Look at Sparkle URL to offer direct download for updates from munki #353

Hello,

Most third part applications distributed outside the MacAppStore use Sparkle 
for update management.

It's basically a XML file published on a specific and constant URL specified in 
the Info.plist file.

This XML file contain the URL, the version number and the dsa signature for the 
last version available.

It could be nice if munki could be able to look at this informations and check 
if updates are available (and of course, offer to download it and load it 
directly on the admin request).

Best regards,
Y.

Have you seen AutoPkg? http://autopkg.github.io/autopkg/

AutoPkg works really well with Munki. No need to duplicate its functionality.
