Fastlane TestFlight Builds

I've been working to figure out a good solution to pushing daily TestFlight builds to internal testers for our iOS application. Since these would be pushed daily, I do not want to use existing fastlane actions that generate a commit each time. What I would like to do is set the build of the app based on an environment variable (a build number generated by Jenkins).

This way, I would just export a build number from the jenkins job and use that to increment the build for the TestFlight upload.

After that I was planning on running this as a daily job.

Has anyone done something like this?

Jenkins already exports environment variables that you can use in your script.

You are not forced to do a commit everytime, you could simply checkout the latest code, and do something like:

lane :testflight_without_commit do 
  increment_build_number(build_number: ENV['BUILD_NUMBER'])
  gym
  pilot
end

This will locally set the build number to your jenkin's job build number, and compile an archive with the local changes. Don't commit, don't push, and you should be fine.
