mix mob.publish (mob_dev v0.3.37)

Uploads a release-signed artifact to the platform's app store.

mix mob.publish --ios                       # uploads _build/mob_release/<App>.ipa
mix mob.publish --ios path/to/Foo.ipa       # uploads a specific .ipa
mix mob.publish --android                   # uploads android/app/build/outputs/bundle/release/app-release.aab
mix mob.publish --android path/to/app.aab   # uploads a specific .aab
mix mob.publish --android --track production # override track from mob.exs

Platform flag is required — Mob is intentionally platform-agnostic and refuses to default to either side. Pick --ios or --android explicitly so it's obvious from the command which store you're hitting.

--ios prerequisites

1. App Store Connect API key (.p8 file). Create one at https://appstoreconnect.apple.com/access/api with App Manager role.

2. The app record exists in App Store Connect (the bundle ID is registered there as an app, not just as an App ID in the developer portal).

3. mob.exs configured:

   config :mob_dev,
     app_store_connect: [
       key_id:    "ABC123XYZ4",
       issuer_id: "69a6de76-aaaa-bbbb-cccc-1234567890ab",
       key_path:  "~/.appstoreconnect/AuthKey_ABC123XYZ4.p8"
     ]

What --ios does

Runs xcrun altool --upload-app with API-key auth. altool validates the IPA, uploads it, and returns when Apple has accepted the build for processing. Apple then takes 5-15 minutes to process the build before it appears in TestFlight.
