Excecutable installer #12

Open upintheairsheep opened 1 year ago

Hello, I would like to publish ipasim onto the WinGet repository, however they have a strict policy against apps that use scripts to install, and was never implemented due to agreements. Scripts within executables are allowed onto the platform, though.

I don't think executable installer is necessary, WinGet manifests can point to .msix. But they would need some real certificate, ipasim currently only has a self-signed one.

Alternatively, you can package the powershell script in a self-extracting archive - would that work? For example, I used https://superuser.com/a/929132 with the following config to produce an .exe installer which seems to work fine.

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
Title="ipasim v1.0.1.0"
ExecuteFile="powershell.exe"
ExecuteParameters="-ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File Add-AppDevPackage.ps1 -Force"
;!@InstallEnd@!

I've uploaded the installer here:
