问题
I have a Apple Developer account, BUT I don't have a Mac, and I need to do the following with my Ionic project: Package a native Ionic iOS app AND Publish it to the Apple Store.
I've read about the limitations to compiling and publishing an iOS app in the Apple Store without a Mac, but I am in doubt about the Ionic pro. There says that Ionic pro can 'Package native app builds in the cloud', but does this mean that I can publish the generated cloud Package from Ionic Pro directly to the Apple Store?
Or will I still need a Mac, or macincloud.com service to publish to Apple Store?
回答1:
My experience is that Ionic Pro can do the most of the job but you still need Mac or Mac in cloud at these steps:
- create .p12 Certification file
- upload the .ipa file to the App Store
After you created your Certification file, You can upload it to Ionic Pro -> Settings -> Certificates. You can build .ipa files with proper credentials in cloud. But unfortunately I didn't found another way to upload the .ipa file to App Store, only with Application Loader from Mac.
So I decided to use a pay-as-you-go Mac in cloud account (you pay only for minutes you are logged in) since the time I spend on Mac is very limited (few minutes per App publication).
Anyway, this is a workaround, and I hope that some day there will be an Application Loader service inside the Ionic Pro account.
