• When you need to generate Swift 4 code

Customization

You can customize some elements of this template by overriding the following parameters when invoking swiftgen in the command line, using --param <paramName>=<newValue>

Parameter Name	Default Value	Description
enumName	FontFamily	Allows you to change the name of the generated enum containing all font families.
preservePath	N/A	Setting this parameter will disable the basename filter applied to all font paths. Use this if you added your font folder as a "folder reference" in your Xcode project, making that folder hierarchy preserved once copied in the build app bundle. The path will be relative to the folder you provided to SwiftGen.
accessModifier	N/A	Allows you to add an access modifier to the types and functions generated by this template. Use this if need to access the generated code from another framework.

Generated Code

Extract:

enum FontFamily {
  enum SFNSDisplay {
    static let black = FontConvertible(name: ".SFNSDisplay-Black", family: ".SF NS Display", path: "SFNSDisplay-Black.otf")
    static let bold = FontConvertible(name: ".SFNSDisplay-Bold", family: ".SF NS Display", path: "SFNSDisplay-Bold.otf")
    static let heavy = FontConvertible(name: ".SFNSDisplay-Heavy", family: ".SF NS Display", path: "SFNSDisplay-Heavy.otf")
    static let regular = FontConvertible(name: ".SFNSDisplay-Regular", family: ".SF NS Display", path: "SFNSDisplay-Regular.otf")
  }
  enum ZapfDingbats {
    static let regular = FontConvertible(name: "ZapfDingbatsITC", family: "Zapf Dingbats", path: "ZapfDingbats.ttf")
  }
}

Usage example

// You can create fonts with the convenience constructor like this:
let displayRegular = UIFont(font: FontFamily.SFNSDisplay.regular, size: 20.0)
let dingbats = UIFont(font: FontFamily.ZapfDingbats.regular, size: 20.0)

// Or as an alternative, you can refer to enum instance and call .font on it:
let sameDisplayRegular = FontFamily.SFNSDisplay.regular.font(size: 20.0)
let sameDingbats = FontFamily.ZapfDingbats.regular.font(size: 20.0)
