# iOTA
*Frontend template for over-the-air app distribution*
[](https://hub.docker.com/r/andtechstudios/iota)
# Usage
## Docker (Recommended)
1. Clone [this repository](https://github.com/andtechstudios/iota).
2. Create an environment file (or use [this](https://github.com/andtechstudios/iota/blob/master/.env.sample)). The file should be name `.env` and placed in the same folder as the `docker-compose.yml`.
3. Run `docker-compose up`.
4. Update the variables in `data/metadata.json` when necessary. Make sure to reload the container.
The iOTA site will be served at `localhost:8080`.
## Static Site
You can deploy *iOTA* as part of your CI/CD workflow.
### iOS
1. Copy the `exampleSite` folder from this repository.
2. Add your iOS app (`.ipa`).
3. Replace the [iOTA environment variables](https://github.com/andtechstudios/iota/wiki/Environment-Variable-Reference) in the following files:
* `index.html`
* `manifest.list`
> You can use `envsubst` to assist with this step.
4. Optional: replace `static/icon.png` with *your* app's icon.
5. Publish the website to a **publicly accessible** location (i.e. GitHub Pages).
6. From the iPhone/iPad you want to install the app onto, visit the web page. Follow the instructions to download the app to your device.
> Reminder: make sure the iPhone/iPad is included in the provisioning profile used to build the iOS app. (Refer to [Apple Developer docs](https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/ToolsLanguages/Conceptual/DevPortalGuide/DistributinganApp/DistributinganApp.html) for more details)
### Android
1. Copy the `exampleSite` folder from this repository.
2. Add your Android app (`.apk`).
3. Replace the [iOTA environment variables](https://github.com/andtechstudios/iota/wiki/Environment-Variable-Reference) in the following files:

> You can use `envsubst` to assist with this step.
4. Optional: replace `static/icon.png` with *your* app's icon.
5. Publish the website (i.e. GitHub Pages).
