cordova-build-macos

This is to help overcome some of the problems that you face while you build cordova project on macos

Sometime macos and google drive app wil create those files Icon? and .DS_Store. I believe you can safely delete. However they will be auto generated again. So you have to delete them before every build.

rm `find . -name 'Icon?'`; rm `find . -name .DS_Store` ; cordova build --release

Generate keytool

#Only the first time keytool -genkey -v -keystore foodapp.keystore -alias app_name -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000

Sign the app

jarsigner -verbose -sigalg SHA1withRSA -digestalg SHA1 -keystore my-release-key.keystore app-release-unsigned.apk app_name

Align the app

~/Library/Android/sdk/build-tools/28.0.2/zipalign -v 4 apptastic0.6-unsigned.apk apptastic0.6-signed.apk

in case you forgot the keystore app name

keytool -keystore formconnect.keystore -list -v
