SaFi Bank Space : Access for Mobile app Development

This page serves to give you a better idea about the various systems involved in our mobile app development cycle - from coding to shipping. It also serves as a guide to help your fellow engineers recall the kind of accesses they need to grant you if you’ve just joined. Note that depending on your role and how sensitive the data in a given system is, access may be restricted to you.

Code / Development

Item	Purpose	Default access	Remarks
Mobile Code Repo	Mobile app source code.	Developer	-
Fastlane Non-Prod Repo	Required to fetch and install iOS `Development` profiles for local debugging	Developer	-

For Android local debugging, the mobile source code is all that you require. For iOS, however, You will need to request for your iPhone/iPad to be whitelisted in our enterprise Apple Developer account (get help from someone who has access), as well as the Fastlane non-production repository. Note that whitelisting iOS devices is subject to an annual quota of 100-device per annum - therefore please make sure you intend to support for iOS development if you’re going to consume a slot!

Build Generation

Note that we are using Fastlane for the generation of our .ipa (iOS) files. Fastlane allows us to easily store application profiles that are needed for compiling the app in a repository of our choice, and to automatically fetch from it to generate a build. This saves us the need to grant every single developer access to sensitive configurations in App Store Connect. See the official docs for Fastlane here to find out about the other features it provides. Also, take a look at the scripts we have configured in app/app_safi/ios/fastlane/Fastfile.
