Mop up garbage translation files and clean junk from your .pbxproj file!
If you hate manually cleaning the .pbxproj file in your iOS projects of empty translation (.strings) files, translation files for .xibs that no longer exist, or slowly removing pbx references to files that no longer exist one by one, then this is the repo/script for you! (Ryan Higa's voice echos in your mind; you hear him selling you a DVD about mops.)
To use the mopbx.py script, you need to provide the paths to your Xcode
project root and to your project.pbxproj file. (Paths can be relative
or absolute.)
For example, if your project structure looks something like this:
.
├── mopbx.py
├── ExampleProj
│ ├── AppDelegate.swift
│ ├── Assets.xcassets
│ │ ├── AppIcon.appiconset
│ │ │ └── Contents.json
│ │ └── Contents.json
│ ├── Base.lproj
│ │ ├── LaunchScreen.storyboard
│ │ └── Main.storyboard
│ ├── Info.plist
│ ├── SceneDelegate.swift
│ └── ViewController.swift
├── ExampleProj.xcodeproj
│ ├── project.pbxproj
│ ├── project.xcworkspace
│ │ ├── contents.xcworkspacedata
│ │ ├── xcshareddata
│ │ │ └── IDEWorkspaceChecks.plist
│ │ └── xcuserdata
│ │ └── user.xcuserdatad
│ │ └── UserInterfaceState.xcuserstate
│ └── xcuserdata
│ └── user.xcuserdatad
│ └── xcschemes
│ └── xcschememanagement.plist
├── ExampleProjTests
│ ├── ExampleProjTests.swift
│ └── Info.plist
└── ExampleProjUITests
├── ExampleProjUITests.swift
└── Info.plist
Then executing your script will be as follows:
python mopbx.py -p ExampleProj/ -x ExampleProj.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj
And if you decide you want to execute the changes that script wants to make,
you'll need to add the flag --not-dry when you run the script.
If you only want to use this script in your own projects, just copy and paste
the script (MOPbx/src/mopbx.py); no need to install anything. I purposely
developed this script to be as dependency-light as possible.
If you want to contribute, install the requirements using
pip install -r requirements.txt
These dependencies are to assist with testing.
This repo uses pytest, so to run all tests, you can simply run in you
terminal the following command (after doing the setup process) FROM WITHIN
THE MOPbx/tests/ DIRECTORY:
pytest
Running tests from the MOBPbx/tests/ directory is important because the
relative paths to the test data won't match up otherwise.
