mac-dist-helper-examples

Example projects for the mac-dist-helper Makefile which automates packaging macOS binaries for distribution

This code base has been developed by ZKM | Hertz-Lab as part of the project »The Intelligent Museum«.

Inspired by the Hello World Pure Data external using pd-lib-builder.

Quick Start

Clone this repository and it's dependencies:

git clone [email protected]:zkmkarlsruhe/mac-dist-helper-examples.git
git submodule update --init --recursive

Next, make sure all requirements are set up: mac-dist-helper requirements

Examples

These are very basic instructions to build both the examples and distribution images. For details, see the mac-dist-helper readme.

  • HelloWorld: simple Cocoa app
  • HelloOF: openFrameworks macOS application
  • hello: simple console program with a bundled dynamic library
  • hellopd: Pure Data C external library

To do a full clean on any example:

make clean dist-clean dist-clobber

HelloWorld

This is a basic single-window Cocoa application.

In the Xcode project Signing & Capabilities settings:

  • enable Automatically manage signing for Release and set the team
  • enable Hardened Runtime, if not set

Next, set the codesign identity in HelloWorld/Makefile.

Create a signed & notarized distribution dmg disk image with:

cd HelloWorld
make app dist-dmg

HelloOF

This is an openFrameworks application with an external data folder.

The Xcode project file is not included so you will need to generate it using the OF ProjectGenerator which is included with the openFrameworks distribution.

To (re)generate the Xcode project:

  1. Click the "Import" button in the ProjectGenerator
  2. Navigate to the project's parent folder ie. "mac-dist-helper-examples", select the base folder for the example project ie. "HelloOF", and click the Open button
  3. Click the "Update" button

Additionally, in the Xcode project Signing & Capabilities settings:

  1. enable Automatically manage signing for Release and set the team
  2. enable Hardened Runtime, if not set

Next, set the codesign identity in HelloOF/Makefile.

If everything went Ok, you should now be able to open the generated project and build/run the example.

Before building for distribution, make sure the OF lib itself is built by building the application once in Release mode with either Xcode or via make as make app doesn't do this. Then build the app export and notarized dmg with:

cd HelloOF
make
make app dist-dmg

hello

This is a C console program which links to a custom dynamic library. Both binaries need to be signed "in place" then packaged and notarized.

Before starting, set the codesign identity in hello/Makefile.

When building, the following extra steps are performed for distribution:

  • an Info.plist is embedded in each program executable using -sectcreate TEXT
  • the dynamic lib loading paths are set to @executable_path using install_name_tool

Build for distribution with:

cd hello
make
make dist-dmg

hellopd

This is a Pure Data external library which is built using the pd-lib-builder makefile. The pd_darwin file (renamed dylib) needs to be signed then packaged and notarized.

Before starting, set the codesign identity in hellopd/Makefile.

Build for distribution with:

cd hellopd
make
make dist-dmg

The Intelligent Museum

An artistic-curatorial field of experimentation for deep learning and visitor participation

The ZKM | Center for Art and Media and the Deutsches Museum Nuremberg cooperate with the goal of implementing an AI-supported exhibition. Together with researchers and international artists, new AI-based works of art will be realized during the next four years (2020-2023). They will be embedded in the AI-supported exhibition in both houses. The Project „The Intelligent Museum” is funded by the Digital Culture Programme of the Kulturstiftung des Bundes (German Federal Cultural Foundation) and funded by the Beauftragte der Bundesregierung für Kultur und Medien (Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media).

As part of the project, digital curating will be critically examined using various approaches of digital art. Experimenting with new digital aesthetics and forms of expression enables new museum experiences and thus new ways of museum communication and visitor participation. The museum is transformed to a place of experience and critical exchange.
