xcversion is not listing all installed versions of Xcode #209

Closed samdmarshall closed 7 years ago

samdmarshall commented 7 years ago

I have build machines that have multiple installs of Xcode on them, and when queried through xcversion list these are the results i see:

jenkins-slave03:~ jenkins$ xcversion list
8
8.1 (installed)
8.2
8.2.1 (installed)
8.3 (installed)
8.3.1 (installed)

However, when i check against the spotlight database, the results are different:

jenkins-slave03:~ jenkins$ mdfind "kMDItemCFBundleIdentifier == 'com.apple.dt.Xcode'"
/Applications/Xcode-8.3.2.app
/Applications/Xcode-8.3.app
/Applications/Xcode-8.2.1.app
/Applications/Xcode-8.3.1.app
/Applications/Xcode-8.1.app
/Applications/Xcode-7.3.1.app
/Applications/Xcode-8.app

Is there a reason why the 7.3.1 install seems to be filtered out of this list?

I'm not too familiar, but looking at the docs it seems like xcversion list lists the available Xcode versions to download:

xcversion list --help
Usage:

    $ xcversion list

      List Xcodes available for download.

Since xcversion downloads and installs from the developer portal, is there a reason why 7.3.1 wouldn't be included in that list (given that it is available on the dev portal).

KrauseFx commented 7 years ago

Can you try running xcversion list --all? That should list all previous releases too 👍

KrauseFx commented 7 years ago

This behavior is mentioned in the usage section of the docs https://github.com/KrauseFx/xcode-install#usage

samdmarshall commented 7 years ago

ah-ha, thank you for helping clear that up @KrauseFx!

KrauseFx commented 7 years ago

I totally agree though, that this is confusing, and maybe we should just print a warning at the end of the output, indicating that there is a --all parameter available.

samdmarshall commented 7 years ago

I would suggest that xcversion list shows a union of:

  1. all versions of the current major version
  2. all installed versions

and the --all behavior is kept as-is. i feel the common case of using this for local development or on CI machines would want to have this behavior easily accessible.
