Type-erased wrappers for Encodable, Decodable, and Codable values.
This functionality is discussed in Chapter 3 of Flight School Guide to Swift Codable.
Add the AnyCodable package to your target dependencies in Package.swift:
import PackageDescription
let package = Package(
name: "YourProject",
dependencies: [
.package(
url: "https://github.com/Flight-School/AnyCodable",
from: "0.6.0"
),
]
)Then run the swift build command to build your project.
You can install AnyCodable via CocoaPods
by adding the following line to your Podfile:
pod 'AnyCodable-FlightSchool', '~> 0.6.0'Run the pod install command to download the library
and integrate it into your Xcode project.
Note The module name for this library is "AnyCodable" --- that is, to use it, you add
import AnyCodableto the top of your Swift code just as you would by any other installation method. The pod is called "AnyCodable-FlightSchool" because there's an existing pod with the name "AnyCodable".
To use AnyCodable in your Xcode project using Carthage,
specify it in Cartfile:
github "Flight-School/AnyCodable" ~> 0.6.0
Then run the carthage update command to build the framework,
and drag the built AnyCodable.framework into your Xcode project.
