Monitoring changes and transparency/echo mode

[konrad1977]

First of all, this is my life saver for continue using Emacs, thanks!

1. I usually automate my builds in Emacs and parses the warnings/errors directly from the output from Xcodebuild. I would love to have a transparency/echo mode from xcode-build-server parse that just echoes back everything from xcodebuild so I can continue to do both parsing while I am compiling and updating the BSP .compile file.

• For echoing back xcodebuild's output yet another flag like -quiet would be nice, then you just get the warnings, notes and errors. An easy start is just to return outputs that starts with a path and if the compilation for successful or not.

2. Would be nice to have a tool that detect changes in the rootfolder and subfolders and automatically runs an Xcodebuild and updates the indices for BSP. So we get some kind of background indexing. I think this is possible within emacs, but it would be nice to have for every user not just emacs users.

I'm glad this project was useful to you. For your question, yaroslavyaroslav has the same idea as you, see #21 and #22.

For your first need, Although it is convenient to have the -transparency or -quiet option, currently it can be achive by shell, eg: xcodebuild ... | tee build.log; xcode-build-server parse -a build.log 1>/dev/null 2>&1.

Ah I see, I must try to integrate this then. Thanks.

Nice, but it doesn't detect changes in the project right now and recompiles the project right?

if you mixed xcode build from ui, and xcodebuild from cli, the build cache maybe invalidate and recompile your code. I also want to know what xcodebuild params are compatible with xcode build from ui
