# CI/CD Pipeline Configuration Guide

This guide explains how to configure the Gitea Actions pipeline for automated building, signing, and notarizing the Apple Intelligence Server app.

## Overview

The pipeline automatically:
1. Builds the app when a release is created
2. Creates a signed `.app` bundle
3. Packages it into a DMG
4. Signs and notarizes the DMG with Apple
5. Uploads the DMG to the release

## Prerequisites

- A macOS self-hosted runner (see [macos-runner-setup.md](./macos-runner-setup.md))
- Apple Developer Program membership ($99/year)
- Developer ID Application certificate

## Step 1: Export Your Signing Certificate

### Using Keychain Access (GUI)

1. Open **Keychain Access**
2. Find "Developer ID Application: Your Name"
3. Right-click → **Export**
4. Save as `.p12` file
5. Set a strong password

### Using Command Line

```bash
security find-identity -v -p codesigning | grep "Developer ID"
# Note the certificate name

security export -k ~/Library/Keychains/login.keychain-db \
  -t identities \
  -f pkcs12 \
  -P "YOUR_SECURE_PASSWORD" \
  -o ~/Desktop/developer-id.p12
```

### Convert to Base64

```bash
base64 -i ~/Desktop/developer-id.p12 | tr -d '\n' > ~/Desktop/certificate-base64.txt
```

Copy the contents of `certificate-base64.txt` for the next step.

## Step 2: Create an App-Specific Password

Apple requires an app-specific password for notarization:

1. Go to [appleid.apple.com](https://appleid.apple.com/account/manage)
2. Sign in with your Apple ID
3. Go to **Sign-In and Security** → **App-Specific Passwords**
4. Click **Generate an app-specific password**
5. Name it "Gitea CI" or similar
6. Copy the generated password (format: `xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx`)

## Step 3: Configure Gitea Secrets

Go to your Gitea repository → **Settings** → **Actions** → **Secrets**

Add the following secrets:

| Secret Name | Description | Example |
|-------------|-------------|---------|
| `APPLE_CERTIFICATE_BASE64` | Base64-encoded .p12 certificate | `MIIKYgIBAzCCCh...` |
| `APPLE_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD` | Password for the .p12 file | `your-p12-password` |
| `APPLE_ID` | Your Apple ID email | `you@example.com` |
| `APPLE_APP_PASSWORD` | App-specific password | `xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx` |
| `APPLE_TEAM_ID` | Your Apple Developer Team ID | `LD76P8L42W` |

### Finding Your Team ID

Your Team ID is shown in:
- Apple Developer portal → Membership → Team ID
- Or in your certificate name: "Developer ID Application: Name (TEAM_ID)"

## Step 4: Workflow File

The workflow file is located at `.gitea/workflows/release.yml`.

### Workflow Triggers

The workflow triggers when a release is created:

```yaml
on:
  release:
    types: [created]
```

### Key Steps Explained

#### Install Certificate

Creates a temporary keychain and imports the signing certificate:

```yaml
- name: Install Certificate
  env:
    APPLE_CERTIFICATE_BASE64: ${{ secrets.APPLE_CERTIFICATE_BASE64 }}
    APPLE_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD: ${{ secrets.APPLE_CERTIFICATE_PASSWORD }}
  run: |
    # Creates temporary keychain
    # Imports certificate
    # Configures codesign access
```

#### Build Release Binary

Compiles the Swift project in release mode:

```yaml
- name: Build Release Binary
  run: swift build -c release --product AppleIntelligenceApp
```

#### Sign App

Signs the app bundle with hardened runtime:

```yaml
- name: Sign App
  run: |
    codesign --deep --force --verify --verbose \
      --options runtime \
      --sign "Developer ID Application: Your Name (TEAM_ID)" \
      "dist/Apple Intelligence Server.app"
```

The `--options runtime` flag enables hardened runtime, required for notarization.

#### Notarize DMG

Submits the DMG to Apple for notarization:

```yaml
- name: Notarize DMG
  run: |
    xcrun notarytool submit "dist/AppleIntelligenceServer-$VERSION.dmg" \
      --apple-id "$APPLE_ID" \
      --password "$APPLE_APP_PASSWORD" \
      --team-id "$APPLE_TEAM_ID" \
      --wait
```

The `--wait` flag makes the command wait until notarization completes.

#### Staple DMG

Attaches the notarization ticket to the DMG:

```yaml
- name: Staple DMG
  run: xcrun stapler staple "dist/AppleIntelligenceServer-$VERSION.dmg"
```

## Step 5: Creating a Release

To trigger the pipeline:

1. Go to your Gitea repository
2. Click **Releases** → **New Release**
3. Create a tag (e.g., `v1.0.0`)
4. Fill in release title and description
5. Click **Publish Release**

The pipeline will automatically:
- Build the app
- Sign and notarize
- Upload the DMG to the release

## Version Numbering

The workflow extracts the version from the Git tag:

```yaml
VERSION="${GITHUB_REF_NAME#v}"  # v1.0.0 → 1.0.0
```

Tag your releases as `v1.0.0`, `v1.1.0`, etc.

## Monitoring Pipeline Runs

1. Go to your Gitea repository
2. Click **Actions**
3. View the running or completed workflows
4. Click on a run to see detailed logs

## Troubleshooting

### Certificate Import Fails

**Error:** `security: SecKeychainItemImport: The specified item already exists in the keychain`

**Solution:** The temporary keychain may not be cleaning up. Check the workflow logs.

### Notarization Fails

**Error:** `Error: Unable to upload your app for notarization`

**Solutions:**
- Verify Apple ID credentials are correct
- Ensure app-specific password is valid
- Check that the app is properly signed with hardened runtime

### Notarization Rejected

**Error:** `Package Invalid`

**Solutions:**
- Run `xcrun notarytool log <submission-id>` to see details
- Common issues:
  - Missing hardened runtime (`--options runtime`)
  - Unsigned nested code
  - Invalid entitlements

### Code Signing Fails

**Error:** `No identity found`

**Solutions:**
- Verify certificate is correctly base64-encoded
- Check certificate password is correct
- Ensure certificate hasn't expired

## Security Best Practices

1. **Rotate Secrets Regularly:** Update your app-specific password periodically
2. **Certificate Expiration:** Developer ID certificates expire after 5 years
3. **Limit Access:** Only admins should have access to repository secrets
4. **Audit Logs:** Monitor pipeline runs for unauthorized activity

## Customizing the Pipeline

### Adding Tests

```yaml
- name: Run Tests
  run: swift test
```

### Building for Multiple Architectures

```yaml
- name: Build Universal Binary
  run: |
    swift build -c release --arch arm64 --arch x86_64
```

### Custom DMG Background

Add a background image to make the DMG look professional:

```yaml
- name: Create DMG with Background
  run: |
    # Use create-dmg tool for custom styling
    brew install create-dmg
    create-dmg \
      --volname "Apple Intelligence Server" \
      --background "assets/dmg-background.png" \
      --window-pos 200 120 \
      --window-size 600 400 \
      --icon-size 100 \
      --icon "Apple Intelligence Server.app" 150 190 \
      --app-drop-link 450 185 \
      "dist/AppleIntelligenceServer-$VERSION.dmg" \
      "dist/Apple Intelligence Server.app"
```
