Coding for a client

General (non-technical) Off-Topic

I was wondering if there was a recommended procedure for delivering an app to a client.

It seems like the provisioning profile would be the tricky bit, assume the client isn’t a coder and doesn’t have a corona subscription. I’m having a little trouble finding documentation about how to share or transfer provisioning profiles.

Ideally I’d like to deliver the finished app as bundled by Corona, ready for upload to the App store. Obviously the client will need their own iPhone Dev account with Apple, but do I have to get a distribution profile from them to build with?

I guess I’m not entirely clear how tied to your Dev account the profiles are, or could I just email one to someone else and they could install it no problem?

With current xCode the provisioning
For distribution it works different… If the client has a developer account you need to have his distribution (private) data to bundle it for him. So he has to trust you.

If he does not gives this to you… I believe he needs to have his own corona license and you have to give him all the code so he can build it by himself.

Hmmm, yeah, that’s kinda what I was afraid.

Does Corona create an xcode project when it’s building the app (the way unity does)? Somewhere in a temp folder maybe?

If so that’d be handy, cause I could just give my client that and walk him through building it with his profile.

If not, please consider it a feature request :smiley:

Or any easier method of delivering a final project to clients without corona licenses themselves would be handy. [import]uid: 6693 topic_id: 1403 reply_id: 3946[/import]

Corona does not create an XCode project. It creates the app online, so you need to create it with the final distribution profiles before you ship it to your client.

Please post your feature request in the feature section of the forum. [import]uid: 5712 topic_id: 1403 reply_id: 3961[/import]
