Setting permission not working about applesimulatorutils HOT 8 CLOSED

Here is the command I ultimately ended up using in my yml file to set the permission. It does work once I set the permissions on the UDID rather than the name.

applesimutils --simulator $(fbsimctl 'iPhone 7' list | tr -s '' | cut -d ' ' -f 1 | head -1) --bundle "com.myapp.bundle" --setPermissions "notifications=YES"

You need to provide the simulator UUID for the --simulator argument. Use xcrun simctl list / fbsimctl list to obtain the UUID of the simulator you are using.

I've opened an enhancement issue for this. I'll see what I can do.

I tried once with the simulator UUID. Maybe that is the trick. Subsequent runs still seemed to run against the open iPhone 7 simulator and restarted the Springboard. So something is working on the simulator.

The main for me is how would I be able to use this in my CI script. I won't know the UUID on the remote machine where my tests are running, so I can't hardcode a UUID in. Is it possible to fuzzy logic the match and run on the closest match? Or first match?

For now, you can use fbsimctl "iPhone 7" list | tr -s ' ' | cut -d ' ' -f 1 | head -1 to obtain the UUID of the simulator you want to use in your CI.

It might be possible to somehow filter xcrun simctl list as well, but the output there is more complex / less convenient.

I'll give that a try. I appreciate the help.

Thanks for posting this. I will work on a future improvement to allow specifying the simulator by name.
