iOS: Build your app

Now that we've set up your Cordova project, the last step is to call the Build process.

Build

To run the Buildbot, you can use the build command. Firstly, navigate to your project root folder, and then run the following command:

bm buildbot build --platforms ios --release


You will be prompted to enter the passwords you created for your signing certificate. Once you enter these, the Buildbot CLI will ZIP up your project contents and pass it over to the BlinkMobile hosted Buildbot.

The Buildbot will create your app for you, and then email you a link to download.

Generally this process will take about a minute, but it could be longer if there is a queue.

If there are any errors in the build process, you will be emailed with detail about the error.

Download Your IPA 

You will receive an email from the Buildbot that will have a .ipa file attached. This is your app install file.
