• App Store Submission: Complete App Store submission pipeline
• Environment Validation: macOS, Xcode, and iOS SDK validation

Features

✅ Core iOS Build Capabilities

• Xcode project compilation and archiving
• Unity iOS project support with proven sango-card patterns
• Multiple export methods (development, app-store, enterprise, ad-hoc)
• Build artifact collection and management
• Comprehensive logging and error handling

🔐 Code Signing & Provisioning

• Automatic code signing via Xcode managed provisioning
• Manual code signing with custom provisioning profiles
• Provisioning profile validation and installation
• Certificate management and validation
• Team ID and signing identity configuration

🚀 Deployment & Distribution

• TestFlight Integration:
  • App Store Connect API support
  • Automatic build upload and processing
  • External tester distribution
  • Beta app review information handling
• Firebase App Distribution:
  • Service account authentication
  • Tester email and group management
  • Release notes and versioning
• App Store Submission:
  • Automated submission pipeline
  • Release scheduling and phased rollout
  • Review information management

🧪 Testing & Validation

• iOS Simulator integration for testing
• Unit and UI test execution
• Code coverage collection
• Test result reporting in multiple formats (xcresult, junit)
• Environment and configuration validation

Architecture

Built on RFC018: Build Component Specification patterns:

[BuildComponent("ios")]
public class IosBuildComponent : IBuildComponentV2, IMobileBuildComponent

Service Dependencies

• IFastlaneRunner: Automation pipeline execution
• IProvisioningProfileService: Provisioning profile management
• IXcodeValidationService: Xcode environment validation
• IIosSigningService: Code signing configuration
• ITestFlightService: TestFlight deployment
• IFirebaseDistributionService: Firebase App Distribution

Configuration

iOS Build Context

var iosContext = new IosBuildContext
{
 XcodeProjectPath = "./ios/Unity-iPhone.xcodeproj",
 Scheme = "Unity-iPhone",
 ExportMethod = "development",
 BundleIdentifier = "com.example.app",
 SigningConfig = new IosSigningConfig
 {
 UseAutomaticSigning = true,
 TeamId = "TEAM123456"
 }
};

JSON Configuration

{
 "mobile": {
 "ios": {
 "enabled": true,
 "xcodeProjectPath": "./ios",
 "scheme": "Unity-iPhone",
 "exportOptions": {
 "method": "development",
 "teamID": "YOUR_TEAM_ID",
 "signingStyle": "automatic"
 },
 "deployments": {
 "testflight": {

 }
 }
}

Usage Examples

Basic iOS Build

var iosComponent = serviceProvider.GetService<IosBuildComponent>();
var buildContext = new IosBuildContext
{
 XcodeProjectPath = "./ios/Unity-iPhone.xcodeproj",
 Scheme = "Unity-iPhone",
 ExportMethod = "development"
};

var buildSuccess = await iosComponent.BuildAsync(buildContext);

TestFlight Deployment

var deployContext = new IosDeployContext
{
 UploadToTestFlight = true,
 IpaPath = "./build/ios/App.ipa",
 TestFlightConfig = new TestFlightConfig
 {
 ApiKeyId = "XXXXXXXXXX",
 ApiKeyPath = "./fastlane/AuthKey.p8",
 IssuerId = "XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX",
 DistributeExternal = true,
 Groups = { "Beta Testers" }
 }
};

var deploySuccess = await iosComponent.DeployAsync(deployContext);

Firebase Distribution

var deployContext = new IosDeployContext
{
 UploadToFirebase = true,
 IpaPath = "./build/ios/App.ipa",
 FirebaseConfig = new IosFirebaseDistributionConfig
 {
 AppId = "1:1234567890:ios:abc123def456",
 ServiceAccountKeyFile = "./firebase-service-account.json",
 TesterEmails = { "tester@example.com" },
 TesterGroups = { "internal-team" },
 ReleaseNotes = "Latest iOS build with new features"
 }
};

var deploySuccess = await iosComponent.DeployAsync(deployContext);

Requirements

System Requirements

• macOS: iOS builds require macOS operating system
• Xcode: Latest stable version recommended (15.0+)
• iOS SDK: At least one iOS SDK installed via Xcode
• Fastlane: Ruby gem for automation (gem install fastlane)

Apple Developer Requirements

• Active Apple Developer Program membership
• App Store Connect access for TestFlight/App Store deployment
• Signing certificates and provisioning profiles configured
• App Store Connect API key for automated uploads

Optional Requirements

• Firebase project setup for Firebase App Distribution
• Service account key for Firebase authentication
• Ruby environment for Fastlane (typically included with macOS)

Integration with sango-card Patterns

This implementation leverages proven patterns from the sango-card iOS build system:

• Fastlane Configuration: Based on production-tested Fastfile implementation
• Code Signing Flow: Proven automatic and manual signing workflows
• Version Management: CFBundleVersion and CFBundleShortVersionString handling
• Environment Configuration: Multi-environment support (dev, staging, production)
• Output Management: Structured build artifact organization

Error Handling

Comprehensive error handling with RFC018 BuildComponentException patterns:

try 
{
 var result = await iosComponent.BuildAsync(context);
}
catch (BuildComponentException ex) when (ex.ComponentId == "ios")
{
 // Handle iOS-specific build errors
 _logger.LogError("iOS build failed: {Message}", ex.Message);
}

Testing

Component includes comprehensive test coverage:

• Unit Tests: Component behavior validation
• Integration Tests: Real Xcode project builds
• Mock Services: Testable service implementations
• Validation Tests: Configuration and environment validation

Contributing

This component follows RFC018 Build Component Specification standards:

1. All services implement proper interfaces
2. Comprehensive logging with structured messages
3. Exception handling with BuildComponentException
4. Configuration validation and error reporting
5. Dependency injection patterns throughout
