pyzule-rw / cyan
a rewrite of pyzule that doesn't (completely) suck !!
wouldn't a go rewrite be really cool? (or in rust or something, adding features to this makes me realize PYTHONM FUCKING SUCKS SOMEONE PLEASE REWRITE IN LIKE ANY COMPILED AND STATICALLY TYPED LANGUAGE PLEASE!!!!!!!
features
you can open an issue to request a feature :D !! also see my recommended flags
- generate and use shareable .cyan files to configure IPAs!
- inject deb, dylib, framework, bundle, and appex files/folders
- automatically fix dependencies on CydiaSubstrate (cyan uses ElleKit!)
- copy any unknown file/folder types to app root
- change app name, version, bundle id, and minimum os version
- remove UISupportedDevices
- remove watch app
- change the app icon
- fakesign the output ipa/tipa/app
- merge a plist into the app's existing Info.plist
- add custom entitlements to the main executable
- thin all binaries to arm64, it can LARGELY reduce app size sometimes!
- remove all app extensions (or just encrypted ones!)
install instructions
cyan supports linux, macOS, WSL, and jailbroken iOS! all either x86_64 or arm64/aarch64 !!
first, make sure you have ar and tar installed
also obviously install python, version 3.9 or greater is required
the zip and unzip commands are optional dependencies, they may fix issues when extracting certain IPAs with chinese characters, etc
linux/WSL/macOS instructions
- install pipx
- install OR update cyan:
pipx install --force https://github.com/asdfzxcvbn/pyzule-rw/archive/main.zip - if you want to inject dylibs ON AARCH64 LINUX:
pipx inject cyan lief - if you want to change app icons (iOS NOT supported):
pipx inject cyan Pillow
jailbroken iOS instructions / automated environment (github workflow, etc)
- install OR update cyan:
pip install --force-reinstall https://github.com/asdfzxcvbn/pyzule-rw/archive/main.zip
