Making a New Vapor Package

Use Swift Package Manager

mkdir MyPackage
cd MyPackage

Initialize a Package

swift package init --type library

Add Dependencies

I’m making a generic Fluent Models, so I only need Vapor and Fluent.

dependencies: [
      .package(url: "https://github.com/vapor/vapor.git", from: "3.0.0-rc.2"),
      .package(url: "https://github.com/vapor/fluent.git", from: "3.0.0-rc.2")
    ],

Add Targets

targets: [
        .target(
            name: "VaporCountries",
            dependencies: [
              "Vapor",
              "Fluent"
          ]),
        .testTarget(
            name: "VaporCountriesTests",
            dependencies: [
              "VaporCountries"
          ]),
    ]

Add Your Swift Files

Mine looks like this:

Tag your Release

git tag 0.0.0
git push --tags

Tag 0.0.0 is used, in Vapor community, for testing.

Make sure that anything that you export is marked as public

public struct CountryMigration<D>: Migration where D: QuerySupporting & SchemaSupporting & IndexSupporting & ReferenceSupporting {
  
  public typealias Database = D

Make Example Project

My first Vapor package is (It adds all countries and continents to any Vapor supported database):

https:/github.commihaelamj/VaporCountries

It’s usage:

migrations.add(migration: ContinentMigration<SQLiteDatabase>.self, database: .sqlite)
migrations.add(migration: CountryMigration<SQLiteDatabase>.self, database: .sqlite)

Example project:

https:/github.commihaelamj/TestVaporCountries

Imported data:

Continents:

Countries:
