How can I get the project target

[draveness]

How can I get the project target. because when I use this script to add files to Pods project, the code seems not work, But if I drag the folder to Pods project, it can works. This is my code

project = XcodeProject.Load(pbxproj_file_path)
project.remove_group_by_name('UIKit', True)
project.save()

if production:
    main_group = project.get_groups_by_name('DKNightVersion')[0]
    uikit_group = project.get_or_create_group('UIKit', None, main_group)
else:
    main_group = project.get_or_create_group('DKNightVersion')
    pod_group = project.get_or_create_group('Pod', None, main_group)
    class_group = project.get_or_create_group('Classes', None, pod_group)
    uikit_group = project.get_or_create_group('UIKit', None, class_group)

groups = json.load(open(json_file_path))

for group, files in groups.iteritems():
    new_group = project.get_or_create_group(group, None, uikit_group)
    for f in files:
        project.add_file(f, new_group)

project.save()

I might need to do some research about this one. Couple of questions:

1. Are you opening the pods project?
2. Your goal is to add it to both targets at the same time?
3. What kind of file are you trying to add? (extension of the files)
4. Does it work if you add them in another non-pods project?

[draveness]

1. I am opening the pods project.
2. I would like to add these first just to Pods project first target.
3. .h and .m
4. Yes, it works, when I developing my pods, But when I submit the pods and manage it with cocoapods, and run this script to add files to Pod project, some of the code there cannot be executed.

[kronenthaler]

can you provide a pod's xcode project?

[draveness]

Through email?

[kronenthaler]

share it in a gist. https://gist.github.com/

[draveness]

This is the correct project https://gist.github.com/Draveness/0c0ced9fb54bd30b8ce9

[draveness]

This is a wrong proj https://gist.github.com/Draveness/2e913c74c7f24878da1f which is added through this:

project = XcodeProject.Load(pbxproj_file_path)
project.remove_group_by_name('UIKit', True)
project.save()

main_group = project.get_groups_by_name('DKNightVersion')[0]
uikit_group = project.get_or_create_group('UIKit', None, main_group)
groups = json.load(open(json_file_path))

for group, files in groups.iteritems():
    new_group = project.get_or_create_group(group, None, uikit_group)
    for f in files:
        project.add_file(f, new_group)

project.save()

[kronenthaler]

I tested the following script

#!/usr/bin/python

import sys
from mod_pbxproj import XcodeProject

pathToProjectFile = 'test/test.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj'
project = XcodeProject.Load( pathToProjectFile )

framework_path = 'System/Library/Frameworks/WebKit.framework'
framework_group = project.get_or_create_group('Frameworks')
project.add_file(framework_path, parent=framework_group)
project.add_file('source.m', framework_group)
project.add_file('source.h', framework_group)

project.save()

The files were added properly to ALL targets (see images below, note the black letters instead of red ones.)

My suggestion though, is not to use add_file directly, but use add_file_if_doesnt_exist instead, it adds some validations and avoid duplications.

[draveness]

Do you means I are supposed I should use add_file_if_doesnt_exist instead of all all_file methods?

[kronenthaler]

wait, i didn't see the second gist. I'm rechecking...

[draveness]

OK, I am trying now..

[kronenthaler]

I found something. Can you:

1. comment out you project.remove_group_by_name('UIKit', True)
2. remove the group manually from xcode
3. rerun your code.

I suspect there was an exception during the remove process that aborted the execution of the rest.

[draveness]

I tried, but not work.... I am really confused with this...

[kronenthaler]

I committed a change regarding the remove_group_by_name. please update and try again. If still fails i have to dig deeper in the issue, it will take a while.

[draveness]

I have already use xcodeproj instead, I think it is a problem this doesnot adding files to correct target.

Thx for your help :+1:
