XCSwiftr

Convert Objective-C code into Swift from within Xcode. This plugin uses the Java applet of objc2swift to do the conversion.

Noticed that the translation is not always accurate? Does it fail at times? Please consider opening an issue in https://github.com/yahoojapan/objc2swift/issues/new.

Features

• Powered by Yahoo Japan's objc2swift project.
• The plugin is available from the code editor's contextual menu.
• Triggers convertion automatically.

Missing Features

• Language syntax highlight, hopefully with Xcode's current configured theme
• Auto-convert while typing from the left pane
• Set minimum size for each outlet presented in the modal window
• Test coverage

How to use

Select any Objective-C snippet you would like to convert and right click on it.

[contextual menu](./Documentation/Screenshots/screenshot_contextual_menu.png)

Click on "Convert to Swift". A modal window will be presented, with the left pane for Objective-C and the left one, for Swift.

Install

Install through Alcatraz, the package manager for Xcode.

Alternatively, clone the project:

1. Build the project to install the plugin. The plugin will be installed in ~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins/XCSwiftr.xcplugin.

2. Restart Xcode so the plugin bundle is loaded.
