R.swift: Info plist is not resolved using environment variables, this is causing errors

Created on 16 Nov 2019 · 16Comments · Source: mac-cain13/R.swift

I installed with CocoaPods.

Then i got warning [R.swift] File could not be parsed as Info Plist from URL: /path/to/project/module_name/ $(SRCROOT)/project_name/my_path/Info.plist on xcode 11.2.1.

However i can use R.swift methods.

Using version

Xcode 11.2.1
CocoaPods: 1.8.4
R.swift (5.1.0)
R.swift.Library (5.1.0)

I have the same issue.
Also I've specified "Info.plist File" field (under "Build Settings" -> "Packaging") relatively just as a variable $(PATH_TO_INFO_PLIST) that goes from .xcconfig.

Maybe it's possible to make an ability to turn Info.plist scanning phase off as a workaround.

We're currently not using the environment variables Xcode exposes to load the info plist file, we should use these instead of looking in the Xcode config ourselves so that all variables are correctly resolved.

Example of environment vars relating to info plist:
export INFOPLIST_EXPAND_BUILD_SETTINGS=YES export INFOPLIST_FILE=ResourceApp/Info.plist export INFOPLIST_OUTPUT_FORMAT=binary export INFOPLIST_PATH=ResourceApp2.app/Info.plist export INFOPLIST_PREPROCESS=NO export INFOSTRINGS_PATH=ResourceApp2.app/English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings

As a workaround, while this issue persists:

It’s possible to manually configure which generators are run: https://github.com/mac-cain13/R.swift/blob/master/Documentation/Ignoring.md#only-run-specific-generators-exclude-rsomething

By not running the info generator, no warning should be shown.

Unfortunately the workaround does not work for me. With a clean build and only the image, string, font and color generators specified the issue still persists.

Indeed, with only --generators color specified it still outputs the following line twice on execution:

warning: [R.swift] File could not be parsed as InfoPlist from URL: file:///.../Info.plist

Was it resolved? thanks https://github.com/mac-cain13/R.swift/blob/66358ef688818a346e7cedbffbe59f48fdcfe82e/Sources/RswiftCore/ResourceTypes/PropertyList.swift#L24

I submitted a PR to at least remove this warning if you are not running the plist generators. The PR was merged into this project but there hasn't been a release yet. I'll ask the maintainers if they can do that.

This has been fixed in R.swift 5.2.0 release.

Finally 😄

mac-cain13 on 23 Apr 2020

still has the issue on 5.2.0 release, i was able to workaround by adding --generator types in buildphases

cd YourSPM
SDKROOT=macosx
swift run -c release rswift generate --generators image,string,color,file,font,nib,segue,storyboard,reuseIdentifier,entitlements,id "$SRCROOT/R.generated.swift

input files: $TEMP_DIR/rswift-lastrun
output files: $SRCROOT/R.generated.swift

p.s: iam using manual installation method
