File Structure

• application contains the files that will be installed on the user's machine upon running the installer.
• darwin/Resources contains resources used by the installer, such as the banner image, html pages, and other required texts.
• darwin/scripts contains the preinstall and postinstall scripts that are used to install necessary dependencies when the installer runs.

Creating the Installer

To compile the files into a .pkg installer:

./macOS-x64/build-macos-x64.sh [APPLICATION_NAME] [APPLICATION_VERSION]

This will create the .pkg installer under the /macOS-x64/target/pkg directory. The installer can now be double clicked inside Finder and the installer will run through the necessary steps to install the fEMR software.
