IOS 7.1 App releases an alternative solution after Dropbox dies

Because everyone knows the reason Dropbox hangs up, the free HTTPS file sharing link is gone, the vast majority through the Dropbox HTTPS share link to publish the iOS app's children's shoes tragedy. Today will give you a recruit.

Analyze iOS 7.1 installation links

Format Itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=https://xxx.plist

1. Must be a secure link to https.

2. The link ends with a. plist

3, the most important point this https://xxx.plist must be able to parse directly into the text

So it's clear that you just need to find a space that supports HTTPS, keeps the original file name, and can parse the. plist file directly into text.

HTTPS Space selection

First, exclude various network disks. The reason: Trouble can't integrate well with the development environment. So what is the space to meet our requirements? Oh, this space is easy to find, now open source code hosting services to save us, the mainstream code hosting services are basically HTTPS, support for open source benefits ah.

Now it's time to get dry.

1. Choose Githut or Git.oschina.net to build a project such as "iOS 7.1 app release"

2. Git or svn check out "iOS 7.1 app release" to a local directory such as D:\ios 7.1 application publishing \

3. Copy the plist file of the app you want to publish to D:\ios 7.1 application release \

4. Git or SVN commits and synchronizes to the remote server

5, open the first step to establish the project homepage. At this point you should see the. plist file that you just synced up to.

6. On the project file list, click Open the. plist file that you just uploaded. Click on raw data or raw to see the original, unmodified. plist file contents. Copy the address in the browser address bar to replace the red part

Itms-services://?action=download-manifest&url=https://xxx.plist

After Ok,dropbox's death, our IOS 7.1 app release workaround was solved in a programmer's way.

You are welcome to provide a more simple way to publish.
