Using the Template

Prerequisites

In our project template we use pixi.sh as environment manager and copier to generate a copy of the project template. The installation instructions for pixi can be found here. After successful installation of pixi and restarting your terminal, you can type pixi info to get the current version of pixi.

Update pixi

If you have installed pixi already, please make sure to update it to the latest version by running:

pixi self-update

Now install copier as a global package with pixi:

pixi global install copier

Generate an IPA Project with Copier

Copier will ask you a series of questions whose answers will be used to generate a tailored IPA project for you. To start the process provide the name of your project and then copy the command:

PROJECT_NAME

pixi x copier copy git+https://github.com/fmi-faim/ipa-project-template PROJECT_NAME

Congratulations!

You have created a new personalized IPA project! Now you can change into the project root-directory with

cd PROJECT_NAME

or open the directory in your file browser.
