BETA mode. Your feedback is highly appreciated!

Official CLI (ta-CLI) for TestApp.io app distribution to upload your Android (APK) and iOS (IPA) directly from this command line and notify your team members to install and share feedback.

Installation

macOS & Linux

curl -Ls https://github.com/testappio/cli/releases/latest/download/install | bash

Windows

Currently, we are not supporting ta-cli config for Windows.

Download latest windows release

ta-cli.exe publish --api_token=[Your API Token] --app_id=[Your AppID] --release=android --apk=C:/path/to/app.apk

OR using the config JSON:

1. Create the config file in $HOME/.ta-cli.json and add the following:

You can use vim if installed vim $HOME/.ta-cli.json

{
  "api_token": "Your API Token",
  "app_id": "Your App ID",
  "release": "both",
  "apk": "/user/path/to/android/app.apk",
  "ipa": "/user/path/to/ios/app.ipa",
  "release_notes": "",
  "git_release_notes": true,
  "git_commit_id": false,
  "archive_latest_release": false,
  "notify": true
}

2. From your terminal, navigate to the extracted folder
