ionic package build
Create a package build on Appflow
ionic package build [options]
This command creates a package build on Appflow. While the build is running, it prints the remote build log to the terminal. If the build is successful, it downloads the created app package file in the current directory.
Apart from --commit
, every option can be specified using the full name setup within the Dashboard.
The --signing-certificate
option is mandatory for any iOS build but not for Android debug builds.
Customizing the build:
- The
--environment
and--native-config
options can be used to customize the groups of values exposed to the build. - Override the preferred platform with
--build-stack
. This is useful for building older iOS apps.
Deploying the build to an App Store:
- The
--destination
option can be used to deliver the app created by the build to the configured App Store. This can be used only together with build typerelease
for Android and build typesapp-store
orenterprise
for iOS.
