This hack of a Ruby script logs into your iOS provisioning portal and generates Apple iOS production push notification certificates. This was needed because I have over 200+ apps in the iOS store. I needed a quick way to generate these certificates. So, I created a Ruby Gem to interface with the Mac OS X Keychain app.
This was tested on Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) using Ruby 1.9.2.
You must have Chrome installed and the chromedriver binary http://code.google.com/p/chromium/downloads/list.
First, install the gems.
gem install keychain_manager gem install watir-webdriver
Next, modify config.example.yml with your appropriate parameters and rename the file to config.yml.
Now, you’ll need to open the script up app.rb and modify the variable END_WITH, if you want to configure all of your iOS apps that aren’t already configured for production push notifications, set END_WITH to an empty string ''. Utlimatetly, right around line 60 with END_WITH is being used should be modified to evaluate a regular expression.
Finally, run the script:
ruby app.rb
