So I want to edit some files in a swift package in Xcode 11.0 beta (11M336w) on MacOS 10.15 Beta (19A471t).
Let's take https://github.com/AndyQ/NFCPassportReader as an example.
It has an example app which uses the repo from GitHub. Suppose I want to make some source code changes. How do I tell the system I want to edit the package?
I tried "swift package edit NFCPassportReader
" on the command line.
If I run it from the example app's root folder I get "
error: root manifest not found
"If I run it from the root of the package I get "
error: Could not find dependency 'NFCPassportReader'
"
What steps do I need to take for get the package in edit mode (in Xcode 11), and from which directory?
P.s. Here is the Package.swift file from the repo
// swift-tools-version:5.1
// The swift-tools-version declares the minimum version of Swift required to build this package.
import PackageDescription
let package = Package(
name: "NFCPassportReader",
platforms: [.iOS(.v13)],
products: [
// Products define the executables and libraries produced by a package, and make them visible to other packages.
.library(
name: "NFCPassportReader",
targets: ["NFCPassportReader"]),
],
dependencies: [
// Dependencies declare other packages that this package depends on.
// .package(url: /* package url */, from: "1.0.0"),
],
targets: [
// Targets are the basic building blocks of a package. A target can define a module or a test suite.
// Targets can depend on other targets in this package, and on products in packages which this package depends on.
.target(
name: "NFCPassportReader",
dependencies: []),
.testTarget(
name: "NFCPassportReaderTests",
dependencies: ["NFCPassportReader"]),
]
)
