xUnique | ||
======= | ||
|
||
**xUnique**, is a pure Python script to regenerate `project.pbxproj`, a.k.a the Xcode project file, and make it unique and same on any machine. | ||
|
||
As you may know, the [`UUID`](http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4122.txt) generated by Xcode in the file is not unique for the same added file( or other entries like groups,build phases,etc.) on different machines, which makes it a developer's nightmare to merge and resolve conflicts in `project.pbxproj`. | ||
|
||
**xUnique** convert all the 96bits `UUID`(24 hex chars) to MD5 hex digest(32 hex chars) | ||
|
||
### What it does & How it works | ||
---------------- | ||
1. convert `project.pbxproj` to JSON format | ||
2. Iterate all `objects` in JSON and give every UUID an absolute path, and create a new UUID using MD5 hex digest of the path | ||
* All elements in this json object is actually connected as a tree | ||
* We give a path attribute to every node of the tree using its unique attribute; this path is the absolute path to the root node, | ||
* Apply MD5 hex digest to the path for the node | ||
3. Replace all old UUIDs with the MD5 hex digest and also remove unused UUIDs if any | ||

4. ~~Sort project file using my modified [`sort-Xcode-project-file`](https://github.com/truebit/webkit/commits/master/Tools/Scripts/sort-Xcode-project-file), supports following new features:~~ | ||
* ~~sort `PBXFileReference` and `PBXBuildFile` sections~~ | ||
* ~~avoid modified changes in Git/SVN if no change made in the project file~~ | ||
* ~~sort `PBXFileReference` and `PBXBuildFile` sections~~ | ||
* ~~avoid modified changes in Git/SVN if no change made in the project file~~ | ||
4. Sort the project file inlcuding `children` list, `files` list, `PBXFileReference` list and `PBXBuildFile` list using pure Python | ||
* see `sort_pbxproj` method in xUnique.py if you wanna know the implementation; | ||
* It's ported from the [perl script](https://github.com/truebit/webkit/commits/master/Tools/Scripts/sort-Xcode-project-file), I have to admit that Perl is really very good at text processing... | ||
5. All above operations are what this script done for you;) | ||
|
||
|
||
### How to use | ||
-------------- | ||
1. Put **xUnique.py** file in your project repository somewhere and add it as track file via `git add path/to/xUnique.py`, so all members could use the same script | ||
2. create a git hook: `ln -s path/to/xUnique.py .git/hooks/pre-push` | ||
3. Add permission `chmod 555 .git/hooks/pre-push` | ||
* use hook `pre-push` instead of `pre-commit` is a safe consideration: you decide to commit the newly generated project file or not | ||
4. In all your branches, uniquify `project.pbxproj` file in either way: | ||
* make some changes and commit. Try to push, git hook would be triggered | ||
* manually run script: `python path/to/xUnique.py path/to/MyProject.xcodeproj` and then committing changes. | ||
5. All Done;) | ||
|
||
### Examples | ||
------------ | ||
* [APNS Pusher](https://github.com/blommegard/APNS-Pusher) is a Xcode project which contains a subproject named "Fragaria" as git submodule. Use _xUnique_ to convert it. You can clone [my forked repo](https://github.com/truebit/APNS-Pusher) and try to open and build it in Xcode. You will find that `xUnique` does not affect the project at all. | ||
* The initial diff result could be found [here](https://github.com/truebit/APNS-Pusher/commit/fb27af54627ca0836aa5eb847766441b991220bf). | ||

### NOTICE | ||
---------- | ||
* All project members must add this `pre-push` hook. Thus the project file would be consistent in the repository. | ||
* Tested supported `isa` types: | ||
* `PBXProject` | ||
* `XCConfigurationList` | ||
* `PBXNativeTarget` | ||
* `PBXTargetDependency` | ||
* `PBXContainerItemProxy` | ||
* `XCBuildConfiguration` | ||
* `PBXSourcesBuildPhase` | ||
* `PBXFrameworksBuildPhase` | ||
* `PBXResourcesBuildPhase` | ||
* `PBXBuildFile` | ||
* `PBXReferenceProxy` | ||
* `PBXFileReference` | ||
* `PBXGroup` | ||
* `PBXVariantGroup` | ||

### Contributions | ||
----------------- | ||
I only tested on one single project and one project with a subproject, so maybe there should be more unconsidered conditions. | ||
