cassowary

Cassowary is a collection of helpers and continuous integration tools for mobile development.

libcassowary

Right now the libcassowary library (derived from libphutil / arcanist) is focused on providing a set of utilities for the Phabricator development tools. Within libcassowary there exists unit tests and linters that can be invoked for iOS and Android projects. All input and pull requests are welcome to make it easier to automate testing and code reviews for these mobile development environments.

To use libcassowary edit your .arcconfig to look something like this:

{
  "project_id" : "MyProject",
  "conduit_uri" : "http://myphabricatorurl.com/",
  "phutil_libraries" : [
    "cassowary/libcassowary/src"
  ],
  "lint.engine" : "MobileLintEngine",
  "unit.engine" : "MobileUnitTestEngine"
}

You will need to clone this repository to somewhere in your project structure. iOS projects should use OCLintEngine and OCUnitTestEngine for linting and unit testing respectively. Android projects should use AndroidLintEngine and AndroidTestEngine. .NET projects should use DotNetLintEngine. If you need support for several platforms in a hybrid repository, use MobileLintEngine and MobileUnitTestEngine.

iOS Linting and Unit Testing

objc

libcassowary uses OCLint for linting Objective-C implementation files. Since OCLint is configurable and needs to know some information about the Xcode project being linted, a file oclint.sh must exist in any root project directory that wishes to have its files linted. A sample file is as follows:

#! /bin/bash

ARCH=armv7
SYSROOT=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/SDKs/iPhoneOS.sdk
PCH_PATH=src/Prefix.pch

INCLUDES=''
for folder in `find . -type d`
do
  INCLUDES="$INCLUDES -I$folder"
done

oclint $1 -- -x objective-c -arch $ARCH -F . -isysroot $SYSROOT -g -I$INCLUDES -include $PCH_PATH -c

It may be necessary to edit this script based on your project needs and structure. See the command line documentation for more info.

The iOS linter looks for this file and uses it as a reference point for linting individual files so make sure it exists otherwise no linting will occur.

iOS unit testing leverages the OCUnit testing framework provided within Xcode and is built and executed using xctool. The unit test engine expects to find a file named .xctool-args that exists parallel to an Xcode project. All unit tests per that configuration will be executed; see the xctool documentation for how to configure its execution using this file. To install xctool just run:

brew install xctool

swift

Swift linting uses the swiftlint project. Please refer to SwiftLint for rule setup documentation. swiftlint can be installed via homebrew.

brew install swiftlint

See SwiftLint for additional install methods if brew is not supported in your environment

Configuration

libcassowary requires a .swiftlint.yml file in the project root folder. This file must be configured to output json.

#sample .swiftlint.yml file
disabled_rules: # rule identifiers to exclude from running

opt_in_rules: # some rules are only opt-in

included: # paths to include during linting. `--path` is ignored if present.
- Source

excluded: # paths to ignore during linting. Takes precedence over `included`.
- Pods

analyzer_rules: # Rules run by `swiftlint analyze` (experimental)
- explicit_self

# configurable rules can be customized from this configuration file
# binary rules can set their severity level
unneeded_break_in_switch: error
opening_brace: error
comma: error
control_statement: error
colon:
severity: error
flexible_right_spacing: false
apply_to_dictionaries: true
# rules that have both warning and error levels, can set just the warning level
# implicitly
line_length:
- 120
- 140
# they can set both implicitly with an array
type_body_length:
- 300 # warning
- 400 # error
# or they can set both explicitly
file_length:
warning: 500
error: 1200
# naming rules can set warnings/errors for min_length and max_length
# additionally they can set excluded names
type_name:
min_length: 3 # only warning
max_length: # warning and error
warning: 40
error: 50
excluded: iPhone # excluded via string
identifier_name:
min_length: # only min_length
error: 3 # only error
excluded: # excluded via string array
- id
- URL
- GlobalAPIKey
reporter: "json" # reporter type (xcode, json, csv, checkstyle, junit, html, emoji, sonarqube, markdown)

Android Linting and Unit Testing

The Android developer tools provide linting and unit test capabilities out of the box. The Android lint tool will be automatically invoked for any XML or Java files if configured. For unit testing, all tests within a directory tests will be executed for an application. The Android unit tester does assume that a device is connected to execute the tests on.

.NET Linting and Unit Testing

libcassowary uses the ReSharper Command Line Tools for linting. To install them just run:

choco install resharper-clt

The .NET linter invokes the full ReSharper suite and can utilize any local configuration you have in place in your solution(s).

.NET unit testing supports both classic .NET and .NET Core.

Development and Maintenance

Apache NetBeans IDE 11.3 Setup

NetBeans Download: https://netbeans.apache.org/download/index.html

Set Run Configuration to Run As: Script (run in command line)

  • For Linux / Unix: Set PHP Interpreter to /usr/bin/php
  • For Windows: Set the interpreter to your php.exe file

You can specify PHP Version 7.4 and use Default Encoding UTF-8.
