Xcode Makefiles

Overview

Paul Solt Paul@SuperEasyApps.com Version: 0.9.8

Install a focused Makefile + scripts toolkit into an existing or newly scaffolded Xcode project.

Canonical conventions:

  • AGENT_NAME is the only agent env var.
  • Per-agent paths live under build/:
    • build/DerivedData/<AGENT_NAME>
    • build/logs/<AGENT_NAME>
    • build/cache/<AGENT_NAME>
    • build/tmp/<AGENT_NAME>

Install

skills/xcode-makefiles/scripts/install.sh \
  --project-dir /path/to/project \
  --app-name WalkTrack \
  --platform ios

Common flags:

  • --project-dir PATH required
  • --mode install|upgrade default install
  • --dry-run preview changes only

Toolkit flags:

  • --app-name NAME required
  • --platform ios|macos required
  • --sim-name NAME optional, defaults to auto for iOS
  • --namespace NAME optional, installs Makefile.NAME and scripts/NAME/
