Customize `GoogleService-Info.plist` target membership

[amirRTA]

Hello, I have used XcodeGen the Great 🥇 in our application and it works flawlessly unless there is one little issue with GoogleService-Info.plist files. I have three GoogleService-Info.plist files, each related to a separate application environment (develop, stage, and production) and I have to use them in a single Xcode target. Following is the MyApp structure.

targets:
  MyApp:
    type: application
    platform: iOS
    sources:
      - path: MyApp
      - path: MyApp/Resources/GoogleService-Infos/DEV/GoogleService-Info.plist
        buildPhase: none
      - path: MyApp/Resources/GoogleService-Infos/INT/GoogleService-Info.plist
        buildPhase: none
      - path: MyApp/Resources/GoogleService-Infos/PROD/GoogleService-Info.plist
        buildPhase: none

I added a script in the build phases to select the proper Info.plist file and then copy it inside my app's bundle directory. In this case, I have to set an unselected target membership on them and don't need to have them on copy bundle sources inside build phases.

I tried to set buildphases: none for them but it didn't work. This note inside the project spec > buildPhase already mentioned it I guess Note that Info.plist files will never be added to any build phases, no matter what this setting is..

      - path: Source/Resources/GoogleService-Infos/INT/GoogleService-Info.plist
        buildPhase: none

I'm using the 2.38.0 version of XcodeGen. I'm encountering the opposite case of #1045 please help me THX. 🙏

i have a similar use case but have 3 targets

ApplicationProd ApplicationStage ApplicationDebug

in the file structure i have

YourApp//Configurations/Debug <- which has all debug specifig files YourApp/Configurations/Stage <- which has all stage specifig files YourApp/Configurations/Production <- which has all prod specifig files

under sources

on the production target you'd do like this.. sources:

• path: YourApp excludes:
  • Configurations/Debug/**
  • Configurations/Stage/**

and mimick for the others similarly thats how i solved it atleast

[alessdiimperio]

another solution could be to use the createIntermediateGroups on the sources and then have different configurations

another solution could be to use the createIntermediateGroups on the sources and then have different configurations

      - path: MyApp/Resources
        excludes:
          - "GoogleService-Infos"
          - "GoogleService-Infos/**"
          - "GoogleService-Infos/**/*.*"
      - path: MyApp/Resources/GoogleService-Infos/DEV
        type: folder
        buildPhase: none
      - path: MyApp/Resources/GoogleService-Infos/INT
        type: folder
        buildPhase: none
      - path: MyApp/Resources/GoogleService-Infos/PROD
        type: folder
        buildPhase: none

I managed to solve it by defining those path types as folder (as @alessdiimperio mentioned, createIntermediateGroups option). Please notice that the build phase option none will not apply to 'info.plist' files but it will work on folder type.

This is what it should look like. It's an intermediate group referenced directly from disk with no target membership. This worked for me.
