Mac Sign and Notarize

Prepare the entitlements file

  • Copy base.entitlements into your build folder
    (Located in the Documents folder on the Mac Mini)\
  • Rename it to match your app (e.g. CopperCorp.entitlements)

Sign the app

Open Terminal, cd into the build folder, and run:

codesign --deep --force --verify --verbose --timestamp --options runtime --entitlements "{name}.entitlements" --sign "Developer ID Application: Terrahutton AB (793U5AWV3W)" "{name}.app"

Zip the app

Use the following command to preserve metadata:

ditto -c -k --sequesterRsrc --keepParent "{name}.app" "{name}.zip"

Submit for Notarization

xcrun notarytool submit "{name}.zip" --keychain-profile "TerrahuttonProfile" --wait

(The TerrahuttonProfile is setup on the Mac Mini)

Staple Ticket

Attach the ticket to the app:

xcrun stapler staple "{name}.app"

Upload the app

Delete the old zip you used for submission and run the ditto command again on the stapled app:

ditto -c -k --sequesterRsrc --keepParent "{name}.app" "{name}.zip"

Verify the app (Optional)

Run the following command if you want to make sure you have done everything correctly:

xcrun stapler validate "{name}.app"
