Some time ago, Apple added JSON build output to xcodebuild in the form of the -resultStreamPath parameter.
Unfortunately, one can't just -resultStreamPath - to replace the STDOUT with a nice stream of JSON fragments, so I've created this little wrapper to capture the file stream and show a summary. Additionally, I have submitted FB9004441 to request that xcodebuild support -resultStreamPath - directly.
Run ./xcodebuild.py -scheme HelloWorld to get the following output:
System rm -rf build System mkdir -p build System touch build/ResultStream.json System touch build/StandardOut.txt System touch build/StandardError.txt System xcodebuild -scheme HelloWorld -resultBundlePath build/Result.xcresult -resultStreamPath build/ResultStream.json -derivedDataPath build -resultBundleVersion 3 Building project HelloWorld with scheme HelloWorld CreateBuildDirectory .../XcodeJsonBuild/build/Build/Products CreateBuildDirectory .../XcodeJsonBuild/build/Build/Intermediates.noindex Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/DerivedSources/Entitlements.plist Process product packaging Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/all-product-headers.yaml Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/HelloWorld-project-headers.hmap Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/HelloWorld.hmap Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/HelloWorld-all-non-framework-target-headers.hmap Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/HelloWorld-generated-files.hmap Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/HelloWorld-own-target-headers.hmap Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/HelloWorld-all-target-headers.hmap Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/Script-0694AC5625D97995007E9D22.sh Script Important setup Write .../HelloWorld.build/Debug/HelloWorld.build/Objects-normal/x86_64/HelloWorld.LinkFileList Compile .../XcodeJsonBuild/HelloWorld/main.m Link .../XcodeJsonBuild/build/Build/Products/Debug/HelloWorld Sign .../XcodeJsonBuild/build/Build/Products/Debug/HelloWorld Register execution policy exception for .../XcodeJsonBuild/build/Build/Products/Debug/HelloWorld
