Any example of running native Swift with Tauri V2?

[gergomiklos]

I want to capture and stream live system audio on MacOS, and the only possible solution for this is to use the native ScreenCaptureKit with Swift. There are two possible approaches: one is to start a Swift websocket server and send audio data there, and the other is to send the audio data directly to the JS frontend and handle it there. Is there a Swift plugin example similar to these? Or any Swift plugin example?

ever figure this out?

I don’t think there are any Swift-plugins for this unfortunately that I know of. There are a few other options though that might work:

Since your backend is already Rust, you can use the screencapturekit-rs crate, which wraps ScreenCaptureKit and can capture screen content and the audio that goes with it.

If you specifically need Swift-side APIs, you can use the swift-rs crate instead. You write the capture in Swift, expose a C ABI, and call it from Tauri.

You can also use a desktop recording SDK to record audio and video directly from a MacOS device. This can deliver audio either through a websocket or direct-to-app callback like you were suggesting, and will be the easiest in terms of set-up/maintenance.
