Xcode Scripts

Helpful scripts for Xcode.

Bot Environment Variables

Here are some useful Xcode bot environment variables:

• XCS_OUTPUT_DIR: Where the Xcode bot stores the current integration. All output files can be found here.
• XCS_BOT_NAME: The name of the bot.
• XCS_ARCHIVE: This is the full path to the .xcarchive file. You do not need to construct this path relative to the output directory.
• XCS_PRODUCT: For iOS apps, this is the path to the resulting .ipa file. You should construct a full path to this file relative to the output directory.

CocoaPods

Running CocoaPods in Xcode bots is easy. My pod install script looks like this:

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
cd ios
pod install

Note that the cd is environment specific. When you configure an Xcode bot, it tries to match your local environment as much as possible. In this case my code is located in ~/Documents/Code/north/tiiny/ios. So when the bot clones the git repository, it will put it in a folder called ios.

Deployment Scripts

I use the deployment scripts like this:

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
export CMD_HOCKEY_TOKEN=abcd1234
export CMD_PRODUCT_NAME=App
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/calebd/xcode-scripts/master/bot-scripts/hockey.rb)"

Contributions

I welcome pull requests with any scripts you’d like to share with anyone! I’d like to make the process of setting up Xcode bots as easy as possible :)

Send any feedback to @calebd.
