MacModelShelf

What?

A small Python module that gives you nice human readable Macintosh model names, e.g. "iMac (27-inch, Late 2009)", when given a serial number or model code. It uses shelve to keep a persistent dictionary of model codes, and looks up unknown model codes from Apple's servers.

How?

In your code:

import macmodelshelf
macmodelshelf.model_code("W12345825RU") # Returns the model code "5RU"
macmodelshelf.model("5RU")              # Returns "iMac (27-inch, Late 2009)"

On the commandline:

% ./macmodelshelf.py 5RU
iMac (27-inch, Late 2009)

Dump?

% ./macmodelshelf.py dump-json
macmodelshelfdump = {
    "000": "Power Mac G5",
    "00W": "Xserve (Late 2006)",
    "01P": "MacBook (13-inch, Late 2007)",
...
}
% ./macmodelshelf.py dump-markdown
Code | Model
:--- | :---
`000` | Power Mac G5
`00W` | Xserve (Late 2006)
`01P` | MacBook (13-inch, Late 2007)
...

For a dump of all the models in the current cache, see dump.markdown.
