Implement Node Addon in Xcode

Is there a way to run node-gyp on Xcode? So that I could add JavaScript, C++ files, third-party static libraries, and binding.gyp file in the same project, and run it with Node.js?

Or is writing separate files, putting them in the same directory, running js files on a terminal the only way to solve this?

Solution

  • Yes, we could implement node-gyp on Xcode.

    Instead of commanding $ node-gyp configure build(or using $ node-gyp rebuild), what steps we should do are:

     $ node-gyp configure -- -f xcode
 $ node-gyp build

    And we could also adjust some settings on Xcode itself, rather than editing binding.gyp alone.
