Import your MacHeist serials to AppShelf

If you have purchased the latest MacHeist nano bundle, you might have noticed that there is no option this time to export as an AppShelf file. I felt a little guilty spamming my twitter followers to get my three free bonus apps (Airburst Extreme, Tracks, and Burning Monkey Solitaire), so to atone, I’m sharing a script that will translate your reciept into an AppShelf import file. Just save your receipt page from the browser, then pass the filename to this script as an argument:

RUBYOPT=rubygems ruby generate-appshelf.import.rb MacHeist-Serial.html

The script will create an import file named “nano-bundle-3.appshelf” in your current directory. Enjoy!

	#!/usr/bin/env ruby -wKU

	require 'nokogiri'
	require 'time'

	receipt_file = ARGV.shift \|\| ''
	if receipt_file.empty?
	puts "please point me to your receipt file"
	exit 1
	end

	doc = Nokogiri.HTML(IO.read(receipt_file))

	def write_keypair(filehandle, name, value, type='string')
	filehandle.puts "\t\t<key>#{name}</key>"
	filehandle.puts "\t\t<#{type}>#{value}</#{type}>"
	end

	purchasedDate = Time.now.utc.iso8601

	File.open("nano-bundle-3.appshelf", "w") do \|out\|
	out.puts %Q{<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
	<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
	<plist version="1.0">
	<array>
	}

	(doc / "div.license").each do \|license\|
	link = (license / "h4 a").first
	next unless link

	out.puts "\t<dict>"
	write_keypair(out, :appName, link.text)
	write_keypair(out, :details, '')
	# directoryName
	write_keypair(out, :homepage, link.attribute('href'))
	write_keypair(out, :price, '$19.95 (Bundle)')
	write_keypair(out, :purchasedDate, purchasedDate, 'date')
	# purchasedVersion

	labels = (license / "dl dt").map{\|e\| e.text }
	values = (license / "dl dd").map{\|e\| e.text }
	registrationData = Hash[*labels.zip(values).flatten]

	write_keypair(out, :registrationEmail, registrationData['Email:'])
	write_keypair(out, :registrationName, registrationData['Name:'])
	write_keypair(out, :registrationSerialKey, registrationData['Serial:'])

	write_keypair(out, :wherePurchased, 'http://www.macheist.com')
	out.puts "\t</dict>"
	end

	out.puts %Q{</array>\n</plist>}
	end
