The macOS app is built for a single architecture (matching the build
machine, via ${ARCH}), but relocatable-python pulls the python.org
universal2 installer, so the entire Python.framework ships both arm64
and x86_64 slices. PostgreSQL-sourced dylibs may be universal too. The
foreign slice is dead weight that bloats the bundle and DMG.
Add a _strip_architecture step, run after _complete_bundle and before
code-signing (lipo invalidates signatures, so the existing sign passes
re-sign the thinned binaries). It removes the universal2 stragglers
(python*-intel64 launcher, config-*-darwin/python.o) and lipo-thins
every fat Mach-O in the bundle to the build arch, preserving file modes
and warning on anything lacking the target slice. Already single-arch
inputs (Electron and its helpers) are skipped.
pgAdmin macOS Builds
Required Packages
Either build the sources or get them from macports or similar:
-
Yarn & NodeJS
-
PostgreSQL 12 or above from http://www.postgresql.org/
-
Python 3.6+ (required for building). The build environment should run this version of python in response to the python command.
Building
-
To bundle a different version of Python from the default of 3.13.1, set the PGADMIN_PYTHON_VERSION environment variable, e.g:
export PGADMIN_PYTHON_VERSION=3.13.11 -
If a path different from the default of /usr/local/pgsql for the PostgreSQL installation has been used, set the PGADMIN_POSTGRES_DIR environment variable appropriately, e.g:
export PGADMIN_POSTGRES_DIR=/opt/local/pgsql -
If you want to codesign the appbundle, copy codesign.conf.in to codesign.conf and set the values accordingly.
-
If you want to notarize the appbundle, copy notarization.conf.in to notarization.conf and set the values accordingly. Note that notarization will fail if the code isn't signed.
-
To build only DMG file, go to pgAdmin4 source root directory and execute:
make appbundleTo build both DMG and ZIP files, go to pgAdmin4 source root directory and execute:
make appbundle BUILD_OPTS="--zip"This will create the python virtual environment and install all the required python modules mentioned in the requirements file using pip, build the runtime code and finally create the app bundle and the DMG and/or ZIP in ./dist directory.
