Tips on building and running the sample app? about valet HOT 1 CLOSED

Hi @perlguy99! Thanks for your interest in Valet and sorry you're running into trouble with the ValetTouchIDTest target.

We don't have instructions for how to get this project running on a device – this project was initially intended to aid me in my ability to test TouchID while we were first developing the feature 😅. You're right there are a few gotchas to getting this running with your own certificates. Running on device (unlike the simulator) requires code-signing which introduces a few fun complications.

To get the sample project running, you'll need to follow steps similar to our steps for getting unit tests running locally on macOS. Basically you'll need to change the bundle ID to a custom ID, and change all the Team IDs to be your development team rather than my development team.

It might honestly be easier to copy the ValetTouchIDTestViewController class into a project you already have building on device and displaying that view controller from your existing project. Note that the ValetTouchIDTest app doesn't require any special Xcode capabilities so it should be plug-and-play.

I'm going to close this issue out, since getting ValetTouchIDTest running locally was never intended to be supported. But I hope I've given you enough information to unstick yourself. Feel free to respond below if you still need help – I'll still get notified even though this issue is closed.
