cocoapods-rome

Rome makes it easy to build a list of frameworks for consumption outside of Xcode, e.g. for a Swift script.

Installation

$ gem install cocoapods-rome

Important

In the examples below the target 'caesar' could either be an existing target of a project managed by cocapods for which you'd like to run a swift script or it could be fictitious, for example if you wish to run this on a standalone Podfile and get the frameworks you need for adding to your xcode project manually.

Usage

Write a simple Podfile, like this:

MacOS

platform :osx, '10.10'

plugin 'cocoapods-rome'

target 'caesar' do
  pod 'Alamofire'
end

iOS

platform :ios, '8.0'

plugin 'cocoapods-rome', { :pre_compile => Proc.new { |installer|
    installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
        target.build_configurations.each do |config|
            config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '4.0'
        end
    end

    installer.pods_project.save
},

    dsym: false,
    configuration: 'Release'
}

target 'caesar' do
  pod 'Alamofire'
end

then run this:

pod install

and you will end up with dynamic frameworks:

$ tree Rome/
Rome/
└── Alamofire.framework

Advanced Usage

For your production builds, when you want dSYMs created and stored:

platform :osx, '10.10'

plugin 'cocoapods-rome', {
  dsym: true,
  configuration: 'Release'
}

target 'caesar' do
  pod 'Alamofire'
end

Resulting in:

$ tree dSYM/
dSYM/
├── iphoneos
│   └── Alamofire.framework.dSYM
│       └── Contents
│           ├── Info.plist
│           └── Resources
│               └── DWARF
│                   └── Alamofire
└── iphonesimulator
    └── Alamofire.framework.dSYM
        └── Contents
            ├── Info.plist
            └── Resources
                └── DWARF
                    └── Alamofire

Hooks

The plugin allows you to provides hooks that will be called during the installation process.

pre_compile

This hook allows you to make any last changes to the generated Xcode project before the compilation of frameworks begins.

It receives the Pod::Installer as its only argument.

post_compile

This hook allows you to run code after the compilation of the frameworks finished and they have been moved to the Rome folder.

It receives the Pod::Installer as its only argument.

Example

Customising the Swift version of all pods

platform :osx, '10.10'

plugin 'cocoapods-rome', 
    :pre_compile => Proc.new { |installer|
        installer.pods_project.targets.each do |target|
            target.build_configurations.each do |config|
                config.build_settings['SWIFT_VERSION'] = '4.0'
            end
        end

        installer.pods_project.save
    },
    :post_compile => Proc.new { |installer|
        puts "Rome finished building all the frameworks"
    }

target 'caesar' do
    pod 'Alamofire'
end
