ipa-tools.rb resign will re-sign the given IPA file using the provided distribution certificate.
In order for it to work, you must provide the following:
- -i -- IPA file name to be signed. Example:
-i "My_App.ipa" - -e -- Executable file name. Example:
-e "My App" - -c -- distribution certificate to be used. Example:
-c "iPhone Distribution: John Smith (1234)" - -p -- mobileprovision file. By default, it'll look for a file called mobileprovision.plist, or you could specify the full path with -p. Example:
-p "~/Downloads/Team_Provisioning.plist" - -o -- output signed IPA file name. Example:
-o "Signed_App.ipa
The script will also apply new Entitlements during signing. It searches for a file 'entitlements.plist' on the current directory, and will ask you for a full file path if it cannot find.
After signed, the default output is called 'signed.ipa' unless specified via -o argument.
A sample shell script - run_resign.sh - has been provided with most common options pre-set. Just update the variables on the top and run this shell script.
