SwiftInitializerGenerator - Xcode Source Code Extension to Generate Swift Initializers

Overview

Swift Initializer Generator

This Xcode Source Code Extension will generate a Swift initializer based on the lines you've selected. Handy if you made a struct public and now you have to provide the initializer implementation yourself.

Usage

Select the lines with the attributes that should be included in the initializer. See below; > is the start of the selection and < is the end of the selection.

struct MyStruct {
>    public var a: String
    public var b: Int<
}

Run the extension's "Generate Swift Initializer". Voila! The code above is modified to:

struct MyStruct {
    public var a: String
    public var b: Int
    public init(a: String, b: Int) {
        self.a = a
        self.b = b
    }
}

Demo

Installation

  1. On OS X 10.11 El Capitan, run the following command and restart your Mac:

     sudo /usr/libexec/xpccachectl

  2. Open SwiftInitializerGenerator.xcodeproj

  3. Enable target signing for both the Application and the Source Code Extension using your own developer ID

  4. Product > Archive

  5. Right click archive > Show in Finder

  6. Right click archive > Show Package Contents

  7. Drag Swift Initializer Generator.app to your Applications folder

  8. Run Swift Initializer Generator.app and exit again.

  9. Go to System Preferences -> Extensions -> Xcode Source Editor and enable the extension

  10. The menu-item should now be available from Xcode's Editor menu.

Known limitations

It will only parse attributes defined like (open|public|fileprivate|private|internal) [weak] (var|let) NAME: TYPE.

Comments

  • "This target might include its own product" error when archiving

    I get this error whenever I archive (using Xcode 8). If I just build, I get #5:

    I tried disabling "Find Implicit Dependencies" in the scheme, and removing the explicit target dependency in the app target, but nothing helped :/

    Does not show option in the Editor menu

    As mentioned in #6

    Following README instructions it's still not showing up on the Editor menu in Xcode, despite multiple attempts, restarting Xcode, etc.

  • Cannot Initialize `private` properties.

    Cannot Initialize `private` properties.

    The extension works great! However, when you try to initialize private properties, you get the following error:

    "The operation couldn't be completed. (Generate_Swift_Initializer.SourceEditorCommand.Error error 3)"

  • Fix indentation handling

    Fix indentation handling

    The previous implementation did not support tab indentations or deeply nested types. Instead of using indentationWidth to pad the generated code, we deduce the current indentation depth from the first line in the selection and check if the user prefers tabs for the initializer body.

    This commit also inserts a new line between the variables and generated initializers, as this seems to be a common Swift design choice.

  • "Embedded binary is not signed with the same certificate as the parent app" error when building

    Disclaimer: I'm 99.99% sure this issue has nothing to do with this repo, and it's just an(other) Xcode bug, I just figured I'd open this to see if other people run into the same thing.

    I was super excited to use this extension, but I'm getting the following error: screen shot 2016-10-05 at 5 17 07 pm

    I do have the same team in both targets: screen shot 2016-10-05 at 5 23 00 pm screen shot 2016-10-05 at 5 23 06 pm

    But of course Xcode is doing something wrong... or maybe I am? I hadn't used automatic signing yet, so maybe I'm doing something wrong.

    Note: I'm on Xcode 8.0

  • Wrong example in the readme

    Wrong example in the readme

    struct MyStruct { public var a: String public var b: Int public init(a: String, b: String) { self.a = a self.b = b } }

    should be struct MyStruct { public var a: String public var b: Int public init(a: String, b: Int) { self.a = a self.b = b } }

    b is an Int not a String

  • Doesn't work using some code density

    Doesn't work using some code density

    For struct using code density:

    public struct Advert: Codable {
    public let location: Location
    public let imageId, unitId, name: String

}

    it gonna create initializer like this:

    public init(location: Location, imageId, unitId, name: String,

    which is not legal.

  • Initialization appears outside of struct for some reason

    Initialization appears outside of struct for some reason 

    
public struct Some: Codable {
	public var count: Int!
	public var tag: String!
}

    public init(count: Int!, tag: String!) {
        self.count = count
        self.tag = tag
    }

    As i understand, it should be like on animation, created inside struct.

  • Does not work with playgrounds.

    Does not work with playgrounds.

    When run from a playground, I get the error Generate_Swift_Initializer.SIGError error 0. I assume this is SIGError.notSwiftLanguage. Maybe there is something special about the main source file in a playground...

    Seems to work great in regular projects.
