Usage

Available Commands

The following commands are available for interacting with the IPA Bot:

  • /request <App Store URL>: Downloads and decrypts the iOS app specified by the provided App Store URL. The decrypted app file will be uploaded to the chat.
  • /reboot: Restarts the bot. This command is only available to administrators specified in the ADMIN_IDS environment variable.
  • /delete <App Store URL>: Deletes the app information and files associated with the provided App Store URL from the database and file system. This command is only available to administrators specified in the ADMIN_IDS environment variable.

Please make sure to provide valid App Store URLs when using the /request and /delete commands.

Note: The bot can only process one app download or deletion request at a time. If there is already an ongoing request, additional requests will be added to a queue and processed in order once the previous request is completed.

Running into errors while requesting an app?

You will need to install MongoSH if you haven't already. You can follow their tutorial here: https://www.mongodb.com/docs/mongodb-shell/install

There may also be some other packages that you need to manually install. In order to see a detailed error message, you can run the bash script that you see in your Terminal upon requesting an app. It should look something like this:

bash ./src/bash-decryptor/download-ipa.sh 1137397744 us 0123456789 ''

From here, you'll recieve an error message indicating what the issue is.
