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
Swift package manager (SPM) is not supported, because it cannot build libraries and applications that depend on Cocoa.
Carthage
In your Cartfile:
github "tmandry/AXSwift" ~> 0.2
CocoaPods
In your Podfile:
pod 'AXSwift', '~> 0.2'
See the source of AXSwiftExample and AXSwiftObserverExample for an example of the API.
