A Swift wrapper for macOS's C-based accessibility client APIs
AXSwift
AXSwift is a Swift wrapper for macOS's C-based accessibility client APIs. Working with these APIs is error-prone and a huge pain, so AXSwift makes everything easier:
- Modern API that's 100% Swift
- Explicit error handling
- Complete coverage of the underlying C API
- Better documentation than Apple's, which is pretty poor
This framework is intended as a basic wrapper, and doesn't keep any state or do any "magic".
That's up to you!
Using AXSwift
SPM
In your Package.swift:
.package(url: "https://github.com/tmandry/AXSwift", from: "0.3.0"),
Carthage
In your Cartfile:
github "tmandry/AXSwift" ~> 0.3
CocoaPods
In your Podfile:
pod 'AXSwift', '~> 0.3'
See the source of AXSwiftExample
