macOS App Bundle Update Script

update-plist-version.sh

This script automatically updates the Info.plist file with version information extracted from Se.cs.

Usage

./update-plist-version.sh [path-to-Se.cs] [path-to-Info.plist]

If no arguments are provided, it uses default paths:

• Se.cs: src/ui/Logic/Config/Se.cs
• Info.plist: installer/macBundle/SubtitleEdit.app/Contents/Info.plist

What it does

1. Extracts the version from Se.cs (e.g., "v5.0.0-beta32")
2. Converts it to macOS-compatible formats:
   • CFBundleShortVersionString: user-visible version (e.g., 5.0.0-beta32; for preview versions a dot is inserted, so v5.0.0-preview95 becomes 5.0.0-preview.95)
   • CFBundleVersion: numeric-only build number derived from the digits in the version (e.g., 50032 for v5.0.0-beta32, 500095 for v5.0.0-preview95)
3. Updates the Info.plist file with these values

Example

If Se.cs contains:

public static string Version { get; set; } = "v5.0.0-beta32";

The script will update Info.plist with:

• CFBundleShortVersionString: 5.0.0-beta32
• CFBundleVersion: 50032

Integration

This script is automatically called during the macOS build process in the GitHub Actions workflow before creating the app bundle.
