Publishing

#Publishing Your App

Publishing your app is similar to building, but in addition NativePHP will upload the build artifacts to your chosen updater provider automatically.

#Running a build

php artisan native:publish

This will build for the platform and architecture where you are running the build.

Make sure you've bumped your app version in your .env file before building

#Cross-compilation

You can also specify a platform to build for by passing the os argument, so for example you could build for Windows whilst on a Mac:

php artisan native:publish win

Possible options are: mac, win, linux.

Cross-compilation is not supported on all platforms.

#GitHub Releases

If you use the GitHub updater provider, you'll need to create a draft release first.

Set the "Tag version" to the value of version in your application .env file, and prefix it with v. "Release title" can be anything you want.

Whenever you run native:publish, your build artifacts will be attached to your draft release. If you decide to rebuild before tagging the release, it will update the artifacts attached to your draft.
