SimCtl

Swift library and CLI for interacting with Xcode's simctl.

Usage

You can list available simulators and their IDs:

$ ./.build/debug/lol list
Apple Watch - 38mm (EC1CD621-CA6A-4B6B-A20F-CF5EB4CB729D) (Shutdown)
Apple Watch - 42mm (0360D0A1-23B6-473B-90DD-DE55CD423D50) (Shutdown)
iPhone 4s (007ED883-185A-4663-893D-C8962AD46F35) (Shutdown)
iPhone 5 (BA83B1AD-7D82-47FE-A4BC-87BA34ECC168) (Shutdown)

You can also delete all simulators if Xcode has made a mess or you feel like it:

$ ./.build/debug/lol delete

Most importantly, you can recreate one simulator per runtime / device type combination automatically, bringing you to a clean slate in conjunction with delete:

$ ./.build/debug/lol create_defaults

Installation

SimCtl requires Swift 2.2, as it uses the Swift Package Manager. You can compile it by just running:

$ make

By default, the CLI tool will be located in .build/debug/lol.
