Package Manager for Xcode
Today I found a project worthy of the attention of all developers writing for iOS / Mac OS and using XCode, the plugin manager for XCode. The name of this project is Alcatraz . Seeing this miracle, I immediately wanted to test it, since the installation is done in three ways:
1. Start the terminal
2. Paste the following code into the terminal window:
3. Press Enter.
Restart Xcode and in the Window menu we see a new item that opens the package manager window, also available via the Shift-Cmd-9 hot key combination.
The package manager window looks like this:
In the upper part there are buttons of filters by plugin type. The main part of the window displays a list of available plugins. Installation and removal is done by simply clicking on the checkmark in front of the plugin. If something went wrong when installing the plugin, you will see an error message in the status bar at the bottom of the window. In case of a successful installation, a recommendation to restart the environment will appear in the same place. Immediately, I could not deliver only XCode color themes, but I didn’t really try.
Now the list of plugins is not great, but it can be supplemented by forking the repository on github, making your edits and sending a pull-request. I could find on this list 90% of the plugins I've ever heard of.
The package manager itself is in the alpha version and there may be crashes and other difficulties. But this, in my opinion remarkable, the project can be forgiven.
This product was destined to appear and I am very glad to see it. He will occupy a worthy place in my daily activities along with Cocoapods. I hope you enjoy it too.
