How to know if the app was launched with Launch at Login or manual App Open? [macOS]

[shaif-dihan]

Is there an API for this functionality?

I am trying to perform certain tasks (like minimize the app) when the app is automatically launched at login. And not do, when it is manually launched.

Hello, possibly this code snippet, you can add it in AppDelegate.swift :

private var launchedAsLogInItem: Bool {
	guard let event = NSAppleEventManager.shared().currentAppleEvent else { return false }
	return
		event.eventID == kAEOpenApplication &&
		event.paramDescriptor(forKeyword: keyAEPropData)?.enumCodeValue == keyAELaunchedAsLogInItem
}
