📱 Build Mobile App - dvsa/des-workflow-actions GitHub Wiki
Description
This workflow automates the process of building either a simulator artefact or an IPA artefact, depending on the specified inputs. It checks out the specified branch to build an artefact against, sets up Node, configures AWS credentials, retrieves configuration files from AWS Secrets Manager, and then uses Fastlane to handle the build tasks based on the provided parameters. Fastlane also handles code signing, naming the artefact, and the upload of the artefact to AWS S3.
Workflow Triggers
On Workflow Call
This workflow is triggered manually from the des-devops or des-mobile-app repositories. It also runs on push to the 'develop' and when a release tag is generated in the des-mobile-app repository.
