## Installation
|
|||
|

## What is app "notarization"?
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
From Apple's docs in XCode:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
> A notarized app is a macOS app that was uploaded to Apple for processing before it was distributed. When you export a notarized app from Xcode, it code signs the app with a Developer ID certificate and staples a ticket from Apple to the app. The ticket confirms that you previously uploaded the app to Apple.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
> On macOS 10.14 and later, the user can launch notarized apps when Gatekeeper is enabled. When the user first launches a notarized app, Gatekeeper looks for the app’s ticket online. If the user is offline, Gatekeeper looks for the ticket that was stapled to the app.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Apple has made this a hard requirement as of 10.15 (Catalina).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Prerequisites
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
For notarization, you need the following things:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
1. Xcode 10 or later installed on your Mac.
|
|||
|
2. An [Apple Developer](https://developer.apple.com/) account.
|
|||
|
3. [An app-specific password for your ADC account’s Apple ID](https://support.apple.com/HT204397).
|
|||
|
4. Your app may need to be signed with `hardened-runtime` and the following entitlements:
|
|||
|
1. `com.apple.security.cs.allow-jit`
|
|||
|
2. `com.apple.security.cs.allow-unsigned-executable-memory`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## API
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
### Method: `notarize(opts): Promise<void>`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* `options` Object
|
|||
|
* `tool` String - The notarization tool to use, default is `legacy`. Can be `legacy` or `notarytool`. `notarytool` is substantially (10x) faster.
|
|||
|
* `appPath` String - The absolute path to your `.app` file
|
|||
|
* There are different options for each tool: Legacy
|
|||
|
* `appBundleId` String - The app bundle identifier your Electron app is using. E.g. `com.github.electron`
|
|||
|
* `ascProvider` String (optional) - Your [Team Short Name](#notes-on-your-team-short-name).
|
|||
|
* There are two authentication methods available: user name with password:
|
|||
|
* `appleId` String - The username of your apple developer account
|
|||
|
* `appleIdPassword` String - The [app-specific password](https://support.apple.com/HT204397) (not your Apple ID password).
|
|||
|
* ... or apiKey with apiIssuer:
|
|||
|
* `appleApiKey` String - Required for JWT authentication. See Note on JWT authentication below.
|
|||
|
* `appleApiIssuer` String - Issuer ID. Required if `appleApiKey` is specified.
|
|||
|
* ... or Notary Tool
|
|||
|
* There are three authentication methods available: user name with password:
|
|||
|
* `appleId` String - The username of your apple developer account
|
|||
|
* `appleIdPassword` String - The [app-specific password](https://support.apple.com/HT204397) (not your Apple ID password).
|
|||
|
* `teamId` String - The team ID you want to notarize under.
|
|||
|
* ... or apiKey with apiIssuer:
|
|||
|
* `appleApiKey` String - Required for JWT authentication. See Note on JWT authentication below.
|
|||
|
* `appleApiKeyId` String - Required for JWT authentication. See Note on JWT authentication below.
|
|||
|
* `appleApiIssuer` String - Issuer ID. Required if `appleApiKey` is specified.
|
|||
|
* ... or keychain with keychainProfile:
|
|||
|
* `keychain` String - The name of the keychain or path to the keychain you stored notarization credentials in.
|
|||
|
* `keychainProfile` String - The name of the profile you provided when storing notarization credentials.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Safety when using `appleIdPassword`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
1. Never hard code your password into your packaging scripts, use an environment
|
|||
|
variable at a minimum.
|
|||
|
2. It is possible to provide a keychain reference instead of your actual password (assuming that you have already logged into
|
|||
|
the Application Loader from Xcode). For example:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
const password = `@keychain:"Application Loader: ${appleId}"`;
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Another option is that you can add a new keychain item using either the Keychain Access app or from the command line using the `security` utility:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```bash
|
|||
|
security add-generic-password -a "AC_USERNAME" -w <app_specific_password> -s "AC_PASSWORD"
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
where `AC_USERNAME` should be replaced with your Apple ID, and then in your code you can use:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
const password = `@keychain:AC_PASSWORD`;
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Notes on JWT authentication
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
You can obtain an API key from [Appstore Connect](https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/access/api). Create a key with _App Manager_ access. Note down the Issuer ID and download the `.p8` file. This file is your API key and comes with the name of `AuthKey_<api_key>.p8`. This is the string you have to supply when calling `notarize`.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Based on the `ApiKey`, `altool` will look in the following places for that file:
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
* `./private_keys`
|
|||
|
* `~/private_keys`
|
|||
|
* `~/.private_keys`
|
|||
|
* `~/.appstoreconnect/private_keys`
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
## Notes on your Team Short Name
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
If you are a member of multiple teams or organizations, you have to tell Apple on behalf of which organization you're uploading. To find your [team's short name](https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/113798)), you can ask `iTMSTransporter`, which is part of the now deprecated `Application Loader` as well as the newer [`Transporter`](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/transporter/id1450874784?mt=12).
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
With `Transporter` installed, run:
|
|||
|
```sh
|
|||
|
/Applications/Transporter.app/Contents/itms/bin/iTMSTransporter -m provider -u APPLE_DEV_ACCOUNT -p APP_PASSWORD
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Alternatively, with older versions of Xcode, run:
|
|||
|
```sh
|
|||
|
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications/Application Loader.app/Contents/itms/bin/iTMSTransporter -m provider -u APPLE_DEV_ACCOUNT -p APP_PASSWORD
|
|||
|
```
|
|||
|
## Example Usage
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
```javascript
|
|||
|
import { notarize } from 'electron-notarize';
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
async function packageTask () {
|
|||
|
// Package your app here, and code sign with hardened runtime
|
|||
|
await notarize({
|
|||
|
appBundleId,
|
|||
|
appPath,
|
|||
|
appleId,
|
|||
|
appleIdPassword,
|
|||
|
ascProvider, // This parameter is optional
|
|||
|
});
|
|||
|
}
|
|||
|
```
