What is electron-osx-sign?

The electron-osx-sign package is used to sign and verify macOS applications built with Electron. It ensures that your application is properly signed with a valid Apple Developer ID, which is necessary for distribution and to avoid security warnings.

What are electron-osx-sign's main functionalities?

Code Signing

This feature allows you to sign your macOS application with a valid Apple Developer ID. The code sample demonstrates how to use the `sign` function to sign an application located at 'path/to/your/app' with the specified identity.

const sign = require('electron-osx-sign').sign;
sign({
  app: 'path/to/your/app',
  identity: 'Developer ID Application: Your Name (XXXXXXXXXX)'
}, function done (err) {
  if (err) {
    console.error('Error during signing:', err);
  } else {
    console.log('Application signed successfully');
  }
});

Verification

This feature allows you to verify that your macOS application has been correctly signed. The code sample demonstrates how to use the `verify` function to check the signature of an application located at 'path/to/your/app'.

const verify = require('electron-osx-sign').verify;
verify({
  app: 'path/to/your/app'
}, function done (err, result) {
  if (err) {
    console.error('Error during verification:', err);
  } else {
    console.log('Verification result:', result);
  }
});

Entitlements

This feature allows you to sign your macOS application with specific entitlements. The code sample demonstrates how to use the `sign` function to sign an application with entitlements specified in 'path/to/entitlements.plist'.

const sign = require('electron-osx-sign').sign;
sign({
  app: 'path/to/your/app',
  identity: 'Developer ID Application: Your Name (XXXXXXXXXX)',
  entitlements: 'path/to/entitlements.plist'
}, function done (err) {
  if (err) {
    console.error('Error during signing with entitlements:', err);
  } else {
    console.log('Application signed successfully with entitlements');
  }
});
