Description: Use curly bracket placeholders within strings just like on Android. We created this in order to use the same translation phrases for both our Android and iOS apps.

This is a lightweight port of Phrase - Android string formatting into Swift 5 and used in production for our iOS customer app. It has no other dependencies and can be installed using Swift Package Manager or CocoaPods.

• Replace placeholders with curly brackets within strings with corresponding content ("Hello, my name is {name}" becomes "Hello, my name is Ada")
• Supports multiple placeholders per string
• When using Phrase for Android and PhraseSwift for iOS, you can use the same translation sources for both platforms
• Licence: Apache 2.0

This is the recommended way to install and use this library.

In Project Settings, on the tab "Package Dependencies", click " " and add github.com/nextbike/phrase-swift

1. Add a dependency in Package.swift:

   dependencies: [
       .package(url: "https://github.com/nextbike/phrase-swift", from: "1.0.1")
   ]

2. For each relevant target, add a dependency

   .target(
       name: "Example",
       dependencies: [
           .product(name: "PhraseSwift", package: "phrase-swift"),
       ]
   )

Also check out Editing a package dependency as a local package to work in local changes within your existing project that uses this package.

CocoaPods is a dependency manager for Cocoa projects. For usage and installation instructions, visit their website.

pod 'PhraseSwift', :git => 'https://github.com/nextbike/phrase-swift.git', '~> 1.0.1

import PhraseSwift

let source = "Hello {world}"
let output = Phrase.localize(source, keyValues: ["world": "nextbike"])

// output: "Hello nextbike"

Includes a suite of unit tests to cover frequent cases of placeholder location and handling within strings. Run swift test or open up the Swift Package within Xcode.
