signing

Signing configuration that should be used when building for the device.

The signing is a nested section within the xcodebuild parameters. e.g:

xcodebuild {
	target = "Example"
	scheme = "Example"
	
	signing {
		certificateURI = 'file:///Users/me/codesign/development.p12'
		certificatePassword = 'my_secret_password'
		mobileProvisionURI = [
			file:///Users/me/codesign/com.example.Example.mobileprovision',
			file:///Users/me/codesign/com.example.Example.Widget.mobileprovision'
		]
	}
}

Parameters

mobileProvisionURI

URI where the mobile provision profile is located that should be used when signing the app. You can also specify multiple provisining profiles as array when you have an app exenstion e.g.

[ 'file:///first.mobileprovision', 'file:///second.mobileprovision']

default value: empty

certificateURI

Uri to the certificate that should be used to sign the app

default value: empty

certificatePassword

Password for the certificate file

default value: empty

entitlementsFile

With this parameter a entitlments file can be specified that is used for codesigning. If empty then the entitlemnts that is embedded in the provisioning file is extracted and used.

default value: empty

identity

The signing identity e.g. ‘iPhone Developer: Rene Piringer (AASDF1234)’ or the SHA. With macOS Sierra only the SHA works. This parameter is optional and only needed if you have more then one identity in the keychain. This is only the case if the keychain parameter is set, and the keychain is not created during the build process.

default value: empty

keychainPassword

Password for the chain that is created

default value: 'This_is_the_default_keychain_password'

keychain

It is highly recommended that you do not use this parameters! Gradle creates a keychain automatically, therefor you do not need to specify the keychain. You only need the parameter if you want to use an existing keychain. For this you have to make sure that /usr/bin/codesign is allowed to access the certificates in this keychain. If you use this parameter then the parameters certificateURI and certificatePassword are ignored and nothing is imported!

timeout

A custom timeout in seconds before the keychain automatically locks.

default value: empty - This means the default timeout is used that is 5 minutes
