Carthage support? #8

Closed modocache closed 9 years ago

modocache commented 9 years ago

Not sure if you care about supporting Carthage, but I thought I'd note some difficulties I had trying to integrate Fox with github/Archimedes (I thought it'd make an awesome example during my talk):

  1. Fox isn't versioned at all yet, so I can't install it unless I use my fork, which has temporary versions like v0.0.1. Obviously Fox'll be versioned at some point, so this isn't really a big deal. Also, I've opened an issue for Carthage to support unversioned projects (see https://github.com/Carthage/Carthage/issues/136).
  2. Carthage seems to build the test targets, which include a "Check Pods Manifest.lock" phase. But since Carthage doesn't run pod install, this step fails.

Bullet two on that list blocked me, so I ended up using Git submodules. You can see the end result at this private repo: https://github.com/modocache/Archimedes-Fox/commit/19ae6a8ea5628b6b9e6eeb47fc91bd7e72bf7bcd

I think removing Cocoapods inside Fox and replace it with git submodules would fix this and cocoa pods isn't buying me much.

Yes, this will be versioned. Probably sometime after Thanksgiving.

@modocache, I switched Fox to use frameworks and removed the Cocoapods dependency. This should be the last major change.

Thanks! :100:

That really should have done the trick, but now Carthage is complaining about some other silly garbage:

*** Building scheme "Cedar iOS SenTestingKit Tests" in Fox.xcodeproj
A shell task failed with exit code 65:
** BUILD FAILED **

Which is pretty ridiculous, considering the Cedar scheme is only exposed because it's being tested in that repository. I've had enough--I'll just include Fox in my project using Git submodules! :rage:

I will leave this open, though, just in case someone wants to look into it later.

Whoops, actually we ran into this exact same problem with Quick--the solution is to create a workspace that contains Fox and all its dependencies. I think some consider this "more correct" whether you use Carthage or not.

jeffh commented 9 years ago

Ah, it makes sense to switch to a workspace then.

jeffh commented 9 years ago

I've moved Cedar into a workspace. I haven't ever got Carthage working, so I don't know if I'm missing something :(

I'm probably going to give up and let someone else try tackling this.
