This PR coincides with:
macOS 10.14.x and earlier do not support the
-json
flag when using system_profiler so switching to-xml
and grabbing serial and UUID with regex has worked for me on 10.14.6. Additionally, when building the binary with macOS 13, the binary will not execute on macOS 10.14.x (and earlier) -- building on macOS 11 resolves this and does not cause any issues with current macOS builds that I am aware of.Parsing XML in Go was bothersome... though perhaps may be the more "proper" solution instead of regex. Alternatively, ioreg can be used to grab both serial and uuid:
ioreg -c IOPlatformExpertDevice -d 2 | awk -F\" '/IOPlatformSerialNumber/{print $(NF-1)}'
ioreg -c IOPlatformExpertDevice -d 2 | awk -F\" '/IOPlatformUUID/{print $(NF-1)}'
