How to export. ipa files for. app files built using "briefcase build iOS"

[jlij]

rm -rf appName
mkdir appName
mkdir appName/Payload
cp -r appName.app appName/Payload/appName.app
cp Icon.png appName/iTunesArtwork
cd appName
zip -r appName.ipa Payload iTunesArtwork

exit 0

The. ipa built using this method displays "structural system mismatch" after installation

Briefcase doesn't currently generate IPA files as an output format. It might be possible to add IPA export, but we'd need to investigate the command line option to xcodebuild that produces IPA output.

If you want to submit an app to the App Store, you don't need to explicitly create an IPA file; we've provided instructions in the Breifcase docs.

Can you create an unsigned“. ipa” file?
Add signatures through other methods in the future.
There are many tools on the internet for importing signatures in the later stage。

[jlij]

rm -rf appName
mkdir appName
mkdir appName/Payload
cp -r appName.app appName/Payload/appName.app
cp Icon.png appName/iTunesArtwork
cd appName
zip -r appName.ipa Payload iTunesArtwork

exit 0

The above command line can convert ". app" to ". ipa" files.
In the later stage, signatures can be successfully added through certain tools, but when installed on the device, a "structural system mismatch" appears。
I feel like it's a command-line issue because it only changes the file encapsulation format。

If you believe there is a viable path for making IPAs that aren't signed, go right ahead and use that process. I am not aware of any process of producing an Apple-compatible IPA that doesn't involve using Xcode's official processes.

[jlij]

Unsigned IPA files can be installed and used on iOS through the "Troll Store" or "iTools".
Do you know how this type of IPA file is generated?

I have no additional information I can provide here. As I have previously indicated, if you believe that unsigned IPAs can be used, you'll need to work out how to generate them and use them.
