spm-to-xcframework

What's it?

This little tool creates xcframework from SPM packages.

Install

Just pull the package and build from the source with this command: swift build -c release. Then you will find it in .build/release folder. You can download a version from releases page too.

How to use?

To create xcframework for a package run

./spm-to-xcframework YourPackageName --path path_to_your_package --output path_to_output

This will compile and create xcframework from YourPackage and its dependencies. XCFrameworks can be found at path_to_output/Build/xcframeworks folder.

--path: represents the path to spm package. If you omit this current directory is taken. --output: represents the output path where xcframeworks will be created. If omitted current directory is taken. --enable-library-evolution: This option enables library evolution for xcframeworks. With this they can be used with future swift compilers. --platforms ios simulator: Specifies which platforms will be supported by xcframeworks. For now only iphone and iphone simulator supported.

Limitations

For now only the packages that has swift code supported. Binary packages and objective-c packages are not supported.
