Guard-Xcoder

This guard uses the Xcoder to provide monitoring of your Xcode projects for changes and launch clean, build, and package actions in response.

Guard-xcoder does not simply monitor all source files within a directory, it looks at the project file and finds the source files that are specifed in a target's source build files. It also currently will rebuild when the global PCH file has been changed as well.

Make sure you have guard installed.

Install the gem with:

gem install guard-xcoder

Add it to your Gemfile:

gem 'guard-xcoder'

And then add a basic setup to your Guardfile:

guard init xcoder

guard 'xcoder', :actions => [ :clean, :build, :test ] do
  watch('TestProject')
end

guard 'xcoder' :actions => [ :build ] do
  watch('TestProject//Specs')
end

guard 'xcoder' :actions => [ :clean, :build, :package ] do
  watch('TestProject//AppStoresubmission')
end

Currently guard-xcoder does not re-evaluate the file watchers when the project file changes. This should hopefully be present in a future release.
