Include mdimporter in download #23

Closed chrisridd closed 12 years ago

chrisridd commented 12 years ago

I don't know how the download files are currently produced. At some point it will be useful to include the Spotlight importer in the download - either the zip could contain both bundles, or the zip could contain .pkg installers, or...

Dunno what's best or easiest! One benefit of an installer is that it does things right for less technical users.

I note the Codex qlgenerator and mdimporter come with a .pkg installer.

PackageMaker.app always used to come as part of the Xcode installer - since Xcode moved to the App Store, I assume it must be available from https://connect.apple.com. I'm not sure if it's possible to move building the package into the Xcode build process.

Yes, it seems to have moved to the "Auxiliary Tools" download.

I'm not sure if .pkgs are the way to go.

Yeah, a dmg with folder aliases could be a simpler (though less automated) option. Wouldn't allow the selection of a global / user-level install though.

Looking through the Xcode 4 docs it seems like doing a Product > Archive on each target is the way to go. I'm not sure of the next step though, because Product > Archive just gives me an empty archive.
