Learn how to integrate the plugins into your project
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
Use the plugins by including as a package to your project and declaring in the `plugins` section of
|
|
your target.
|
|
|
|
> Note: You must use swift-tools version 5.6 or greater for package plugins and target `macOS(.v13)`
|
|
> or greater.
|
|
|
|
```swift
|
|
// swift-tools-version: 5.10
|
|
|
|
import PackageDescription
|
|
|
|
let package = Package(
|
|
platforms:[.macOS(.v13)],
|
|
dependencies: [
|
|
...,
|
|
.package(url: "https://github.com/m-housh/swift-cli-version.git", from: "0.2.0")
|
|
],
|
|
targets: [
|
|
.executableTarget(
|
|
name: "<target name>",
|
|
dependencies: [...],
|
|
plugins: [
|
|
.plugin(name: "BuildWithVersionPlugin", package: "swift-cli-version")
|
|
]
|
|
)
|
|
]
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The above example uses the build tool plugin. The `BuildWithVersionPlugin` will give you access to a
|
|
`VERSION` variable in your project that you can use to supply the version of the tool.
|
|
|
|
### Example
|
|
|
|
```swift
|
|
import ArgumentParser
|
|
|
|
@main
|
|
struct MyCliTool: ParsableCommand {
|
|
static let configuration = CommandConfiguration(
|
|
abstract: "My awesome cli tool",
|
|
version: VERSION
|
|
)
|
|
|
|
func run() throws {
|
|
print("Version: \(VERSION)")
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After you enable the plugin, you will have access to the `VERSION` string variable even though it is
|
|
not declared in your source files.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
> Note: If your `DerivedData` folder lives in a directory that is a mounted volume / or somewhere
|
|
> that is not under your home folder then you may get build failures using the build tool plugin, it
|
|
> will work if you build from the command line and pass the `--disable-sandbox` flag to the build
|
|
> command or use one of the manual methods.
