Build without AppStore Developer Account #19

Closed snunez1 closed 9 years ago

snunez1 commented 9 years ago

Does anyone have the formula for building this without an Apple developer signing key? It doesn't make sense to pay $100 just to try it out, especially if you're never going to build it for the app store.

There is a ready-made build right here: https://github.com/graphsketcher/GraphSketcher/releases

That's the one I'm using thanks, but as a binary I can't make changes to it. I need modify the source.

You don't need a paid Apple Developer account, or a Developer ID certificate to build GraphSketcher.

However, since GraphSketcher is sandboxed, it must be code-signed.

The easiest way to do this is to generate a self-signed certificate that matches the pattern the build system is already looking for: "Mac Developer: Your Name".
