It was written with nodejs before, now it's re-written with python3.

cd ipa-deploy
python3 -m pip install -e .

How To Use

ipa-deploy <path_to_ipa_file>

Example:

ipa-deploy myapp.ipa

How It Works

Here are the steps that the tool actualy runs:

# unzip the IPA file to tmp folder
mkdir ./tmp
unzip <path_to_ipa_file> -d ./tmp

# run ios-deploy to install the app into iOS device
ios-deploy -b ./tmp/Payload/*.app

# clean up the tmp folder
rm -r ./tmp
