rules_xcodeproj

This repository contains rules for Bazel that can be
used to generate Xcode projects.

If you run into any problems with these rules, please
file an issue!

Compatibility

Xcode 13.2.1
Bazel 5.0.0 and above
rules_swift 0.26.0 and above
rules_apple 0.33.0 and above

Please refer to the
release notes for a
given release to see which versions it is compatible with.

Quick setup

Add the following to your WORKSPACE file to add the external repositories,
replacing the version number in the url attribute with the version of the
rules you wish to depend on:

load("@bazel_tools//tools/build_defs/repo:http.bzl", "http_archive")

http_archive(
    name = "com_github_buildbuddy_io_rules_xcodeproj",
    url = "https://github.com/buildbuddy-io/rules_xcodeproj/archive/refs/heads/main.tar.gz",
    strip_prefix = "rules_xcodeproj-main",
)

load(
    "@com_github_buildbuddy_io_rules_xcodeproj//xcodeproj:repositories.bzl",
    "xcodeproj_rules_dependencies",
)

xcodeproj_rules_dependencies()

load(
    "@build_bazel_rules_apple//apple:repositories.bzl",
    "apple_rules_dependencies",
)

apple_rules_dependencies()

load(
    "@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:repositories.bzl",
    "swift_rules_dependencies",
)

swift_rules_dependencies()

load(
    "@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:extras.bzl",
    "swift_rules_extra_dependencies",
)

swift_rules_extra_dependencies()

load(
    "@build_bazel_apple_support//lib:repositories.bzl",
    "apple_support_dependencies",
)

apple_support_dependencies()

Examples

Minimal example:

load("@build_bazel_rules_apple//apple:ios.bzl", "ios_application")
load("@build_bazel_rules_swift//swift:swift.bzl", "swift_library")
load(
    "@com_github_buildbuddy_io_rules_xcodeproj//xcodeproj:xcodeproj.bzl",
    "xcodeproj",
)

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

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

xcodeproj(
    name = "xcodeproj",
    project_name = "App",
    targets = [
        ":App",
    ],
    tags = ["manual"],
)

You can then create the Xcode project with:

bazel run //:xcodeproj

See the examples directory for sample setups.
