Integration
Your Fastfile
should look like this
lane :appstore do
produce({
produce_username: 'felix@krausefx.com',
produce_app_identifier: 'com.krausefx.app',
produce_app_name: 'MyApp',
produce_language: 'English',
produce_version: '1.0',
produce_sku: 123,
produce_team_name: 'SunApps GmbH' # only necessary when in multiple teams
})
deliver
end
To use the newly generated app in deliver
, you need to add this line to your Deliverfile
:
apple_id ENV['PRODUCE_APPLE_ID']
This will tell deliver
, which App ID
to use, since the app is not yet available in the App Store.
How does it work?
produce
will access the iOS Dev Center
to create your App ID
. Check out the full source code: developer_center.rb.
After finishing the first step, produce
will access iTunes Connect
to create the new app with some initial values. Check out the full source code: itunes_connect.rb.
You'll still have to fill out the remaining information (like screenshots, app description and pricing). You can use deliver to upload your app metadata using a CLI
How is my password stored?
produce
uses the password manager from fastlane
. Take a look the CredentialsManager README for more information.
