What is it

The IPA Distribution class is an PHP class which creates the Wireless Manifest from any IPA (iPhone/iPad/iPad application file) which is needed for iOS Wireless App Distribution.
If you put your Provisioning Profile of the application in the same folder it will look it up and returns the url to it.
iOS Wireless App Distribution is available since iOS 4, it will not work on iPhone OS 3 or lower!

How to Use

Setup

Upload the class file to a webserver and make the folder in which it stands writable (it needs to make some temporary files and an folder where the manifest is created) and include the class after which you can call the action.

	require("ipaDistrubution.php");
	$ipa = new ipaDistrubution("Location of IPA file");

Getting the link

After you make a new instance you can get the install url with:

	$ipa->applink;	

If you open the URL in Safari on your iOS 4 device it will ask you if it can install the application (if the right Provision Profile is installed).

The url to the Provision Profile can be retreived by

	$ipa->provisionprofile;

Other variables that you can use are the app's icon (if GD library is installed and the iTunesArtwork is included in the IPA) and the app's title

	$ipa->icon;
	$ipa->appname;
