Mediapipe: Cannot generate xcode project

[HebaMohamed]

I followed the instructions step by step but still unable to generate the xcode project with tulsi
This is the error I got each time I press "generate" with tulsi, any help please ?

I'm stuck here as well. Initially, I was getting the same error when trying to build tulsi, but I made the changes to my WORKSPACE as recommended here:
https://github.com/bazelbuild/tulsi/pull/106/commits/aa98d4ca71281448cdb6878631ebdedc7813d2cc
Now tulsi is up and running, but hitting "generate" creates the same error as above.

This may be a better solution. Instead of downgrading Bazel, you can update your apple rules in your mediapipe WORKSPACE file. Apple has changed things recently and does not accept release tags anymore (see the comments at the top of their README). They want you to use a commit. I changed my rules to match what's in the master repository for the iOS hello world example and that has worked well for Bazel 1.0.0.
