Get the path of the .dmg from the mount point
I'm looking for a way to get the .dmg path of a mounted disk image with just its mount point.
I want to write a "simple" Finder service that ejects the disk image and trashes the accompanying .dmg. The ejecting is trivial, but I'm at a loss as to how to figure out the path of the .dmg, given just the mount point.
diskutil doesn't seem to know or isn't saying.
It's for a script, so AppleScript- or shell-based suggestions are preferred.
Answer
Use hdiutil info to get the information about currently mounted images. Then
use hdiutil detach /Mount/Point to dismount all file systems, and detach the image.
You'll need to parse the output from hdiutil info to find the right image-path if multiple images are mounted. It will probably be more robust to use the plist output format hdiutil info -plist and run that into, say, a python script with plistlib or an AppleScript using the Property List Suite from System Events.
Here's a quick and dirty python script to give you an idea. It's easy to explore options using the python interpreter:
>>> import plistlib
>>> from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
>>> output = Popen(["hdiutil", "info", "-plist"], stdout=PIPE).communicate()[0]
>>> pl = plistlib.readPlistFromString(output)
>>> for image in pl['images']:
... for se in image['system-entities']:
... if se.get('mount-point') == '/Volumes/blah':
... print image['image-path']
/Path/To/blah.dmg
