Xcode 7: changing product bundle identifier
Faced the same problem.
The PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER
is a variable in your project.pbxproj
file. Change that to whatever you want and it will reflect both in your Info.plist
as well as the project settings.
udit's answer is correct. The best practice is in plist set Bundle ID value as $PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER. Then in Build Settings, use different configurations(Debug, Release .etc) to set up different bundle ID by required:
You don't need xCode plugin to change bundle id anymore but need to specify configuration in there.
Refer to this for a simple solution to replace $PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER using shell command like -
sed -i '' 's/com.example.oldbundleid/com.example.newbundleid/g' project.pbxproj
You can pass your variables accordingly using Jenkins/Shell.
Alternative approach to do this is using mod-pbxproj.
python -m mod_pbxproj -b -af PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER=com.example.newbundleid -rf PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER=com.example.oldbundleid project.pbxproj All
//edit
Old bundle id can be fetched by -
awk -F '=' '/PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER/ {print $2; exit}' project.pbxproj
This can be stored in a string variable and used in place of com.example.oldbundleid
