XBuild

XBuild is a thin wrapper on top of xcodebuild and xctool that allows you to configure your favorite iOS & Mac build tool for your project.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'xbuild'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install xbuild

It is recommended to install xcpretty to prettify xcodebuild's output.

Usage

  xbuild [OPTIONS] ACTION [WORKSPACE] [SCHEME]

  Parameters:
    ACTION                        The build action to be run. (clean|build|test|archive|analyze|install)
    [WORKSPACE]                   Sets the project's workspace.
    [SCHEME]                      Sets the project's scheme.

  Options:
    -x, --dry-run                 Runs all the process without actually calling the build tool.
    -p, --pretty                  Uses xcpretty to format build output (only when using xcodebuild).
    -v, --verbose                 Enables verbose mode.
    -F, --xctool                  Uses xctool instead of xcodebuild as the build tool.
    -h, --help                    print help

You can have a .xbuild.yml on the current working directory where xbuild command is run. In this file you can configure the options, workspace and scheme. Here is an example:

dry_run: false
pretty: false
verbose: true
xctool: true
scheme: MyProjectShared
workspace: MyProject.xcworkspace

Options and arguments passed through the command line have more precedence that the ones defined in the .xbuild.yml file.

The scheme and workspace arguments are mandatory and must be defined either using the .xbuild.yml or through the command line.

Action arguments

You can configure action arguments to be included for a specific action in your .xbuild.yml. For example lets say that you want to add the arguments -foo 1 -bar 2 for the build action. You should defined those actions like this"

dry_run: true
pretty: true
verbose: true
xctool: false
scheme: MyProjectShared
workspace: MyProject.xcworkspace
action_arguments:
  build:
    foo: 1
    bar: 2

When you run the xbuild command with the previous .xbuild.yml you will get the following output:

XBuild::Runner: Executing command 'set -o pipefail && xcodebuild -workspace   MyProject.xcworkspace -scheme MyProjectShared build -foo 1 -bar 2 | xcpretty -c'
