The easiest way to install and switch between multiple versions of Xcode - with a mouse click.

Last update: Dec 26, 2022

Overview

Xcodes.app

The easiest way to install and switch between multiple versions of Xcode.

If you're looking for a command-line version of Xcodes.app, try xcodes.

Features

List all available Xcode versions from Xcode Releases' data or the Apple Developer website.
Install any Xcode version, fully automated from start to finish. Xcodes uses aria2, which uses up to 16 connections to download 3-5x faster than URLSession.
Just click a button to make a version active with xcode-select.
View release notes, OS compatibility, included SDKs and compilers from Xcode Releases.

Installation

Xcodes.app runs on macOS Big Sur 11.0 or later.

Homebrew Cask

brew install --cask xcodes

# These are Developer ID-signed and notarized release builds and don't require Xcode to already be installed in order to use.

Download a release

Download the latest version here using the Xcodes.zip asset. These are Developer ID-signed and notarized release builds and don't require Xcode to already be installed in order to use.
Move the unzipped Xcodes.app to your /Applications directory

Development

You'll need macOS 11 Big Sur and Xcode 12 in order to build and run Xcodes.app.

If you aren't a Robots and Pencils employee you'll need to change the CODE_SIGNING_SUBJECT_ORGANIZATIONAL_UNIT build setting to your Apple Developer team ID in order for code signing validation to succeed between the main app and the privileged helper.

Notable design decisions are recorded in DECISIONS.md. The Apple authentication flow is described in Apple.paw, which will allow you to play with the API endpoints that are involved using the Paw app.

xcode-install and fastlane/spaceship both deserve credit for figuring out the hard parts of what makes this possible.

Releasing a new version

Follow the steps below to build and release a new version of Xcodes.app. For any of the git steps, you can use your preferred tool, but please sign the tag.

Add option to always have a version named "Xcode.app" on activate

Tell us how we can improve Xcodes This app is amazing and I use it all the time. The only thing I need to do manually right now is after upgrading to a new stable release and making it the active one, to rename it so it does not have the version in its name, which I don't want to have for the latest stable release.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I know that "make active" is the right approach, but some tools expect to have a path just called Xcode.app and therefore it's safer to have the latest stable just called that. See https://github.com/Flinesoft/BartyCrouch/issues/179 for example.

What would you like to see? How would you like it to work? Besides the existing "Active" button, there could also be a "Default name" button. Or alternatively, there could be an option in the preferences stating something like "Remove version suffix from currently active Xcode apps name".

Crash when navigating to the Experiments tab on macOS 13 developer beta
Describe the bug When I navigate to the Experiments tab on macOS 13, the app crashes, however, when opening the app again and opening settings, the experiments tab is shown normally. Also, after navigating to another tab, the updates tab will crash the app as well.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Open Xcodes.app, open preferences, click on experiments.

Expected behavior The app does not crash

Version

Implement install functionality

This adds install functionality to Xcodes. I took the XcodeInstaller code from xcodes and quickly ported it to Combine. The way that these publishers are used seems un-idiomatic, as the different installation steps are set in handleEvents operators, and the publishers all have a Void output type. It might be more appropriate to, for example, have the publishers send XcodeInstallState values instead, and I think we can revisit this after this is merged.

Things that require sudo in xcodes use the helper, which is installed "on demand" from the user's perspective.

I had to change how Process.run works because the combination of combineLatest(_:), subscribe(on:) and Deferred seemed to cause one of the security validation publishers to be subscribed to after the result value had already been sent.

This doesn't include aria2 support, yet. I commented it out when I brought the xcodes code over, and plan on looping back to that soon.

I added tests for the happy path to make sure that the XcodeInstallState is updated correctly. There are tests for both the Apple and Xcode Releases data sources, as the version information available in each is slightly different before the Xcode is actually installed, and so comparisons get tricky.

Testing

Find an Xcode you don't have and click Install. Wait ⌛ Make sure that the UI updates at the appropriate times (set breakpoints and/or watch Activity Monitor to get a sense of what's being done under the hood) Make sure that when it's done, the Make Active and Open buttons are shown and work.

You should be able to do this without having installed the helper first (use ./Scripts/uninstall_privileged_helper.sh to remove it if you're not sure), or with it already installed.

Unable to install Xcode: "ProcessExecutionError"
Describe the bug I couldn't download Xcode 14.2 until I deleted ~/Library/Application Support/com.robotsandpencils.XcodesApp & restarted Xcodes. I was able to kick off downloading other versions of Xcode, though I didn't run those to completion as part of the test.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior: Here is my corrupt com.robotsandpencils.XcodesApp folder, I guess replace yours with this to experience the issue:

Xcodes downloads html page as xip file rather than xip
(EDIT: I have a workaround in the first comment below but leaving open so devs are notified and can handle http status codes/invalid xip files correctly)

Describe the bug Attempting to download the Xcode 14.1 (current latest) gives an error.

The operation couldn’t be completed. (ProcessExecutionError(process: <NSConcreteTask: 0x600000886210>, standardOutput: "", standardError: ""))

I did originally get the "downloading 1/6" notification followed by an error (I am not 100% sure if it was the same error). Now hitting install I get the "unarchiving 2/6" notification with the above error. The original error happened a few seconds after I hit install so it is not downloading, unsure why it is skipping to unarchiving.

I have used Xcodes many times in the past without failure. This is the first time since updating to macOS Ventura.

I went and looked at my local Xcode storage that Xcodes downloads to and there is a Xcode-14.1.0+14B47b.xip file there. It is 30kb. Opening it up in VSCode I can see it is html. I won't paste the full file but this hopefully gives an indication of why.

<title>Unauthorized - Apple Developer</title> <meta name="omni_page" content="Unauthorized" /> <meta name="Description" content="The page you requested does not exist.">

I am not using Xcodes with a logged in Apple account, I have been in the past but I managed to get Xcode 14.0 without being logged in thanks to that great 1.8 update so I don't think it's an issue with my creds being expired or anything.

To Reproduce

Open Xcodes

Click install on Xcode 14.1

Expected behavior Xcode installs like it has for me many times in the past.

Could you build Xcodes so it supports older OSes?

Hi,

I was happy to see that an app like this exists. I was then sad after downloading every version from the most recent one down to 1.0 and discovering that none of them will run on Catalina.

I somehow hacked the Catalina installer to work on this old Mac mini Server, but I don't quite remember how I did it, but I do remember it was a bit of a nightmare, and I definitely don't wanna go down that route again.

Is there any chance you could start building Xcodes so that it runs on OSes previous to Big Sur? It doesn't seem like there's any particular reason it would require Big Sur?

Thanks :)

Create Rosetta Alias Option

Tell us how we can improve Xcodes Related: #321 #333 #312

Create an alias to the rosetta version for that Xcode version in /Applications. That way you can run both a Rosetta version and the Apple silicon version.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Can use the command line instead of using Xcodes (re #333 #321)

I work on some applications that only work in Rosetta but would like to use Apple silicon for everything else.

What would you like to see? How would you like it to work?

Have another version of the same Xcode version in the Application folder but the open in rosetta setting is checked. You can't do this with an alias. And a duplicate consumes too much disk space.

Would be great if this was automated and the icon was updated to show that it is rosetta.

Add filter option to show released and RC xcodes while still hiding betas

Tell us how we can improve Xcodes I usually don't want to see all xcode versions, sometimes I want to only see the released versions, which the release only filter is useful for. However, I'd love to also have the option to see release candidates in this list, since very often those RCs will just become the released version in time.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. not a problem, just a convenience i'd like added

What would you like to see? How would you like it to work? Implementation isn't as important, but I could see it either being implemented as a new "Releases and RCs only" filter, this behavior just being defaulted into the "Releases Only" filter, or perhaps as a preference checkbox to "include unreleased RCs in the releases only filter". any of these (or some other solution that i haven't thought of) could work, though changing the behavior of "releases only" might not be agreeable to some folks, so making it an option would likely be the best solution for all.

I'm undecided if it should just show all RCs, or if it should show RCs after the current released version, since I know 14.1 RC1 had some bug that necessitated an RC2 release, so showing RCs newer than the latest release may be the safest thing to do.
