Automatically start react-native metro packager when “running / building” in Xcode

I recently switched to using react-native via CocoaPods:
https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/integration-with-existing-apps



Prior to this change whenever I ran / built my app in Xcode it automatically started metro packager, which was very convenient.



After the change this is no longer the case, hence I wanted to know if it is possible to somehow start packager again.



Packager can be started manually via following script, perhaps there is a way to add this in Xcode somehow? Also would I need to only run packager in Debug mode or Release as well?



./node_modules/.bin/react-native start --reset-cache
