SPM Backend experimental
You may install executables managed by Swift Package Manager directly from GitHub or GitLab releases.
The code for this is inside of the mise repository at ./src/backend/spm.rs
.
Dependencies
This relies on having swift
installed. You can either install it manually or with mise.
NOTE
If you have Xcode installed and selected in your system via xcode-select
, Swift is already available through the toolchain embedded in the Xcode installation.
Usage
The following installs the latest version of tuist
and sets it as the active version on PATH:
$ mise use -g spm:tuist/tuist
$ tuist --help
OVERVIEW: Generate, build and test your Xcode projects.
USAGE: tuist <subcommand>
...
The version will be set in ~/.config/mise/config.toml
with the following format:
[tools]
"spm:tuist/tuist" = "latest"
Supported Syntax
Description | Usage |
---|---|
GitHub shorthand for latest release version | spm:tuist/tuist |
GitHub shorthand for specific release version | spm:tuist/tuist@4.15.0 |
GitHub url for latest release version | spm:https://github.com/tuist/tuist.git |
GitHub url for specific release version | spm:https://github.com/tuist/tuist.git@4.15.0 |
Other syntax may work but is unsupported and untested.
Tool Options
The following tool-options are available for the backend — these go in [tools]
in mise.toml
.
provider
Set the provider type to use for fetching assets and release information. Either github
or gitlab
(default is github
). Ensure the provider
is set to the correct type if you use shorthand notation and api_url
for self-hosted repositories as the type probably cannot be derived correctly from the URL.
[tools]
"spm:patricklorran/ios-settings" = { version = "latest", provider = "gitlab" }
api_url
Set the URL for the provider's API. This is useful when using a self-hosted instance.
[tools]
"spm:acme/my-tool" = { version = "latest", provider = "gitlab", api_url = "https://gitlab.acme.com/api/v4" }
