ISO to PKG Converter

The ISO to PKG Converter ingests a source ISO image and outputs a macOS PKG installer. It preserves file hierarchy and permissions while offering packaging options such as compression, architecture targeting, and optional signing. Conceptually, the tool reads the ISO filesystem, prepares a payload, and repackages it into a standard PKG payload with metadata and verification data. This enables software publishers and IT teams to distribute macOS installers from ISO-based sources with a native installer experience. Unique value lies in end-to-end packaging controls, including post-install script integration, optional certificate signing, and integrity verification via SHA-256. Core features support multiple packaging profiles, validation of input ISO (ISO9660/UDF), and generation of a manifest for traceability. Typical use cases include distributing applications originally provided as disk images, migrations from ISO-based workflows, and automated build pipelines that require consistent PKG installers for macOS deployments. The tool is designed for IT operations, software vendors, and developers who need repeatable packaging with auditable outputs, while avoiding manual scripting and potential human error. Advanced users can tailor payload layouts, signing, and compression to meet distribution requirements and security policies.
