Package for interception of objc selectors in Swift.

## Usage

### Basic

Observe selectors on NSObject instances

```swift
import Interception

navigationController.setInterceptionHandler(
for: _makeMethodSelector(
selector: UINavigationController.popViewController,
signature: navigationController.popViewController
)
) { result in
print(result.args) // `animated` flag
print(result.output) // popped `UIViewController?`
}
```

You can also simplify creating method selector with `InterceptionMacros` if you are open for macros

```swift
import InterceptionMacros

navigationController.setInterceptionHandler(
for: #methodSelector(UINavigationController.popViewController)
) { result in
print(result.args) // `animated` flag
print(result.output) // popped `UIViewController?`
}
```

> Macros require `swift-syntax` compilation, so it will affect cold compilation time

You can set up multiple interception handlers as well, just make sure that you use different keys for each handler

```swift
import Intercexption

object.setInterceptionHandler(
for: _makeMethodSelector(
selector: #selector(MyObject.someMethod(arg1:arg2)),
signature: MyObject.someMethod(arg1:arg2)
),
key: "argumentsPrinter"
) { result in
// In case of multiple arguments
// you can access them as a tuple
print(result.args.0)
print(result.args.1)
}
```

```swift
import InterceptionMacros

object.setInterceptionHandler(
for: #methodSelector(MyObject.someMethod(arg1:arg2)),
key: "argumentsPrinter"
) { result in
// In case of multiple arguments
// you can access them as a tuple
print(result.args.0)
print(result.args.1)
}
```

### Library development

If you use it to create a library it may be a good idea to export custom selectors implicitly

```swift
// Exports.swift
@_exported import _InterceptionCustomSelectors
```

Also you may find some `@_spi` methods and Utils helpful

```swift
@_spi(Internals) import Interception
import _InterceptionUtils // Is not shown in the autocomplete
```

See [`combine-interception`](https://github.com/capturecontext/combine-interception) for usage example.

## Installation

### Basic

You can add Interception to an Xcode project by adding it as a package dependency.

1. From the **File** menu, select **Swift Packages › Add Package Dependency…**
2. Enter [`"https://github.com/capturecontext/swift-interception.git"`](https://github.com/capturecontext/swift-interception.git) into the package repository URL text field
3. Choose products you need to link them to your project.

### Recommended

If you use SwiftPM for your project, you can add CombineInterception to your package file.

```swift
.package(
url: "https://github.com/capturecontext/swift-interception.git",
.upToNextMinor(from: "0.3.0")
)
```

Do not forget about target dependencies:

```swift
.product(
name: "Interception",
package: "swift-interception"
)
```

```swift
.product(
name: "InterceptionMacros",
package: "swift-interception"
)
```
