Swiftgen: Is SwiftGen still under active development?

[jrtibbetts]

The most recent commit to master is from January 2019.

All development for new versions happens on the develop branch, which is why the last change to master dates to the last release.

TBH a release has been almost ready for quite some time (see #621), but finding time has been difficult. I'll try to at least get 6.2.0 out in the next few days.

Would be great to have a new release, thank you for your work @djbe :)

How do you use the develop version? I tried setting up the git param in Podfile... no binary is installed

[aspcartman]

For people ending up here searching for swift5 support etc I do such a build step:

if which swiftgen >/dev/null; then
  swiftgen config run --config swiftgen.yml
else
  echo "warning: SwiftGen not installed"
  echo "please do"
  echo "brew install libxml2 mint"
  echo "mint install SwiftGen/SwiftGen@develop"
fi

What's the current state of SwiftGen 6.2.0?

[mortenholmgaard]

@djbe Any news here?
I would hate to see such a great lib be useless because of no active development..

[danielsaidi]

Given that he said he'd try to get 6.2.0 out in a couple of days in October and has been silent ever since, I am actually kind of worried.

[djbe]

No worries, still alive 😉 Same story as always, just been really busy.

Actually, if anyone on the team could take a look at #619 so we can merge that. Then I can open a PR for a branch I have based on that (https://github.com/SwiftGen/SwiftGen/tree/feature/update-pods), we can at least get CI working again and make a (alpha?) release.

No worries, still alive 😉 Same story as always, just been really busy.

But we all have oodles of free time because of quarantine now, right?

j/k
