjour Browser and is in no way supported by them.
