Apple continues to make by-passing GateKeeper more difficult… which is no problem for desktop apps that can be signed and notarized.
Has anyone found a way to sign and notarize Console apps?
Console apps can be signed the same way as desktop apps.

Yes they can be signed but can they be notarized?
Why not?
A little bit older, some tools have been replaced with newer ones, but this might be a good starting point:
Thanks Thomas I will check it out… but not hopeful as Xojo does not actually build an .app.
Xojo made console apps are trickier to code sign because of how they’re made, but I did spend a lot of time adapting App Wrapper to sign them.
If you run into problems with using App Wrapper let me know.

Sam… I am able to sign the app but not Notarize. Can App Wrapper now Notarize them?
A while back I ran into some issues with python console apps when I tried to notarize them with AppWrapper. The notarization process corrupted the apps. Haven’t tried on the new version though.
