iArrogant: Convert .entitlements into codesignable entitlements

Build Status License

What is this?

iArrogant is a command line tool that converts a XML style plist .entitlements file into the proper XML style plist .xcent used by codesign; purpose built for our testing CI system @Fittr.

Before you run your entitlements through iarrogant, it may look like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>com.apple.developer.healthkit</key>
    <true/>
</dict>
</plist>

After running through iarrogant

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>application-identifier</key>
    <string>ZMEAK3CXPR.com.myapp</string>
    <key>aps-environment</key>
    <string>production</string>
    <key>com.apple.developer.healthkit</key>
    <true/>
    <key>com.apple.developer.team-identifier</key>
    <string>ZMEAK3CXPR</string>
    <key>get-task-allow</key>
    <false/>
</dict>
</plist>
