Xcode Template for Custom Quartz Composer Patches

Create a new Xcode project with this template

Frustrated with the tedium of going through all the Xcode project files in a text editor and manually replacing all of the identifiers and filenames when creating a new Quartz Composer Patch, I decided to finally figure out how to create a new Xcode template. It's pretty straightforward, actually, given Karsten Kusche's instructions.

To make a Quartz Composer Patch, now all you need to do is:

  1. Create a new Xcode project with this template
  2. Give the project a name Give the project a name
  3. Build the project Build the project
  4. Move the .plugin file into /Library/Graphics/Patches/ — The template does this for you now.
  5. Launch Quartz Composer Launch Quartz Composer

And, of course, modify the code, if you want to do something other than nothing.
