Does anyone know of a ansible DMG module for Max OSX? I would like one that can check if a application exists and only install the dmg if it doesn’t exist. It should download it and do a full install if it doesn’t.

This would be a bit tricky since a dmg is nothing more than a container type. Not all dmg files are applications and not all applications are distributed as dmg.
