I hope this post brings more visibility to u/vsavchenko’s https://github.com/SavchenkoValeriy/emacs-swift-module and spark more more integrations. u/divinedominion got ideas https://mastodon.social/@ctietze/111470001921901575 Maybe Maps https://xenodium.com/hey-emacs-where-did-i-take-that-photo?
So far, in the small experiments I've done, it's been fantastic. Thank you! You've also done a wonderful job with the documentation https://savchenkovaleriy.github.io/emacs-swift-module/documentation/emacsswiftmodule
I'll file issues if I run into any troubles.
Apart from https://github.com/roife/emt (which reminded me to look at your project), I haven't seen other integrations. I'd love to see what others are doing. What are you using it for?
So far, I'm replacing my previous implementations of reveal in finder (w/ selection) and sharing, with a snappy module implementation. Good times :)
Thanks again for the thorough work on it.
It's been a solid companion for many years :)
A year ago, u/vsavchenko announced https://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/wemj1z/writing_emacs_dynamic_modules_in_swift. I had been meaning to try it out for some time. Finally had the chance and it's really neat!
For example, most of the sharing logic from the experiment in the screen grab is below:
try env.defun(
"macos-module--share",
with: """
Share files in ARG1.
ARG1 must be a vector (not a list) of file paths.
"""
) { (env: Environment, files: [String]) in
let urls = files.map { URL(fileURLWithPath: $0) }
let picker = NSSharingServicePicker(items: urls)
guard let view = NSApp.mainWindow?.contentView else {
return
}
let x = try env.funcall("macos--emacs-point-x") as Int
let y = try env.funcall("macos--emacs-point-y") as Int
let rect = NSRect(
x: x + 15, y: Int(view.bounds.height) - y + 15, width: 1, height: 1
)
picker.show(relativeTo: rect, of: view, preferredEdge: .maxY)
return
}
I use dwim shell command for these things (async by default). For example https://github.com/xenodium/dwim-shell-command/blob/e4a139fe181ed1b576302fb36f3761fbf9914580/dwim-shell-commands.el#L83C7-L83C7
