Updated for Catalina and mainly for Music Sequencing https://github.com/matthewcosgrove/macos-bootstrap

# STEP 1: Mount bootable USB and clean up disks
# IMPORTANT: Catalina now introduces a different approach to Disks/Volumes: https://eclecticlight.co/2019/12/17/how-clean-re-installs-change-in-catalina/
# Erase everything for a proper clean install and then create a new GUID Partition Apple_APFS volume (equivalent to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqfqcwmHowc&ab_channel=AjudaAqui)
# Can all be done through Disk Utility rather than terminal diskutil. You just need to create at least one volume otherwise the installer will not see the disk

# STEP 2: Install Catalina from bootable USB

# STEP 3: Download this gist from UI of GitHub "Download Zip
# mkdir "${HOME}"/bootstrap
# Copy the contents from unzipped folder into "${HOME}"/bootstrap

# STEP 4: Run this script
# USAGE: "${HOME}"/bootstrap/01_install_steps.sh
# WARNING: While the script runs, the ansible modules will cause pop-ups to requesting you to install the pre-requisite command line tools
# The following passwords are required during the script running
# BECOME password ---> Required by Ansible for installing and configuring MacOS and is the local macos account password
# mas_password ---> Required by Ansible for using the AppStore and is the password for your Apple ID
# the local MacOS password will be required at various stages while the script is running so needs to be monitored

set -euo pipefail

: "${APPLE_USER_EMAIL:? APPLE_USER_EMAIL must be set to your account for Apple for the mas module e.g. APPLE_USER_EMAIL=matthewmojuba@gmail.com. NOTE: The password for this Apple ID will need to be passed in when Ansible requests the mas_password }"

# While script is running open each app as installed to configure (i.e. Deal with pops ups to give permission for Apps to be opened, login etc)

# AFTER SCRIPT COMPLETES..

# INSTALL ROLAND DRIVERS
# .pkg files with README files are in Dropbox

# CONFIGURE DOCK
# See 02_configure_dock.sh

# OTHER INSTALLATIONS:

# NOTE: Now added ffmpeg to list for brew install, but not yet tested that as a replacement for setting up Audacity
# Install ffmpeg 64bit: https://lame.buanzo.org/#lameosx64bitdl
# e.g. https://lame.buanzo.org/ffmpeg_64bit_osx.pkg
# This will install the ffmpeg.55.64bit.dylib file in the system library at /Library/Application Support/audacity/libs/.
# On some Macs the process may look as though it has stalled on "Validating packages" - just be patient and wait for it to complete.

# Install Audacity >2.3.1 64bit: https://www.audacityteam.org/download/mac/ 

# Adobe Bridge for FILE MANAGEMENT - VIDEO etc
