CUv

A module for libuv in pure Swift applications. This module was built for the use of the Caramel framework.

Installation

First, you must build and install libuv. This package assumes libuv is installed to "/usr", so we'll install it here.

  1. Clone libuv
  2. Check out to the tag you want (this build assumes a minimum of v1.7.5)
  3. cd libuv
  4. sh autogen.sh
  5. ./configure --prefix=/usr
  6. make install (with sudo as needed)

Usage

Add this to your Package.swift file:

import PackageDescription

let package = Package(
    dependencies: [
        .Package(url: "https://github.com/CaramelForSwift/CUv.git", majorVersion: 1)
    ]
)

Then you can import the module and use libuv functions like so:

import CUv

let loop = uv_default_loop()
uv_run(loop, UV_RUN_DEFAULT)
print("Event loop: \(loop)")
