History

Originally the plugin was supposed to handle adding / removing imports on the fly, which soon proved to be a more difficult task than I originally imagined, and took me on an exploration path of Clang libtooling and other cool stuff. I recently decided that I would instead make a GUI popup for adding an #import which seems to be a better approach to the problem in the first place. The code base contains a lot of parts that were originally meant to parse the code and make a tree (similar to Clang's AST) to find the #import statements in text. Due to performance reasons, this was dumped in favor of regex-es.

Roadmap

There are several things that are to be added to the project

  • faster algorithm to find the header files associated with a certain target
  • adding frameworks to the selected target build phases as soon as you add an #import in your file
  • @import support

Known Issues

  • the search includes the whole path of the header
  • the table cell highlights the wrong piece of string
  • user headers are not really handled properly
  • there is an issue with header duplication (especially visible with CocoaPods)

Contributing

  • check issues section
  • branch from develop and PR to develop
  • use gitflow for creating a feature branch
