PerimeterX iOS SDK for Swift Package Manager

This repository provides Swift Package Manager support for PerimeterX iOS SDK, allowing you to easily integrate the SDK into your iOS application.

Installing PerimeterX SDK

To install PerimeterX SDK using Swift Package Manager you can follow the tutorial published by Apple using the URL for this repository with the current version:

  1. In Xcode, select “File” → “Add Packages...”
  2. Enter https://github.com/PerimeterX/px-iOS-Framework-spm.git

Alternatively, you can add the following dependency to your Package.swift file:

.package(url: "https://github.com/PerimeterX/px-iOS-Framework-spm.git", from: "3.2.6")

Why is there a separate repository for Swift Package Manager support?

The main git repository for PerimeterX iOS SDK is very large, and Swift Package Manager always downloads the full repository with all git history. This PerimeterX iOS SDK SPM repository is much smaller, so can be downloaded much more quickly.

Instead of downloading the full git history of PerimeterX iOS SDK and building it from source, this repository just contains a pointer to the precompiled XCFramework included in the latest PerimeterX iOS SDK release. Since PerimeterX iOS SDK doesn't provide source code it's strongly recommended that users depend on PerimeterX iOS SDK SPM instead.

When using PerimeterX iOS SDK SPM, the downloaded PerimeterX_SDK.xcframework isn't visible in the project navigator. To validate the authenticity of a PerimeterX iOS SDK SPM package, you can confirm that the Package.swift file references a binary XCFramework from https://github.com/PerimeterX/px-iOS-Framework/releases.
