Have you ever wondered how much time a day you spend waiting for Xcode to do your builds? Wonder no more, this SwiftBar or xbar (the BitBar reboot) plugin shows the time wasted right in your menu bar!
You can use this plugin with Swiftbar or xbar (the BitBar reboot)
So first install SwiftBar or xbar (FYI: I am using SwiftBar, so some features are SwiftBar only)
On the first run select a directory you wish to use as your plugin directory, for example ~/SwiftBarPlugins
.
If you are using macOS Monterey then you must install PHP, because it is not bundled in macOS anymore. E.g. from Homebrew: brew install php
and you must have path to php
executable in PATH variable.
Download the xcodeBuildTimes.1m.php
file from the sources
folder in this repository and place it the plugin folder and make it executable.
You can do it manually or via terminal
cd ~/SwiftBarPlugins
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/matopeto/xcode-build-times/master/sources/xcodeBuildTimes.1m.php --output xcodeBuildTimes.1m.php
chmod +x xcodeBuildTimes.1m.php
Before the first usage of the plugin you must configure the plugin. Just run:
php xcodeBuildTimes.1m.php configure
If you now refresh xbar/SwiftBar data you should see the script being loaded.
The final step is to make Xcode call the script on every build.
To do this open Preferences
| Behaviors
in Xcode and set the script to Run
when the Build
starts
fails
and succeeds
The script is called xcodeBuildTimes.1m.php
so xbar/SwiftBar will refresh the data every minute. If you want to use a different refresh interval, just change the 1m
in the script name to your desired interval.
You can find more info about the refresh intervals in the xbar/SwiftBar documentation.
