Using locally-published components in Firefox for iOS

It's often important to test work-in-progress changes to this repo against a real-world consumer project. Here are our current best-practices for approaching this on iOS:

  1. Make a local build of the application-services framework using ./build-carthage.sh.

  2. Checkout and carthage bootstrap the consuming app (for example using these instructions with Firefox for iOS).

  3. In the consuming app, replace the application-services framework with a copy of your local build. For example:

    rm -rf Carthage/Build/iOS/MozillaAppServices.framework
rsync -ad path/to/application-services/Carthage/Build/iOS/MozillaAppServices.framework/ Carthage/Build/iOS/MozillaAppServices.framework/

  4. Open the consuming app project in XCode and build it from there.

After making changes to application-services code, you will need to re-run these steps in order to copy the latest changes over into the consuming app.

Firefox for iOS also has a helper script that automates these steps: appservices_local_dev.sh.

Note that for firefox-ios specifically, you may also need to copy the Glean sdk_generator.sh script from the appservices build into the root of the firefox-ios repository.
