altool plugin

fastlane Plugin Badge

Getting Started

This project is a fastlane plugin. To get started with fastlane-plugin-altool, add it to your project by running:

fastlane add_plugin altool

Pre-requisite

This plugin has configurable Apple ID and password but you probably don't want to hardcode that. You need to have Fastlane setup with FASTLANE_USER and FASTLANE_PASSWORD environmenal varibales setup. Fastlane will ask it when you run fastlane init but if not you have to set these variables.

You can set that easily for bash shell

$ export FASTLANE_USER="your_apple_id@yourcompany.com";
$ export FASTLANE_PASSWORD="your_super_xecret_password";

You can do the same for your choice of shell if you aren't using bash.

Currently Fastlane deliver uses iTMSTransporter to upload an ipa files to iTunes Connect but there is slick way to do this using altool

This plugin assume that, you already have that Fastlane setup and your details are configured as ENV variables in FASTLANE_USER and FASTLANE_PASSWORD by default.

        altool_username: ENV["FASTLANE_USER"],

        altool_ipa_path: "./build/Your-ipa.ipa",
        altool_output_format: "xml",
