Back in 2014 I was working at AltspaceVR (a social virtual reality startup) and we had Mac and Windows versions of the product. I set up a Mac Mini at the office to do the Mac builds, and it also ran a Windows VM under Parallels to do the Windows code signing. (The actual Windows builds ran in the cloud and we sent them down to the Windows VM for signing and then it sent them back up to the cloud.) We had a Digicert code signing certificate that used a hardware key connected to the Windows VM. Unfortunately it required a password to be manually entered each time the code was signed. To automate this, I wrote a little AutoHotkey script that watched for the password dialog and entered the password. There wasn't any RDP issue because we didn't use RDP, just a Windows VM that didn't need any user intervention. (It could have been a separate physical machine, but since we had the Mini anyway and it had the capacity, it was convenient to have it do both the Mac builds and the Windows code signing.) I sometimes think there are few problems that AutoHotkey cannot solve. |
