macserial
WARNING: macserial database is currently in process of being synced with MacInfoPkg database.
macserial is a tool that obtains and decodes Mac serial number and board identifier to provide more information about the production of your hardware. Works as a decent companion to Apple Check Coverage and Apple Specs portal. Check the format description for more details.
Should be built with a compiler supporting C99. Prebuilt binaries are available for macOS 10.4 and higher.
Run with -h argument to see all available arguments.
Improving database
To add a new hardware board, please create a file in DataBase
directory, and then run ./update_generated.py. It should not
output anything and return zero code.
To install PyYAML on macOS use the following commands:
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py -o get-pip.py
sudo -H python get-pip.py
sudo -H pip install pyyaml
