## Building

1. Download a [restic binary](https://github.com/restic/restic/releases/latest) for macOS and place the extracted binary named `restic` at the project folder

2. If you don't need a code signing, run `make disable-code-signing`

3. Otherwise create a `Config.xcconfig` file at the project folder with the following content:

    ```env

    CODE_SIGN_STYLE = Automatic

    DEVELOPMENT_TEAM = 12ABCDE45F

    MARKETING_VERSION = 0.0.0

    APP_BUNDLE_ID = ru.makinen.ResticScheduler

    APP_RESTIC_BINARY = restic

    ```

    Note: set `DEVELOPMENT_TEAM` to your Development Team ID.

4. Open `ResticScheduler.xcodeproj` in Xcode and build the project
