Chef/Deprecations/MacosUserdefaultsGlobalProperty

The Cookstyle cops department: Chef/Deprecations

The global property in the macos_userdefaults resource was deprecated in Chef Infra Client 16.3. This property was never properly implemented and caused failures under many conditions. Omitting the domain property will now set global defaults.

Examples

incorrect

macos_userdefaults 'set a value' do
  global true
  key 'key'
  value 'value'
end

correct

macos_userdefaults 'set a value' do
  key 'key'
  value 'value'
end
