SwiftGen v6.3.0 Release Notes

    🆕 New Features

      #184
      #634
    • 👍 Fonts: the templates now support a new fontTypeName template parameter that you can use to change the name of the struct representing a font to something else.

    • 🚀 Fonts: the templates now support a new fontAliasName that you can use to change the typealias's name from Font to something else. For example: this is useful when working with SwiftUI which already defines a Font type. Note that as this typealias is deprecated (see deprecations above), this template parameter will also be removed in the next major release.

    • 🗄 CoreData: Deprecates fetchRequest() and adds makeFetchRequest() to avoid ambiguous function usage.
      David Rothera
      #726
    • 🍎 XCAssets: image assets now load faster on macOS if they're in the main bundle. MacOS only provides a caching mechanism for images in the main bundle, for other cases you may need to provide your own caching mechanism as needed.

    • 📚 Fonts/IB/JSON/Plist/Strings/XCAssets: all templates that load data at runtime from a bundle now support a bundle template parameter, which you can use to override the bundle from which resources are loaded. Check out the template specific documentation for more information. For an in-depth explanation, also check the customize loading of resources article.

    • 📚 Fonts/IB/JSON/Plist: Similar to the strings templates, these templates now support a lookupFunction template parameter, which allows you to provide your own resource lookup mechanism at runtime. Check the template specific documentation for more information. For an in-depth explanation, also check the customize loading of resources article.

    🐛 Bug Fixes

    • Strings: fix incorrect interpretation of format placeholders when there were missing positional parameters (e.g. "%[email protected]" without a %1$… defined).
