The purpose of this project is to allow editing an XCode 4 project.

This project is based upon the python project Mod PBXProj by Calvin Rien (http://the.darktable.com/). Due to the recent addiction of PostProcessBuild attribute to Unity, I found much useful having a C# version of the library.

Clone this repo somewhere under Assets/Editor in your project. If your project is not yet checked into git, then you'll need to do the appropriate setup and add this as a submodule (google: git-submodule).

If you already use git for your project, then just add this as a submodule.

You can use the XCProject class in any part of your editor and postprocess code. Taking advantage of the great powers of the new PostProcessBuild attribute, I suggest to use a small cs static class to run through all the projmods files in your asses folder and simply apply them to the newly created xcode project.

using UnityEditor;

public static class XCodePostProcess
{
    [PostProcessBuild]
    public static void OnPostProcessBuild( BuildTarget target, string path )
    {
        // Create a new project object from build target
        XCodeEditor.XCProject project = new XCodeEditor.XCProject( targetPath );

        // Find and run through all projmods files to patch the project
        var files = System.IO.Directory.GetFiles( Application.dataPath, "*.projmods", SearchOption.AllDirectories );
        foreach( var file in files ) {
            project.ApplyMod( file );
        }

        // Finally save the xcode project
        project.Save();
    }
}

The projmods file is a simple text file containing a JSON object. It will be used to pass the parameters to the ApplyMod method. This is the file I use for the GameCenter plugin as a brief example:

{
    "group":       "GameCenter",
    "libs":        [],
    "frameworks":  ["GameKit.framework"],
    "headerpaths": ["Editor/iOS/GameCenter/**"],
    "files":       ["Editor/iOS/GameCenter/GameCenterBinding.m",
                    "Editor/iOS/GameCenter/GameCenterController.h",
                    "Editor/iOS/GameCenter/GameCenterController.mm",
                    "Editor/iOS/GameCenter/GameCenterManager.h",
                    "Editor/iOS/GameCenter/GameCenterManager.m"],
    "folders":     [],
    "excludes":    ["^.*.meta$", "^.*.mdown^", "^.*.pdf$"]
}

• group: all files and folders will be parented to this group;
• libs: add libraries to build phase;
• frameworks: add frameworks to the project;
• headerpaths: add header paths to build phase;
• files: add single files to the project;
• folders: create a subgroup and add all files to the project (recursive);
• excludes: file mask to exclude;

Note: all paths are relative to projmods location
