README.md

Packaging

Standalone executables are built with PyInstaller from a single cross-platform spec: packaging/neotalk.spec.

PyInstaller does not cross-compile: a macOS bundle must be built on macOS and a Windows executable on Windows.

macOS (.app)

uv run --extra build pyinstaller \
  --noconfirm --clean \
  --distpath dist --workpath build/pyinstaller \
  packaging/neotalk.spec

Result: dist/neotalk.app.

Windows (.exe)

On a Windows machine with Python and uv:

uv run --extra build pyinstaller `
  --noconfirm --clean `
  --distpath dist --workpath build/pyinstaller `
  packaging/neotalk.spec

Result: dist/neotalk.exe (a single self-contained file).

The Windows binary can also be produced in CI: see .gitea/workflows/build-windows.yaml (requires a Windows runner).

Icons

assets/icon.svg is the source. Regenerate icon.icns / icon.ico with packaging/make-icons.sh. The spec embeds them automatically.

Signing, notarizing and releasing (macOS)

  • sign-macos.sh signs a built neotalk.app with the Developer ID under the hardened runtime (entitlements.plist).

  • release-macos.sh <tag> builds, signs, notarizes, staples and optionally uploads the .zip to the Gitea releases page. Credentials come from the environment (never committed):

    # one-time: store notarization credentials in the keychain
xcrun notarytool store-credentials neotalk \
  --apple-id you@example.com --team-id M3K3T47KXF --password APP-SPECIFIC-PW

export NEOTALK_NOTARY_PROFILE=neotalk
export NEOTALK_GITEA_TOKEN=...   # optional, to publish the release
./packaging/release-macos.sh v0.1.0

Signing alone is not enough for a smooth download: an un-notarized app is still blocked by Gatekeeper. Notarization is what lets a friend open it normally.
