This is a feature proposal
Initial Situation:
Your xcode project tree looks like this:
You have a Xcode project without a Framworks group and you want to add a new framework using pbxProject.prototype.addFramework.
Current behaviour:
The Frameworks group is created but not added to the mainGroup of the project which references all files (that are not part of a subgroup) and all groups (that are no subgroups).
If you open the updated xcode project with xcode you see the following:
This is because xcode cannot find a reference to the Frameworks group on the mainGroup and therefore "autofixes" the project by adding the library added with pbxProject.prototype.addFramework to a newly generated group Recovered References.
Expected behaviour:
The Framework group is created and also automatically added to the mainGroup.
When you open the project in xcode it should look like this:
Current workaround:
Add the Frameworks group to mainGroupmanually:
const project = xcode.project(projectPath);
project.parseSync();
project.addFramework(path.resolve(frameworksDirectory, 'GoogleInterchangeUtilities.framework'), {
customFramework: true,
embed: true,
link: true,
});
const mainProject = project.getPBXGroupByKey(project.getFirstProject().firstProject.mainGroup);
if (!mainProject.children.some(children => children.comment === 'Frameworks')) {
const [groupKey] = Object.entries(project.hash.project.objects['PBXGroup']).find(
([, group]) => group.name === 'Frameworks',
);
project.addToPbxGroup(groupKey, project.getFirstProject().firstProject.mainGroup);
}If you are okay with this feature proposal I would love to implement it!
