It would be nice to install it with bundle install / bundle

We're using an Xcode Build Tool Plug-in in our project, and this seems to be causing problems.

Here's the error report:
ERROR: line 979:3 mismatched input 'productRef' expecting {'platformFilter', 'platformFilters', 'name', 'target', 'targetProxy'}

And here's what the .pbxproj looks like:

	isa = PBXTargetDependency;
	productRef = F5F961FF2AD03AE000D334DA /* SwiftlintPlugin */;
};

Encountered after adding a standard Carthage copy frameworks phase.

Handle the LastSwiftMigration field

/* Begin PBXProject section */
		49B2C5F91DCCF3EB00E33350 /* Project object */ = {
			isa = PBXProject;
			attributes = {
				LastSwiftUpdateCheck = 0800;

				TargetAttributes = {
					49B2C6011DCCF3EB00E33350 = {
						CreatedOnToolsVersion = 8.0;
						LastSwiftMigration = 0800;
						ProvisioningStyle = Manual;
					};

Consider the following code excerpt:

49F4A5871C583A25007C84A1 /* files */ = {
    isa = PBXGroup;
    children = (
    );
    name = files;
    sourceTree = "<group>";
};

Because files is a token it will cause the following error:

mismatched input 'files' expecting {QUOTED_STRING, NON_QUOTED_STRING}

It appears as though using any tokens for these values causes the same error.

As PR #29 shows, there's an opportunity for Kin to work not only in batch mode, but integrated with text editors and IDEs, doing checks in the background.

For a better experience, we should make the parser faster. Without leaving the convenience of using ANTLR, maybe we could massage the input grammar a little bit or memoize things so that the latency between checks is reduced and doesn't scale poorly as the Xcode project gets bigger.

The following error is now invalid as ProvisioningStyle = Automatic; can be the last param.
ERROR: line 1320:6 mismatched input 'LastSwiftMigration' expecting '}'

A1F9D0091F5951EE0078CB66 = {
						CreatedOnToolsVersion = 8.3.3;
						DevelopmentTeam = CWB42KSFAW;
						LastSwiftMigration = 0900;
						ProvisioningStyle = Automatic;
					};

When using kin with no arguments we should make sure there is only one xcodeproj directory to look for the target file, if there is more than one then we should return an error.

In the future we might let the user choose which one he wants to use

Hello,
I tried to run kin after pip3 install but i always have the error : kin: command not found

Hi,

I tried to run kin for the first time and I keep getting this error. I am not sure why.

In order to make it interoperable with other tools, kin should return exit with an error code if it finds any error in the target file

Trying this out on our project, I'm getting what appear to be false positives.

Thanks for building this tool!

Consider the following code excerpt:

B3AF46E021071CA6002211EE /* C */ = {
    isa = PBXGroup;
    children = (
    );
    name = C;
    sourceTree = "<group>";
};

Because the path is only a single character it causes the following error:

mismatched input 'C' expecting {QUOTED_STRING, NON_QUOTED_STRING}

The problem does not occur if the string is quoted.

I'm working on a project which project file has 38749 lines. I executed Kin when I messed up resolving a conflict on a project file and it saved my life again but for some time I couldn't see any feedback about what kin was doing and I thought something went wrong.

In order to improve the project usage, it could be great if we can add any visual feedback like a message or a progress bar shown to the user while kin is doing some magic.

I'd really like to collaborate with this project so if you tell me where to start looking at I can take a look and try to implement it by myself :)

The following project file is not able to be parsed properly:

https://github.com/tuist/XcodeProj/blob/549d676/Fixtures/iOS/BuildSettings.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj

Show a message telling the user that the project.pbxproj is OK

While having an option to specify a project.pbxproj file can be useful Kin should find that file in the current directory by default.
Just perform a search for something like *.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj in the current directory if called with no parameters

Test files not following the syntax

The following will produce the error:

path = 0840;

References that contain only numbers also have the same issue.

Similar to #18

Unable to get kin to run. I believe the upload to PyPi is botched?

Right now we are requiring antlr-runtime for python2, we can create another build for python 3 requiring the proper version of antlr.

I downloaded kin but cannot run on project. I donot believe it just me couldn't follow the instructions.
In Usage section,
it mentions download with pip but pip is not available on new MacBooks. if Pip3 is the option then cool But the next step is less instructive than the download section.
After downloading, run kin it states however packages installed from pip can not be directly called from command line.
That's why, I started with python3 command to open an interpreter. It didn't work with directly calling kin or importing kin.
Couple re-try and re-start weren't helpful as well. Then, I searched for a better guide. Not a chance of course.
The only useful resource was this medium article. After that, I tried to kin to command line. I found this. Usage of pipx helped me to get there.
After following the instructions for pipx download. I finally was able to use kin in my computer.
This process shouldnot be this hard. This can be updated so quickly and the next person should not have spend as much time as I spent.
So, How is this usage instructions improved? and How can I help?

Consider the following code excerpt:

/* Begin PBXShellScriptBuildPhase section */
B346FC962179468800C49108 /* Run gen68k */ = {
  isa = PBXShellScriptBuildPhase;
  inputPaths = (
    $BUILD_DIR/$CONFIGURATION/gen68k,
  );
};

Removing the dollar signs or the slash (/) before the dollar sign ($) resolves the issue.

In addition to 24 character UUID objects, there can also be 32 character hex objects (they seem to be in Pods.xcodepro files and xUnique can convert them), and also 14 character IDs.

Adding additional HEX objects here and supporting 14-32 of them is a rudimentary workaround.

A newly discovered issue are objects with a purely numerical 24 character UUID. Support for this can be added with | NUMBER but the solution becomes even less elegant.

I've just updated my kin version from 1.6 to 1.7 and I got this error when running kin on a regular project:

ANTLR runtime and generated code versions disagree: 4.6!=4.5.2

This could not be directly related to kin, if you need more information just let me know :)

The grammar changes in #64 and #61 failed to commit because they were merged too quickly. The grammar compiled for the tests only and did not get committed.

Merging #66 should resolve the issue the grammar should be automatically updated.

Running Kin against this project causes the following errors:

The project has been updated with Xcode 12.2 (12B45b) so it is expected to be valid.

Hello I have a problem,

I've installed Kin using the most recent Pip (python3) and when tried to use it I get an error:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/bin/kin", line 5, in <module> from kin.kin import main File "/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/kin/kin.py", line 5, in <module> from verifier import Verifier ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'verifier'

I've read on the forum that Kin is made for python 2.7 only. Is it true? If so, is Kin unusable now since Pip supports only python 3 now?

I tried running Kin on a project and got this error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/kin", line 5, in <module>
    from kin.kin import main

That 🔝

Got error note about this line:

We want to include LICENSE file into built application (for some reason I've forgotten) even if it is not a source code file. I believe this kin warning is not correct:

ERROR: line 2038:204 mismatched input '""' expecting NON_QUOTED_STRING

Hi,

I noticed that the warning on the BuildIndependentTargetsInParallel field, located under Begin PBXProject section/Project object/attributes, is triggering falsely. Despite being set to 1, my project is working correctly and the error message is unnecessary. Please let me know if you require additional information regarding this issue.

Environment:

Xcode 14.2 on Ventura 13.2.1

Part of my .pbxproj file:

			isa = PBXProject;
			attributes = {
				BuildIndependentTargetsInParallel = 1;

Resource files can optionally contain a path field

[u"line 10250:3 mismatched input 'path' expecting 'sourceTree'", u"line 10269:3 mismatched input 'path' expecting 'sourceTree'"]

/* Begin PBXVariantGroup section */
        2E09599F1C58EDF700B6A007 /* Localizable.stringsdict */ = {
            isa = PBXVariantGroup;
            children = (
                2E09599E1C58EDF700B6A007 /* es */,

            path = Resources/Languages;
            sourceTree = "<group>";
        };

Got this error note, not sure why. Looks ok to me, it also works during build:

There are a lot of problems in pbxproj files and most of them are always the same!
We could handle the most common ones with Kin by using the parser ANTLR creates for us.

Some of the issues we could deal with are:

• NULL references [Remove them]
• Unknown UUIDs referenced from groups [Remove them]
• UUIDs of files that don't appear in any group [Remove them]
• Duplicated UUIDs [Ask the user which one should we pick or try merging them]

We can create separated issues in github when we start developing them.
