Add Xcode Button in UI
Xcode is building an integration to GitLab, that will offer parity with their existing GitHub integration. We hope to that in a future stage we can collaborate on a more comprehensive integration.
Proposal
Add a button that uses the Xcode URL schema to clone the project in Xcode.
The format of the URL scheme is as follows:
xcode://clone?repo=URLEncodedRepositoryURL => Example: xcode://clone?repo=https%3A%2F%gitlab.com%2Fexample%2Ffoo
The logic used for displaying the button should be:
- Does the repository they are viewing contain a “.xcodeproj” or “.xcworkspace” file at the top-level
- Does the browser user agent report the operating system as MacOS
Design
- Xcode button should only be visible where the current clone action is
- Do not show on mobile
- Button copy
Open in Xcode
