Rugby 🏈
^{"Like Ruby but with g"}

Motivation

Working on a project with a huge amount of remote pods I had some troubles:
- Slow and unnecessary indexing of remote pods targets, which implementation I rarely try to edit;
- Redundant rebuild time, probably as a result of problems CocoaPods hooks or Xcode build system;
- Freezing UI during navigation.

You can read 📖 full story on my blog.

Description

🏈 Rugby is CLI tool that was developed to solve the above problems:
+ Cache all remote pods dependencies and remove their targets from the Pods project;
+ Rebuild only changed remote pods;
+ Remove unnecessary sources from a project and reduce project size;
+ Drop any unneeded targets with sources and resources by RegEx.

What makes it different?

🕊 Not a dependency
🔒 Doesn't change Podfile
🛠 Custom steps
📈 Metrics after each command
✨ Fancy log output
🚀 Swiftish!

Ruby alternatives:
- CocoaPods Binary
- PodBuilder
- CocoaPods Binary Cache
