Swiftgen: Output Font file (generated) is empty!

[razor313]

I've used SPM in order to add SwiftGen to my project and I've added the fonts according to the Apple documention.

I don't get any error during the build phase and Assets.generated.swift file would be generated all enums.
But after it the output file of the font is empty.
Here is the swiftgen.yml file in which I use.

input_dir: ${PROJECT_DIR}/PROJECT_NAME/Resources/
output_dir: ${PROJECT_DIR}/PROJECT_NAME/Resources/

xcassets:
  inputs: Assets.xcassets
  outputs:
    templatePath: "${PROJECT_DIR}/Tools/SwiftGenerator/.build/checkouts/SwiftGen/templates/xcassets/swift5.stencil"
    output: Assets.generated.swift

fonts:
  inputs: Fonts
  outputs:
    templatePath: "${PROJECT_DIR}/Tools/SwiftGenerator/.build/checkouts/SwiftGen/templates/xcassets/swift5.stencil"
    output: Fonts.generated.swift

Here is the content of the Fonts.generated.swift file:

// swiftlint:disable all
// Generated using SwiftGen — https://github.com/SwiftGen/SwiftGen

// No assets found

Could you post the output of swiftgen config lint please? And check that it matches the paths of your project.

Note: your output_dir seems to be missing a / before Resources, but that's probably a copy-paste typo.

I've corrected the path of the output_dir as you mentioned that was a copy-paste type.
Since I use the SPM I have to run this command swift run -c release --package-path Tools/SwiftGenerator swiftgen config lint rather than the swiftgen config lint
Here is the output of that command:

warning: found 1 file(s) which are unhandled; explicitly declare them as resources or exclude from the target
    /Users/USER_NAME/workspace/PROJECT_NAME/Tools/SwiftGenerator/swiftgen.yml

Linting swiftgen.yml
File swiftgen.yml not found.

I have no clue how I can pass the path of the swiftgen.yml

Your template path is using xcassets stencil file for font.
templatePath: "${PROJECT_DIR}/Tools/SwiftGenerator/.build/checkouts/SwiftGen/templates/xcassets/swift5.stencil"

@mrtsamma Oh wow, didn't even notice that, good catch!

@razor313 so yeah, using the right template will fix it. About the config lint question, append --config myConfig.yml should do it. You may have to specify the full path to it though, not sure.

[razor313]

@mrtsamma Thank you very much, Nice catch.

@djbe It worked like a charm. As a suggestion, It would be better if SwiftGen could throw an error when get an unmatch template.

The template exists. It's incompatible though.

You are manually providing your own template which just happens to be a built in one. When using templatePath, you're responsible for providing a compatible template.
