10.15 Catalina Support? #22

Closed MAJ007 closed 4 years ago

MAJ007 commented 5 years ago

Love the app like so many. Any chance you can make it supportable in 10.15? Doesn't work on latest beta build 19A558d

GentleHoneyLover commented 5 years ago

Same here. Would be great to get Catalina support!

kkoomen commented 5 years ago

Same here.

I just came across this tool, running 10.15.1. Is it expected (mis)behavior that alerter can be opened and shows the parameters etc. but doesn't actually run/gets stuck when trying to run one of the samples or my own? I would absolutely love to use this. terminal-notifier works okay, but I would really appreciate the multiple actions feature.

Zmaon commented 5 years ago

Same here, I'm using alerter in an app and it stopped working with Catalina. I guess it has something to do with security permissions?

DivineDominion commented 4 years ago

Does any of you have trouble with the latest version when you build it from source, or only the binary download?

I don't have Catalina installed, but since Catalina has tightened some security screws, it might be that building from source solves a couple of problems already because the app is then trusted.

I just want to report that the latest Catalina patch 10.15.2 solved this issue for me. So really it's just relevant for 10.15.0 and 10.15.1

@neutrinoceros So you're saying that this script works again on 10.15.2 ?

neutrinoceros commented 4 years ago

Yes

mhvuze commented 4 years ago

It's truly bizarre: I decided to give this another go and built it from source. I provided one of the samples from the readme as arguments for running and Xcode. Low and behold, Catalina showed me the notification permission dialogue – after giving permission, it worked!

However: It only works for the binary in the build path. If I try to copy it to another location, it won't trigger the notification. I'll see how to make Xcode build to a directory of my choice, so I can properly use it. But hope it helps.

E: That wasn't the problem – I always tried to run it on my external drive. Turns out it works fine as long as I keep it on the internal. Geez 🤦‍♂️

I had to rebuild it on my machine, selecting "Sign for local use" and it works now.

kkoomen commented 4 years ago

I'm getting annoyed that @vjeantet is ignoring this issue completely.

@vjeantet Can you please support Cataline? You provided an open source program and people are waiting for this to be fixed.

DivineDominion commented 4 years ago

@kkoomen That's not how freely sharing your open source endeavors work :) You can build and run the software just fine from your local computer. Maybe you find someone who can build the binary for you if needed.

vjeantet commented 4 years ago

Hello all,

I’ll try to rebuild a binary tonight, and share results here.

vjeantet commented 4 years ago

new binary compiled available here : https://github.com/vjeantet/alerter/releases/tag/003

Anybody to confirm that it now works ?

riccardocossu commented 4 years ago

I get "unidentified developer" error and it complains it can't be checked for malware

riccardocossu commented 4 years ago

a workaround is to download it through terminal (doesn't work with v 002):

wget https://github.com/vjeantet/alerter/releases/download/003/alerter_v003_darwin_amd64.zip

unzip alerter_v003_darwin_amd64.zip

vjeantet commented 4 years ago

Strange... Anybody know how I should build/sign the app to get rid of this message?

riccardocossu commented 4 years ago

I think you will have to pay Apple on a yearly basis to get a valid certificate; but I'm ok with using one of the workaround (build it myself or download through the terminal), after all it's a tool for advanced users

MAJ007 commented 4 years ago

@vjeantet In addition to an Apple Dev ID which costs $99 which can be used to sign your app. You would also need to Notarise your app, which is now part of the build process - https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/notarizing_macos_software_before_distribution

MAJ007 commented 4 years ago

I would be more than happy to donate $ if you sign and notarise the app :)

vjeantet commented 4 years ago

99$... each year ! i'll think about it.

MAJ007 commented 4 years ago

I would be more than Happy to contribute :)

vjeantet commented 4 years ago

Thanks @MAJ007 !

I set a support this project button in the README.MD, to allow financial contributions. Goal : reach a sufficient amount of money to get an apple Developer ID. This will permit to sign and notarize alerter.
