Swift Package Documentation Generator
Generates API documentation for Swift package dependencies on-demand, extracting symbol information from Xcode's DerivedData to answer "what does this library do?"
Overview
When exploring unfamiliar dependencies, generate their documentation automatically instead of guessing from code. This tool uses interfazzle to extract symbol information from compiled modules.
How to Use
When asked about an unfamiliar Swift module import:
- Run:
./scripts/generate_docs.py "<module_name>" "<path_to.xcodeproj>" - Script outputs path to cached documentation file
- Read the file and provide relevant information
Prerequisites: Project must be built once (DerivedData exists), interfazzle CLI installed.
See reference.md for error handling and details.
