# Features

- Enables you to use .bundle and other resources with SPM Unit-tests. (Perfect for Github action CI)

- Enables you to also use the same code in Xcode unit tests

### Example code:

```swift

// The temp.bundle folder can be in the root of your project (same directory as your `Package.swift`)

// iOS can only add resources inside .bundle folders

// macOS can only read files within its SandBox. Turn off Sandbox in info.plist (Using swift 5.3 and native spm assets is a better option here)

let path: String = ResourceHelper.projectRootURL(projectRef: #file, fileName: "temp.bundle/payload.json").path

Swift.print("path:  \(path)") // Users/John/Documents/AwesomeApp/temp.bundle/payload.json

```

**Note:** [Swift 5.3](https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0271-package-manager-resources.md) has support for adding assets with SPM, although a bit cumbersome. here is a tutorial 😅:  [https://medium.com/better-programming/how-to-add-resources-in-swift-package-manager-c437d44ec593](https://medium.com/better-programming/how-to-add-resources-in-swift-package-manager-c437d44ec593)

## Installation

`ResourceHelper` is available using the [Swift Package Manager](https://swift.org/package-manager/):

Using Xcode 11, go to `File -> Swift Packages -> Add Package Dependency` and search for ResourceHelper or enter: https://github.com/eonist/ResourceHelper

If you are using `Package.swift`, you can also add `ResourceHelper` as a dependency easily.

```swift

let package = Package(

  name: "TestProject",

  dependencies: [

    .package(url: "https://github.com/eonist/ResourceHelper.git", .branch("master"))

  ],

  targets: [

    .target(name: "TestProject", dependencies: ["ResourceHelper"])

  ]

)

```
