Installation

Install the gem

sudo gem install deliver

Make sure, you have the latest version of the Xcode command line tools installed:

xcode-select --install

To create new screenshots automatically, check out my other open source project snapshot.

To upload builds to TestFlight check out pilot.

Quick Start

The guide will create all the necessary files for you, using the existing app metadata from iTunes Connect.

• cd [your_project_folder]
• deliver init
• Enter your iTunes Connect credentials
• Enter your app identifier
• Enjoy a good drink, while the computer does all the work for you

From now on, you can run deliver to deploy a new update, or just upload new app metadata and screenshots.

Can I trust deliver?

###How does this thing even work? Is magic involved? 🎩###

deliver is fully open source, you can take a look at its source files. It will only modify the content you want to modify using the Deliverfile. Your password will be stored in the Mac OS X keychain, but can also be passed using environment variables. (More information available on CredentialsManager)

Before actually uploading anything to iTunes, deliver will generate a HTML summary of the collected data.

deliver uses the following techniques under the hood:

• The iTMSTransporter tool is used to upload the binary to iTunes Connect. iTMSTransporter is a command line tool provided by Apple.
• For all metadata related actions deliver uses spaceship
