Cars 2.0 – Hacking XBee, Arduino, RaspberryPi

July 15, 2014 No comments yet

A bunch of friends and I decided to race for the 24 hours of Lemons. Geeks that we are, we had to come up with a way to get sensor data out from the car to the pit and communicate with the driver. That’s how ClariceNet came to life (our theme was the “Silence of the lambs”).

A combination of Arduino, RaspberryPi, iPad, Wifi and XBee for communications.

Automatic HockeyApp/TestFlight Upload XCode Script

March 27, 2012 1 comment

If you’ve ever want to distribute your iOS app to beta testers, reviewers or investors, you know how painful it is.

Usually when there’s pain, there’s a Business opportunity. Indeed. You can now use services such as TestFlight & HockeyApp to automate the process of distributing AdHoc builds.

But it’s still cumbersome to manually upload builds.

Thankfully both services have an API so it’s just a matter of writing a script and hook it up inside XCode.

  • Fist off, if you work with a team, make sure to “share” your target scheme.

  • Second, Edit Scheme and add a Pre-Action Run Script to Build. This will increment the CFBundleVersion in your plist when you make an adhoc build. This ensures that all builds uploaded to TestFlight or HockeyApp have a different version (They use a combination of you CFBundleShortVersionString and CFBundleVersion). [This script assumes that you created an adhoc configuration with “Adhoc” in its name]

Here’s the script.

  • Then, select Archive and choose the adhoc build configuration you created.

  • Then add a Post-Action Run script to Archive. [Make sure to select your target in “Provide Build Settings from”]

Here’s the script. Make sure to update your API keys and select the service you want using the UPLOAD_SERVICE variable.

Enjoy!
