reqpack-plugin-swiftpm

ReqPack wrapper plugin for Swift Package Manager (swift package).

Plugin manages dependencies in one ReqPack-owned shared SwiftPM workspace.

Scope

• installs remote package dependencies into shared workspace
• installs local package paths into shared workspace
• removes dependencies from shared workspace
• updates shared workspace dependencies
• lists current shared workspace dependencies
• derives outdated packages from package collection metadata
• searches package collections
• shows package info from installed state and package collections

Runtime And Cache Paths

• workspace root: ~/.local/share/reqpack/swiftpm/workspace
• plugin state: ~/.local/share/reqpack/swiftpm/dependencies.tsv
• resolved file: ~/.local/share/reqpack/swiftpm/workspace/Package.resolved
• SwiftPM cache: ~/.cache/reqpack/swiftpm/cache
• SwiftPM scratch: ~/.cache/reqpack/swiftpm/scratch
• SwiftPM config: ~/.config/reqpack/swiftpm/configuration
• SwiftPM security: ~/.config/reqpack/swiftpm/security

Package Forms

• remote URL in package.name, for example https://github.com/apple/swift-argument-parser.git
• local package path through installLocal() or request path
• optional scoped registry identity with explicit requirement flags

Supported requirement flags:

• exact
• from=<version>
• up-to-next-minor-from=<version>
• branch=<name>
• revision=<sha>
• to=<version>
• through=<version>

Without explicit requirement flags, package.version is treated as from / up-to-next-major.

Notes

• plugin wraps SwiftPM as shared workspace manager because SwiftPM is not a global installer
• search() and remote info() rely on configured package collections
• list() reports plugin-managed workspace state only
• outdated() skips local path dependencies and packages missing collection metadata
