Note: This repository is now archived and will no longer be maintained. I use Mise to manage tools like SwiftFormat now instead.
A script you can include in your projects that allows all team members to run the same version of SwiftFormat, without needing a package manager or building SwiftFormat from source.
curl -Ls "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lordcodes/swiftformat-cli/main/scripts/install.sh" | bash
./swiftformat.sh ARGUMENTS
Pass the same arguments you would have passed to SwiftFormat to the script instead, such as:
./swiftformat.sh . --report swiftformat.json
To update SwiftFormat, simple change the value for 'VERSION' at the top of the script.
You keep the script swiftformat.sh
in your project such as in BuildTools/swiftformat.sh. You then call the shell script instead of the swiftformat
executable and pass the same arguments you would have passed. The script downloads swiftformat as a binary and tells MacOS to let you execute it (will ask for your password to run this as sudo).
- It will download the version specified in the script, so all team members and CI will be using the same version.
- The process is faster than running via SPM as it won't need to build SwiftFormat from source and retrieve all its build dependencies.
- It is versioned unlike using Homebrew.
- Xcode Command Plugins can only be ran from a CLI with pure-SPM projects.
- It is incredibly simple and requires just a single script in your project.
- If you use fastlane you can create a simple lane in
Fastfile
to run the script.
If you are a Fastlane user, you can add lanes as below to run SwiftFormat in Lint or Format mode across the whole project.
The below snippets use the environment variable BUILD_ARTIFACT_DIR
for the output report location. This can be replaced with your preferred output location, or you could set it up in before_all
such as using:
before_all do
if Helper.ci?
ENV["BUILD_ARTIFACT_DIR"] = Pathname.new(ENV["BITRISE_DEPLOY_DIR"]).to_s
else
ENV["BUILD_ARTIFACT_DIR"] = ("fastlane/output").to_s
end
sh("cd ../ && mkdir -p #{ENV["BUILD_ARTIFACT_DIR"]}")
end
The snippets also use a small Fastlane helper function to print a clickable file link in the console to the output report.
def output_directory_absolute_file_url
directory = ENV["BUILD_ARTIFACT_DIR"].delete_prefix("fastlane/")
absolute_path = File.expand_path(directory)
"file:https://#{absolute_path}"
end
desc "Run SwiftFormat in Format mode"
lane :format do
begin
sh("cd ../ && ./BuildTools/swiftformat.sh . --report #{ENV["BUILD_ARTIFACT_DIR"]}/swiftformat.json")
rescue => ex
UI.error("SwiftFormat failed")
UI.error(ex)
UI.error("#{output_directory_absolute_file_url}/swiftformat.json")
end
end
desc "Run SwiftFormat in Lint mode"
lane :lint do
begin
sh("cd ../ && ./BuildTools/swiftformat.sh . --lint --report #{ENV["BUILD_ARTIFACT_DIR"]}/swiftformat.json")
rescue => ex
UI.error("SwiftFormat failed")
UI.error(ex)
UI.error("#{output_directory_absolute_file_url}/swiftformat.json")
end
end
