iOS Build Utility Scripts

ipa Packager

NOTE: This utility is available for reference purposes - As of Xcode 7 the recommended way to package applications is via xcodebuild. See this blog post for reference.

Usage:

from ipa_packager import IpaPackager

ipa = IpaPackager("/path/to/MyApp.app","/output/path/MyApp.ipa")
ipa.package()

Command Line Usage:

python ipa_packager.py -i <AppBundle.app> -o <AppIPA.ipa>

This will produce MyApp.ipa which bundles MyApp.app and the appropriate files for SwiftSupport and WatchKitSupport as needed.

For example if MyApp was written in swift, included a WatchKit app, and a watchOS 2 app, the contents of the ipa file will be

• MyApp.ipa
  • Payload/MyApp.app
  • SwiftSupport
    • libswift....
    • ....
  • WatchKitSupport
    • WK
  • WatchKitSupport2
    • WK

Packager

Usage:

from utils.packager import Packager

p = Packager("package.zip")
p.add("/path/to/file")
p.add("/path/to/another/file","another/file")
p.package()

This Produces a zip file with

• package.zip
  • file
  • another/file

Running the tests

There are a few tests which can be run using:

python -m unittest discover test
