Swift Package Registry

Node.js CI

The Swift Package Registry is a collection of Swift Packages. Since the GitHub Swift Package Registry is not currently released and the IBM Swift Package Catalog is has been killed, the Swift Package Registry fills the current gap for easier searching and discoverability of Swift Packages.

Technical

This GitHub App is a Node.js application built with Probot. It parses all Swift packages using Docker. You can help contribue to this project by visiting the GitHub page. Issues and pull requests are welcomed!

Only public repositories are supported. When adding packages manually, a personal access token is used to fetch information about the package.

Docker is used to help validate packages. Just parsing Package.swift is not always enough. It is also an additional check for Swift version compatability.

You can access the Swift Package Registry via swiftpackageregistry.com (main site), swift-packages.com, swiftpkg.dev, SVVlFT.com, and swiftdependencies.com.

Development

Setup

Install dependencies

npm install

Setup .env. You can use .env.exmaple as a base.

For locally testing Swift Package Collections you will need to be using TLS/SSL. This can be achieved with the https-localhost npm package and manually modifying probot to use that over it's regular express web server.
