+
+This module contains functions that are useful in the administration of macOS.
+
+## `plist`
+
+This function accepts a hash and will convert it into a plist. This requires the [CFPropertyList](https://github.com/ckruse/CFPropertyList/) gem to be installed on your Puppet Server (`sudo puppetserver gem install cfpropertylist`).
+
+### Example
+
+``` puppet
+$plist = {
+    'SomeKey' => 'Some Value',
+    'Another Key' => 'Another Value'
+}
+
+file {'/tmp/a.plist':
+    content => plist($plist, binary),
+}
+```
