$ mint install IBDecodable/IBLinter

Using CocoaPods

pod 'IBLinter'

This will download the IBLinter binaries and dependencies in Pods/ during your next pod install execution and will allow you to invoke it via ${PODS_ROOT}/IBLinter/bin/iblinter in your Script Build Phases.

Compiling from source

You can build from source by cloning this repository and running

$ make install

iblinter will be installed in /usr/local/bin.

Usage

You can see all description by iblinter --help

$ iblinter --help

Xcode

Add a Run Script Phase to integrate IBLinter with Xcode

if which iblinter >/dev/null; then
  iblinter lint
else
  echo "warning: IBLinter not installed, download from https://github.com/IBDecodable/IBLinter"
fi

Alternatively, if you've installed IBLinter via CocoaPods the script should look like this:

"${PODS_ROOT}/IBLinter/bin/iblinter"
