# Clawdis macOS release (Sparkle)
|
||
|
||
This app now ships Sparkle auto-updates. Release builds must be Developer ID–signed, zipped, and published with a signed appcast entry.
|
||
|
||
## Prereqs
|
||
- Developer ID Application cert installed (`Developer ID Application: Peter Steinberger (Y5PE65HELJ)` is expected).
|
||
- Sparkle private key path set in the environment as `SPARKLE_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE`; key lives in `/Users/steipete/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox/Backup/Sparkle` (same key as Trimmy; public key baked into Info.plist).
|
||
- Notary credentials (keychain profile or API key) for `xcrun notarytool` if you want Gatekeeper-safe DMG/zip distribution.
|
||
- We use a Keychain profile named `clawdis-notary`, created from App Store Connect API key env vars in your shell profile:
|
||
- `APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_P8`, `APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID`, `APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID`
|
||
- `echo "$APP_STORE_CONNECT_API_KEY_P8" | sed 's/\\n/\n/g' > /tmp/clawdis-notary.p8`
|
||
- `xcrun notarytool store-credentials "clawdis-notary" --key /tmp/clawdis-notary.p8 --key-id "$APP_STORE_CONNECT_KEY_ID" --issuer "$APP_STORE_CONNECT_ISSUER_ID"`
|
||
- `pnpm` deps installed (`pnpm install --config.node-linker=hoisted`).
|
||
- Sparkle tools are fetched automatically via SwiftPM at `apps/macos/.build/artifacts/sparkle/Sparkle/bin/` (`sign_update`, `generate_appcast`, etc.).
|
||
|
||
## Build & package
|
||
```bash
|
||
# From repo root; set release IDs so Sparkle feed is enabled
|
||
BUNDLE_ID=com.steipete.clawdis \
|
||
APP_VERSION=0.1.0 \
|
||
APP_BUILD=0.1.0 \
|
||
BUILD_CONFIG=release \
|
||
SIGN_IDENTITY="Developer ID Application: Peter Steinberger (Y5PE65HELJ)" \
|
||
scripts/package-mac-app.sh
|
||
|
||
# Zip for distribution (includes resource forks for Sparkle delta support)
|
||
ditto -c -k --sequesterRsrc --keepParent dist/Clawdis.app dist/Clawdis-0.1.0.zip
|
||
|
||
# Optional: also build a styled DMG for humans (drag to /Applications)
|
||
scripts/create-dmg.sh dist/Clawdis.app dist/Clawdis-0.1.0.dmg
|
||
|
||
# Recommended: build + notarize/staple zip + DMG
|
||
# First, create a keychain profile once:
|
||
# xcrun notarytool store-credentials "clawdis-notary" \
|
||
# --apple-id "<apple-id>" --team-id "<team-id>" --password "<app-specific-password>"
|
||
NOTARIZE=1 NOTARYTOOL_PROFILE=clawdis-notary \
|
||
BUNDLE_ID=com.steipete.clawdis \
|
||
APP_VERSION=0.1.0 \
|
||
APP_BUILD=0.1.0 \
|
||
BUILD_CONFIG=release \
|
||
SIGN_IDENTITY="Developer ID Application: Peter Steinberger (Y5PE65HELJ)" \
|
||
scripts/package-mac-dist.sh
|
||
|
||
# Optional: ship dSYM alongside the release
|
||
ditto -c -k --keepParent apps/macos/.build/release/Clawdis.app.dSYM dist/Clawdis-0.1.0.dSYM.zip
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Appcast entry
|
||
Use the release note generator so Sparkle renders formatted HTML notes:
|
||
```bash
|
||
SPARKLE_PRIVATE_KEY_FILE=/Users/steipete/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox/Backup/Sparkle/ed25519-private-key scripts/make_appcast.sh dist/Clawdis-0.1.0.zip https://raw.githubusercontent.com/steipete/clawdis/main/appcast.xml
|
||
```
|
||
Generates HTML release notes from `CHANGELOG.md` (via `scripts/changelog-to-html.sh`) and embeds them in the appcast entry.
|
||
Commit the updated `appcast.xml` alongside the release assets (zip + dSYM) when publishing.
|
||
|
||
## Publish & verify
|
||
- Upload `Clawdis-0.1.0.zip` (and `Clawdis-0.1.0.dSYM.zip`) to the GitHub release for tag `v0.1.0`.
|
||
- Ensure the raw appcast URL matches the baked feed: `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/steipete/clawdis/main/appcast.xml`.
|
||
- Sanity checks:
|
||
- `curl -I https://raw.githubusercontent.com/steipete/clawdis/main/appcast.xml` returns 200.
|
||
- `curl -I <enclosure url>` returns 200 after assets upload.
|
||
- On a previous public build, run “Check for Updates…” from the About tab and verify Sparkle installs the new build cleanly.
|
||
|
||
Definition of done: signed app + appcast are published, update flow works from an older installed version, and release assets are attached to the GitHub release.
