Re-sign ipa for iOS

Question

I am trying to re-sign an existing ipa file with new mobileprovision and distribution certificate. I am following these links re-sign and this . However these require distribution certificate to be installed. Can I re-sign the ipa without installing the certificate in KeyChain? Something similar to passing the certificate details (password) in command line.

Answer 1

No. You can not specify the certificate using command line arguments. You must need to import the Distribution Certificate into Keychain first. Once installed, you can resign the app via command line arguments.
