This Xcode project delivers the SwLibTidy library for LibTidy development on
any platform that supports the Swift language and the Swift Package Manager.
It’s a native Swift wrapper for HTML Tidy (LibTidy), and is a nearly purely
procedural and mostly faithful wrapper of the C library, with native
Swift types and some convenient replacements.
SwLibTidy proper is the procedural wrapper for LibTidy (referred to as
CLibTidy within this project). As it consists of Swift top-level functions,
this is not useful in Objective-C. In most cases, developers will prefer to use
the TidyKit and associated classes, which are available as a separate library
(or will be, someday).
This library is released as a Swift Package Manager library, and is nominally self-contained. The LibTidy source code is brought in as a Git submodule, and SwiftPM will fetch the contents automatically as required. You'll still have to pull upstream updates as desired, though.
LibTidy is fetched from the next (development) branch. As this is the active
next version development branch, there is not API or ABI stability guarantee.
In general, however, the API is source-stable, and you should have no problems
rebuilding this library from source.
The included XCTests are intended to run SwLibTidy through its API, but also provide close to 100% API coverage (not code coverage!) of LibTidy. Thus it’s likely that this library will eventually be part of the automated integration strategy for upstream HTML Tidy.
