How to build

(optional) Install a newer ruby version:

brew install ruby

Add to your ~/.bash_profile

export PATH="/usr/local/opt/ruby/bin:$PATH"
export PATH="/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/2.7.0/bin:$PATH"

Prepare

Prepare and install Ruby bundler:

• sudo gem install bundler

Configure bundler to use local directory for storing dependencies:

• bundle config set --local path '.bundle/vendor'

Then run bundle install:

• bundle install

IMPORTANT: before running Fastlane, you need to place the App Store Connect API key to fastlane/AuthKey.p8.

Then you can run Fastlane using a command like this:

• bundle exec fastlane [lane]

Register your device:

• bundle exec fastlane run register_device udid:"UUID" name:"Device name"

Codesigning

Run this command to get proper codesigning certificates:

• bundle exec fastlane prepare

Actions

• bundle exec fastlane tests -- run tests
• bundle exec fastlane build -- build version for App Store

Actions below are supposed to be used from CI only:

• bundle exec fastlane adhoc -- build adhoc version (for inner testing)
• bundle exec fastlane increment -- increments build number, commits it to git
• bundle exec fastlane testflight_beta -- upload previously built version to testflight

In the case when certificate expires, you may need to nuke the old certs and generate them again:

bundle exec fastlane match nuke development
bundle exec fastlane match nuke distribution
bundle exec fastlane generate

In order for fastlane to work properly in CI environment, we use spaceauth.

Run this command to generate FASTLANE_SESSION which you'll then need to use on the CI server:

bundle exec fastlane auth
