Installation

The Swift Package Manager is a tool for managing the distribution of Swift code and is integrated into the swift compiler.

  1. Add the package to the dependencies in your Package.swift file.

    let package: Package = .init(
        ...
        dependencies: [
            .package(url: "https://github.com/bikecalc/swift-measures.git", branch: "main")
        ],
        ...
    )
  2. Add the package as a dependency on your target in your Package.swift file.

    let package: Package = .init(
        ...
        targets: [
            .target(name: "MyTarget", dependencies: [
                .product(name: "Measures", package: "swift-measures")
            ]),
        ],
        ...
    )
  3. Import the package in your source code.

    import Measures

Demonstration

  1. Create a dimension that conforms to the measurable protocol.

    struct FuelEfficiency: Measurable {
        let coefficient: Double
        let constant: Double
        let symbol: String
        
        init(
            coefficient: Double,
            constant: Double = 0,
            symbol: String
        ) {
            self.coefficient = coefficient
            self.constant = constant
            self.symbol = symbol
        }
        
        static let base: Self = .kilometresPerLiter
    }
  2. Create a minimum of two units.

    extension FuelEfficiency {
        static let kilometresPerLiter: Self = .init(
            coefficient: Length.kilometre.coefficient / Volume.liter.coefficient,
            symbol: "Km/L"
        )
    
        static let metresPerLiter: Self = .init(
            coefficient: Length.metre.coefficient / Volume.liter.coefficient,
            symbol: "m/L"
        )
    }
  3. Initialize a measure of your dimension with a value and unit.

    var measure: Measure<FuelEfficiency> = .init(5, .kilometresPerLiter)
  4. Convert the measure to your other unit.

    measure.convert(to: .metresPerLiter)
    print(measure) // Prints "5000m/L"
