Preparation

• Get your Passbook certificate from the Apple Developer portal, import it into your key chain and export it as a passwordless PKCS #12 archive (e.g. Certificates.p12).

• Put pass.pem, pass-key.pem and WWDR.pem in a dir your node app can access and set the keysPath to your template.

$ ./node_modules/passbooker/bin/node-passbooker -c './path/to/Certificates.p12' -o './keys/'
