Building and testing Swift

Introduction

This guide shows you how to build and test a Swift package.

GitHub-hosted runners have a tools cache with preinstalled software, and the Ubuntu and macOS runners include the dependencies for building Swift packages. For a full list of up-to-date software and the preinstalled versions of Swift and Xcode, see Using GitHub-hosted runners.

Prerequisites

You should already be familiar with YAML syntax and how it's used with GitHub Actions. For more information, see GitHub Actions 的工作流语法.

We recommend that you have a basic understanding of Swift packages. For more information, see Swift Packages in the Apple developer documentation.

Using a Swift workflow template

若要快速开始使用，请将工作流模板添加到存储库的 .github/workflows 目录。

GitHub provides a workflow template for Swift that should work for most Swift projects. The subsequent sections of this guide give examples of how you can customize this workflow template.

在 GitHub 上，导航到存储库的主页面。
在存储库名称下，单击 “操作”。
如果存储库中已有工作流，请单击“新建工作流”。
The "Choose a workflow" page shows a selection of recommended workflow templates. Search for "swift".
Filter the selection of workflows by clicking Continuous integration.
On the "Swift" workflow, click Configure.
Edit the workflow as required. For example, change the branch on which the workflow will run.
Click Commit changes.

The swift.yml workflow file is added to the .github/workflows directory of your repository.

Specifying a Swift version

To use a specific preinstalled version of Swift on a GitHub-hosted runner, use the swift-actions/setup-swift action. This action finds a specific version of Swift from the tools cache on the runner and adds the necessary binaries to PATH. These changes will persist for the remainder of a job. For more information, see the swift-actions/setup-swift action.

If you are using a self-hosted runner, you must install your desired Swift versions and add them to PATH.

The examples below demonstrate using the swift-actions/setup-swift action.

Using multiple Swift versions

You can configure your job to use multiple versions of Swift in a matrix.

YAML

# 此工作流使用未经 GitHub 认证的操作。
# 它们由第三方提供，并受
# 单独的服务条款、隐私政策和支持
# 文档。

# GitHub 建议将操作固定到提交 SHA。
# 若要获取较新版本，需要更新 SHA。
# 还可以引用标记或分支，但该操作可能会更改而不发出警告。

name: Swift

on: [push]

jobs:
  build:
    name: Swift ${{ matrix.swift }} on ${{ matrix.os }}
    strategy:
      matrix:
        os: [ubuntu-latest, macos-latest]
        swift: ["5.2", "5.3"]
    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
    steps:

        with:
          swift-version: ${{ matrix.swift }}
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Build
        run: swift build
      - name: Run tests
        run: swift test

    strategy:
      matrix:
        os: [ubuntu-latest, macos-latest]

      - name: Build
        run: swift build
      - name: Run tests
        run: swift test

Using a single specific Swift version

You can configure your job to use a single specific version of Swift, such as 5.3.3.

YAML

steps:
  - uses: swift-actions/setup-swift@65540b95f51493d65f5e59e97dcef9629ddf11bf
    with:
      swift-version: "5.3.3"
  - name: Get swift version
    run: swift --version # Swift 5.3.3

steps:
  - uses: swift-actions/setup-swift@65540b95f51493d65f5e59e97dcef9629ddf11bf
    with:
      swift-version: "5.3.3"
  - name: Get swift version
    run: swift --version # Swift 5.3.3

Building and testing your code

You can use the same commands that you use locally to build and test your code using Swift. This example demonstrates how to use swift build and swift test in a job:

YAML

steps:
  - uses: actions/checkout@v4
  - uses: swift-actions/setup-swift@65540b95f51493d65f5e59e97dcef9629ddf11bf
    with:
      swift-version: "5.3.3"
  - name: Build
    run: swift build
  - name: Run tests
    run: swift test

steps:
  - uses: actions/checkout@v4
  - uses: swift-actions/setup-swift@65540b95f51493d65f5e59e97dcef9629ddf11bf
    with:
      swift-version: "5.3.3"
  - name: Build
    run: swift build
  - name: Run tests
    run: swift test
