I've developed a program named FMiner, it's a web scraping software base on PySide(webkit). I moved it to Mac OS X with Py2App, and made it to a dmg file with the script like this:

os.system(r'macdeployqt fminer.app’)
os.system(r'hdiutil create fminer-mac-' +gdata.VERSION + r'.dmg -volname "fminer" -fs HFS+ -srcfolder "dist"')

It work fine, when people download and install it.

But how to submit it to app store? I just found this link: Is it possible to deploy a Python application on the Mac App Store?, but it's outdate. And I'm not family with xcode, I need the details of steps.

I wrote a comprehensive article explaining how to build and submit a Python app to the Mac App Store. It includes source code and build scripts for a barebones example app that I have successfully submitted.

  • Very thanks, I will try this. My app use PySide, do you know whether PySide used "Deprecated APIs"? – user2647646 Jun 26 '14 at 10:15
  • In my initial testing with PySide, the app that py2app built crashed on launch. If you determine how to fix that and let me know, I'll update my example app. – David Foster Jun 27 '14 at 20:55
