Spm in swiftui

My notes on using swift-package-manager in swiftui

Setup:

1. XCode -> File -> new package -> (create a new package in the root of your app folder)
2. XCode -> File -> add depedency pacakge -> press add local pacakge -> pick the new package
3. import YourNewPackage in files you need access to pacakge code
4. make things public to make the api available outside the package

Example:

Package:

public struct DatabaseLib {
   // 
   public static func testing() {
      Swift.print("testing")
   }
}

Using the package:

import DatabaseLib

DatabaseLib.testing() // testing

Gotchas

• XCode seems a bit unstable when opening new packages. Sometimes it requires closing xcode and dragging the package onto the xcode icon again to open it isolated.
