`Link binary with libraries`-build phase

[knothed]

Using xcodegen with a project.yml which does not have any dependencies will create a project which is missing the "link binary with libraries" build phase.

When subsequently adding an SPM dependency manually in Xcode, building will fail (Undefined symbol) because the SPM dependency will not be added to a "link binary with libraries" phase since it is missing.

Is there a way to generate an empty "link binary with libraries" phase using xcodegen?

Try adding link: true under the SPM package dependency for your target, like so:

target: myTarget
  dependencies: 
    - package: mySPM_Dependency
      link: true

in case of a static xcframework the link: true is needed
