Ninite

Ninite is commercial software which installs and updates a variety of popular applications. The professional version as a commandline option and can be included in scripts. The professional version can integrate ninite with wpkg, so that we can use ninite for installing and patching common utilities, whilst using wpkg to install the more unusual or specific applications.

The power of that functionality really increases, however, when you start to add the sort of automation, scheduling, and alerting that Datto RMM can deliver.

Obviously this is contrary to a pure open source approach of only using wpkg, though some system admins may find this a practical compromise.

  • We run the installer as a nightly scheduled task, and build a cache of the results
  • We create a wpkg package for each application which is installed using ninite. This package is run once only
  • We run ninite with the 'updateonly' option for all applications, to ensure that all relevant applications are kept up to date. This package is run at every boot.
  • We have to parse the ninite log file to report to wpkg whether or not an installation or update failed or succeeded.


  • Create a directory called 'ninite' in the %SOFTWARE% directory.
  • Save your copy of NiniteOne.exe or NiniteProTrial.exe in %SOFTWARE%ninite

Ninite Pro

NiniteOne.exe is only available to Pro customers. This will almost certainly not work with the free version of ninite.exe


The following script is run as a scheduled task on a suitable server or other machine. The script should live in your %SOFTWARE%ninite directory:

buildofflineinstaller.bat

Ninite installer

This creates a directory called 'ninitecache' which holds a offline cache of all the installers we require. It also creates a single executable 'niniteofflineinstaller.exe', however this can be very large ~1.5Gb. As a result this exe is too slow to load sensibly. We only create it as a means of obtaining the cache directory.

Below is an example of a package which will install the application named in the appSelectName variable (in this case PDFCreator). The names used by the ninite commandline are given on this page. The various switches disable the application's own autoupdate features and prevent the installers creating shortcuts on the desktop or quicklaunch bar. For a full list of commandline options see this page.

  • This could probably be done more elegantly using wpkg package templates.
  • For occasions where the appSelectName is not a valid file name (eg '.NET' including the quotes) the ninitelogfilename varible should be updated manually.

This package will update all supported applications at every boot, whether or not they were originally installed by ninite. This is very handy to minimise the problem of users installing their own software and then never updating them.

Both of the packages above use a script 'testninitelogfiles.bat' to parse the ninte log files and check for success or failure. Again this script should live in your %SOFTWARE%ninite directory.
