Final hurdle - trying to distribute app

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

Hi guys,
I have finished building a game in Corona SDK, and tested that it works on device.
I tried to deliver the .app folder, but it turns out that they need the native Xcode source.

The client responded with a bunch of certificates, a new App ID and P12 passwords.

I instralled their .cer certificate and authenticated it with their .p12 file.

Now, how do I get it to the right format that they need, the IPA?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hey Garry,

Have they specified that they need an IPA? Corona doesn’t give you “native Xcode source” but if they are simply looking to upload to the store you can build using the cert/key/prov they provided and they will be able to submit the zip file produced when you build.

You can get an IPA from a Corona app (search forum, there are steps) but it may not be necessary depending on what you’re doing.

Hi Peach!
when I build, it creates an .app file, do I just zip it up for them?
I thought I didn’t need the IPA neither, so I’m pointing them to the corona article on uploading.

Hey Garry; yes just zip it and send it to them, they should be able to submit just fine. [import]uid: 52491 topic_id: 33691 reply_id: 134212[/import]
