Feature #11299: Facter should utilize CFPropertyList to read/write plist files
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11299#change-61519

Author: Gary Larizza
Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Gary Larizza
Category: library
Target version: 2.0.0
Keywords: OS X plist cfpropertylist
Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/pull/188
Affected Facter version: 


Currently Facter has to run plutil -convert xml1 on EVERY plist it encounters 
because it has no way of supporting binary plist files. The CFPropertyList 
project is a Ruby library that allows direct access to read/write plist files 
WITHOUT using Apple’s CoreFoundation libraries (which give Facter/Puppet 
problems due to green threading). Facter should be able to utilize that library 
to read/write plist files as it would speed up service resource handling 
exponentially.
