Patch reporting simplified

Patcher leverages the Jamf Pro API to fetch patch management data and generate comprehensive reports in both Excel and PDF formats. It simplifies tracking and reporting on software update compliance across macOS devices managed through Jamf Pro.

Project documentation can now be found on our project homepage. All content from our project wiki has been migrated to the new homepage. We are continuously updating references to the new homepage and regularly improving the documentation.

Assuming 'AnyOrg' is the name of your organization, an exported PDF could look like this:

Install via pip:

pip install patcherctl

Why patcherctl? The pip package is called patcherctl because the name patcher was already taken on PyPI. Despite this, the project itself is referred to as Patcher

After installation, you can generate reports by running the main script. You can specify the output directory for the reports and choose to generate PDF reports alongside Excel files.

patcherctl --path '/path/to/output/directory' [--pdf]
