🛠️ xcodebuild.nvim

A plugin designed to let you migrate your iOS, iPadOS, and macOS app development to Neovim. It provides all essential actions for development, including building, launching, and testing.

✨ Features

🌳 Nvim-tree Integration

Xcodebuild.nvim is integrated with nvim-tree to let you manage your project and files in a convenient way.

Every change in the file tree presented by nvim-tree will be automatically reflected in the Xcode project.

⚡️ Requirements

Neovim environment

Neovim 0.9.5+
telescope.nvim to present pickers.
nui.nvim to present floating code coverage report.
nvim-tree to visually manage your project files.
nvim-dap and nvim-dap-ui to debug apps.

External tools

xcbeautify - Xcode logs formatter (you can set a different tool or disable formatting in the config).
Xcodeproj to manage project files within Neovim.
pymobiledevice3 to debug on physical devices and/or run apps on devices below iOS 17.
xcode-build-server to make LSP work properly with xcodeproj/xcworkspace.
codelldb to debug iOS and macOS Swift apps.
Xcode - make sure that xcodebuild and xcrun simctl work correctly. Tested with Xcode 15.

📦 Swift Packages Development

This plugin supports only iOS and macOS applications. However, if you develop Swift Package for one of those platforms, you can easily use this plugin by creating a sample iOS/macOS project in your root directory and by adding your package as a dependency.

🦾 Extra Features

🔬 Debugger Configuration

nvim-dap plugin lets you debug applications like in any other IDE. On top of that nvim-dap-ui extension will present for you all panels with stack, breakpoints, variables, logs, etc.

See nvim-dap configuration

To configure DAP for development:

Download codelldb VS Code plugin from: HERE. For macOS use darwin version. Just unzip vsix file and set paths below.
Install also nvim-dap-ui for a nice GUI to debug.
Make sure to enable console window from nvim-dap-ui to see simulator logs.

return {
  "mfussenegger/nvim-dap",
  dependencies = {
    "wojciech-kulik/xcodebuild.nvim"
  },
  config = function()
    local dap = require("dap")
    local xcodebuild = require("xcodebuild.integrations.dap")

    dap.configurations.swift = {
      {
        name = "iOS App Debugger",
        type = "codelldb",
        request = "attach",
        program = xcodebuild.get_program_path,
        cwd = "${workspaceFolder}",
        stopOnEntry = false,
        waitFor = true,
      },
    }

    dap.adapters.codelldb = {
      type = "server",
      port = "13000",
      executable = {
        -- set path to the downloaded codelldb
        -- sample path: "/Users/YOU/Downloads/codelldb-aarch64-darwin/extension/adapter/codelldb"
        command = "/path/to/codelldb/extension/adapter/codelldb",
        args = {
          "--port",
          "13000",
          "--liblldb",
          -- make sure that this path is correct on your side
          "/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/LLDB.framework/Versions/A/LLDB",
        },
      },
    }

    -- disables annoying warning that requires hitting enter
    local orig_notify = require("dap.utils").notify
    require("dap.utils").notify = function(msg, log_level)
      if not string.find(msg, "Either the adapter is slow") then
        orig_notify(msg, log_level)
      end
    end

    -- sample keymaps to debug application
    vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>dd", xcodebuild.build_and_debug, { desc = "Build & Debug" })
    vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>dr", xcodebuild.debug_without_build, { desc = "Debug Without Building" })
    vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>dt", xcodebuild.debug_tests, { desc = "Debug Tests" })

    -- you can also debug smaller scope tests:
    -- debug_target_tests, debug_class_tests, debug_func_test,
    -- debug_selected_tests, debug_failing_tests
  end,
}

📲 Debugging On iOS 17+ Device

Since iOS 17, a new secure connection between Mac and mobile devices is required. Xcodebuild.nvim uses pymobiledevice3 to establish a special trusted tunnel that is later used for debugging. However, this operation requires sudo (more details).

Showing a pop-up to enter a password every time you run a debugger would be quite annoying. That's why the plugin provides a small script (tools/remote_debugger) that wraps the only two operations requiring sudo (starting a secure tunnel and closing it).

This allows you to configure passwordless access just for this single file and make it work with xcodebuild.nvim. You can even make a local copy if you are worried that the content of this file could be changed in the future.

Passwordless access to `remote_debugger`

You can disable password requirement by updating /etc/sudoers file. Make sure to use the command below, otherwise you may break your sudo command:

sudo visudo -f /etc/sudoers

Append this line, but first update the path and the username:

YOUR_USERNAME ALL = (ALL) NOPASSWD: /Users/YOUR_USERNAME/.local/share/nvim/lazy/xcodebuild.nvim/tools/remote_debugger

Creating a local copy of `remote_debugger`

If you don't want to configure the passwordless permission to the file that could be changed in the future, you can make a local copy of this script, set your local path in the config commands.remote_debugger, and update /etc/sudoers accordingly.

Please remember that you will have to update this file manually if it changes in the future.

🐛 Application Logs

If you installed nvim-dap and nvim-dap-ui, you can easily track your app logs. The plugin automatically sends logs to the console window provided by nvim-dap-ui.

To see SIMULATOR logs you don't need to run the debugger. You can just show the console and run the app (remember that the app must be launched using xcodebuild.nvim).

:lua require("dapui").toggle()

Important

Logs printed by NSLog will appear only if the debugger is NOT attached.

You can always clear the console window by calling:

:lua require("xcodebuild.integrations.dap").clear_console()

Logs without using nvim-dap

If you don't want to use nvim-dap you can always print logs directly to your terminal by calling (from your root directory):

tail -f .nvim/xcodebuild/app_logs.log

This approach works especially well if you are using tmux.

🚥 Lualine Integration

You can also integrate this plugin with lualine.nvim.

See Lualine configuration

local function xcodebuild_device()
  if vim.g.xcodebuild_platform == "macOS" then
    return " macOS"
  end

  if vim.g.xcodebuild_os then
    return " " .. vim.g.xcodebuild_device_name .. " (" .. vim.g.xcodebuild_os .. ")"
  end

  return " " .. vim.g.xcodebuild_device_name
end

------

lualine_x = {
  { "' ' .. vim.g.xcodebuild_last_status", color = { fg = "Gray" } },
  { "'󰙨 ' .. vim.g.xcodebuild_test_plan", color = { fg = "#a6e3a1", bg = "#161622" } },
  { xcodebuild_device, color = { fg = "#f9e2af", bg = "#161622" } },
},

Global variables that you can use:

Variable	Description
`vim.g.xcodebuild_device_name`	Device name (ex. iPhone 15 Pro)
`vim.g.xcodebuild_os`	OS version (ex. 16.4)
`vim.g.xcodebuild_platform`	Device platform (macOS or iPhone Simulator)
`vim.g.xcodebuild_config`	Selected build config (ex. Debug)
`vim.g.xcodebuild_scheme`	Selected project scheme (ex. MyApp)
`vim.g.xcodebuild_test_plan`	Selected Test Plan (ex. MyAppTests)
`vim.g.xcodebuild_last_status`	Last build/test status (ex. Build Succeeded [15s])

🧪 Code Coverage

See how to configure

Using xcodebuild.nvim you can also check the code coverage after running tests.

Make sure that you enabled code coverage for desired targets in your test plan.
Enable code coverage in xcodebuild config:

code_coverage = {
  enabled = true,
}

Toggle code coverage :XcodebuildToggleCodeCoverage or :lua require("xcodebuild.actions").toggle_code_coverage(true).
Run tests - once they're finished, code coverage should appear on the sidebar with line numbers.
You can jump between code coverage marks using :XcodebuildJumpToPrevCoverage and :XcodebuildJumpToNextCoverage.
You can also check out the report using :XcodebuildShowCodeCoverageReport command.

The plugin sends XcodebuildCoverageToggled event that you can use to disable other plugins presenting lines on the side bar (like gitsigns). Example:

vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd("User", {
  pattern = "XcodebuildCoverageToggled",
  callback = function(event)
    local isOn = event.data
    require("gitsigns").toggle_signs(not isOn)
  end,
})

Coverage Report Keys:

Key	Description
`enter` or `tab`	Expand or collapse the current node
`o`	Open source file

📸 Snapshot Tests Preview

This plugin offers a nice list of failing snapshot tests. For each test it generates a preview image combining reference, failure, and difference images into one. It works with swift-snapshot-testing library.

Run :XcodebuildFailingSnapshots to see the list.

👨‍💻 API

If you want to use functions directly instead of user commands, then please see xcodebuild.actions module.

🧰 Troubleshooting

Configuration

Processing the project configuration is a very complex task that relies on parsing multiple crazy outputs from xcodebuild commands. Those logs are a pure nightmare to work with. This process may not always work.

In case of any issues with, you can try manually providing the configuration file .nvim/xcodebuild/settings.json in your root directory.

See a sample settings.json file
