Notarized

[kelsin]

Since this was blocking me I ended up replacing @electron/notarize with a very simple (but no error handling for now) script. In my package.json I have:

"build": {
  "mac": {
    "notarize": false
  },
  "afterSign": "electron/notarize.js"
}

as normal. This is the same as if you are writing your own custom @electron/notarize script. My script however is just:

import { execSync } from "node:child_process";

async function notarizing(context) {
  const { electronPlatformName, appOutDir } = context;

  if (electronPlatformName !== "darwin") {
    return;
  }

  if (!process.env.APPLEIDPASS) {
    return;
  }

  const appName = context.packager.appInfo.productFilename;
  const appPath = `${appOutDir}/${appName}.app`;
  const zipPath = `${appOutDir}/${appName}.zip`;
  const appleId = process.env.APPLE_ID;
  const appleIdPassword = process.env.APPLEIDPASS;
  const teamId = process.env.APPLE_TEAM_ID;

  console.log(
    execSync(`ditto -c -k --keepParent "${appPath}" "${zipPath}"`, {
      encoding: "utf8",
    }),
  );

  console.log(
    execSync(
      `xcrun notarytool submit "${zipPath}" --team-id "${teamId}" --apple-id "${appleId}" --password "${appleIdPassword}" --wait`,
      { encoding: "utf8" },
    ),
  );

  console.log(
    execSync(`xcrun stapler staple "${appPath}"`, { encoding: "utf8" }),
  );
}

export default notarizing;

Use as your own risk and make sure to check what environment variables you are using for CI/etc. This is working in my github actions and now my app is being packaged and notarizing again. Clearly the current logic used to run codesign with only the app bundle basename is not working. Until @electron/notarize updates to fix things I'll be using this.
