Usage

Note: this README is intended to be a minimal, quick start guide. For a comprehensive explanation of XCHammer, see Introducing XCHammer and The XCHammer FAQ

Installation

Build and install to /usr/local/bin/

make install

Pinterest vendors XCHammer.app for reproducibility and simplicity.

Configuration

Generate using a XCHammerConfig.

xchammer generate <configPath>

Configuration Format

XCHammer is configured via a yaml representation of XCHammerConfig.

The configuration describes projects that should be generated.

# Generates a project containing the target ios-app
targets:
    - "//ios-app:ios-app"

projects:
    "MyProject":
        paths:
            - "**"

See XCHammerConfig.swift for detailed documentation of the format.

To learn about how Pinterest uses XCHammer with Bazel locally check out Pinterest Xcode Focused Projects.

Samples

Bazel build Xcode projects

XCHammer additionally supports Bazel building Xcode projects, which enables remote caching and other features. This feature is experimental.

# WORKSPACE
local_repository(
    name = "xchammer_resources",
    path = "/Path/To/xchammer.app/Contents/Resources",
)

# BUILD.Bazel
load("@xchammer_resources//:xcodeproject.bzl", "xcode_project")
xcode_project(
    name = "MyProject",
    targets = [ "//ios-app:ios-app" ],
    paths = [ "**" ],
)

Xcode progress bar integration

XCHammer provides a path to optionally integrate with Xcode's build system and progress bar.

  • Install support for Xcode's progress bar for Xcode 11
xchammer install_xcode_build_system
  • add --build_event_binary_file=/tmp/bep.bep to your .bazelrc
  • make sure Xcode's new build system is enabled
