Releasing

This fork should be published as:

  • source code in Git
  • DMG binaries as GitHub Release assets

Do not commit release binaries, IPAs, or machine-local snapshots into the repository.

Source Build

Prepare vendored PlayTools:

./scripts/build-vendored-playtools.sh

Then build PlayCover from Xcode or with xcodebuild.

Source-Backed Minecraft DMG

To package the fork as a public Minecraft-focused release directly from the current source tree:

./scripts/package-source-backed-minecraft-dmg.sh

This script:

  • builds vendored PlayTools from the tracked Vendor/PlayTools source
  • builds PlayCover.app from the current fork source
  • stages the tracked Minecraft helper assets from release-assets/minecraft
  • creates a separate DMG under ../dist/

Keep the old known-good dist/PlayCover-Minecraft-20260420.dmg only as a fallback artifact. It should not be used as build input for the source-backed release path.

Signing And Notarization

The tracked fastlane files are templates. Set your own environment variables before using them:

  • FASTLANE_APP_IDENTIFIER
  • FASTLANE_APPLE_ID
  • FASTLANE_TEAM_ID
  • MATCH_GIT_URL

Optional:

  • FASTLANE_OUTPUT_NAME

GitHub Release Asset

Recommended flow:

  1. Run ./scripts/package-source-backed-minecraft-dmg.sh
  2. Verify the staged app and generated .dmg
  3. Upload the DMG to GitHub Releases
  4. Keep the repository itself source-only

Minecraft Content
