A Swift Package for using OpenUSD in Swift
Before you can start using SwiftUsd, you need to add it as a dependency to your Xcode project or Swift Package, and then configure a few build settings.
- To use SwiftUsd in an Xcode project, select File > Add Package Dependency, and enter https://github.com/apple/SwiftUsdas the URL.
- In the build settings for your target, set C++ and Objective-C InteroperabilitytoC++ / Objective-C++(SWIFT_OBJC_INTEROP_MODE=objcxx).
- In the build settings for your target, set C++ Language DialecttoGNU++17 [-std=gnu++17](CLANG_CXX_LANGUAGE_STANDARD=gnu++17).
- To use SwiftUsd in a Swift Package, first add it as a dependency:
dependencies: [
    .package(url: "https://github.com/apple/SwiftUsd", from: "5.1.0"),
]- Then enable Swift-Cxx interoperability on your Swift targets:
.target(name: "MyTarget",
        dependencies: [.product(name: "OpenUSD", package: "SwiftUsd")],
        swiftSettings: [
            .interoperabilityMode(.Cxx)
        ]),- Then set the C++ language standard to GNU++17:
let package = Package(
    name: "MyPackage",
    targets: [...],
    cxxLanguageStandard: .gnucxx17
)Once you've added SwiftUsd as a package depedency to your Xcode project or Swift Package, enabled Swift-Cxx interop, and set the C++ version to GNU++17, you're ready to start using SwiftUsd:
import OpenUSD
func makeHelloWorldString() -> String {
    let stage = Overlay.Dereference(pxr.UsdStage.CreateInMemory())
    stage.DefinePrim("/hello", .UsdGeomTokens.Xform)
    stage.DefinePrim("/hello/world", .UsdGeomTokens.Sphere)
    return stage.ExportToString() ?? "nil"
