# rules_xcodeproj

This repository contains rules for [Bazel](https://bazel.build) that can be
used to generate Xcode projects from targets in your workspace.

If you run into any problems with these rules, please check our
[FAQ](docs/faq.md), check if [another issue already exists][issues] and comment
on it, or [file a new issue][file-an-issue]!

[issues]: https://github.com/MobileNativeFoundation/rules_xcodeproj/issues
[file-an-issue]: https://github.com/MobileNativeFoundation/rules_xcodeproj/issues/new/choose

## Features

- Full support for Xcode features:
  - Indexing (i.e. autocomplete, syntax highlighting, jump to definition)
  - Debugging
  - Runtime sanitizers
  - Inline warnings and errors
  - Test selection and running
  - Embedded Targets (App Clips, App Extensions, and Watch Apps)
  - Dynamic frameworks
  - Xcode Previews
- Focused Projects
  - Include a subset of your targets in Xcode
  - Unfocused targets are built with Bazel
- Comprehensive Bazel rules support
  - Core Bazel C/C++/Objective-C
  - rules_swift
  - rules_apple
  - Most likely your custom rules as well!
- Minimal configuration needed (see the [usage](#usage) section below)
- It “just works”

We’ve also documented the [high-level design goals](docs/design-goals.md) of
the ruleset.

More versions of these tools and rulesets might be supported, but these are the
ones we’ve officially tested with.

## Installation

From the
[release you wish to use](https://github.com/MobileNativeFoundation/rules_xcodeproj/releases),
copy the Bzlmod snippet into your repository.
If you want to manually build a release archive, you can use this command:
`bazel build //distribution:release`.

## Usage

Please see the documentation in the [docs](docs/README.md) directory and
examples in the [examples](examples/README.md) directory.

### Simple iOS example

Given a root level `BUILD` file:
```python
load(
  "@build_bazel_rules_apple//apple:ios.bzl",
  "ios_application",
  "ios_unit_test",
)
load("@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:swift.bzl", "swift_library")
load(
    "@rules_xcodeproj//xcodeproj:defs.bzl",
    "top_level_target",
    "xcodeproj",
)

xcodeproj(
    name = "xcodeproj",
    project_name = "App",
    tags = ["manual"],
    top_level_targets = [
        top_level_target(":App", target_environments = ["device", "simulator"]),
        ":Tests",
    ],
)

ios_application(
    name = "App",
    bundle_id = "com.example.app",
    families = ["iphone", "ipad"],
    infoplists = [":Info.plist"],
    minimum_os_version = "15.0",
    visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
    deps = [":Lib"],
)

swift_library(
    name = "Lib",
    srcs = glob(["src/*.swift"]),
)

ios_unit_test(
    name = "Tests",
    bundle_id = "com.example.tests",
    minimum_os_version = "15.0",
    test_host = ":App",
    visibility = ["//visibility:public"],
    deps = [":TestLib"],
)

swift_library(
    name = "TestLib",
    srcs = glob(["test/*.swift"]),
)
```

You can then create the Xcode project with:

```shell
bazel run //:xcodeproj
```

The generated project will be in the workspace next to the `BUILD` file at
`App.xcodeproj`.
