Overview

A package product defines an externally visible build artifact that’s available to clients of a package. The product is assembled from the build artifacts of one or more of the package’s targets. A package product can be one of two types:

Library: Use a library product to vend library targets. This makes a target’s public APIs available to clients that integrate the Swift package.
Executable: Use an executable product to vend an executable target. Use this only if you want to make the executable available to clients.

The following example shows a package manifest for a library called “Paper” that defines multiple products:

let package = Package(
    name: "Paper",
    products: [
        .executable(name: "tool", targets: ["tool"]),
        .library(name: "Paper", targets: ["Paper"]),
        .library(name: "PaperStatic", type: .static, targets: ["Paper"]),
        .library(name: "PaperDynamic", type: .dynamic, targets: ["Paper"]),
    ],
    dependencies: [
        .package(url: "http://example.com.com/ExamplePackage/ExamplePackage", from: "1.2.3"),
        .package(url: "http://some/other/lib", .exact("1.2.3")),
    ],
    targets: [
        .target(
            name: "tool",
            dependencies: [
                "Paper",
                "ExamplePackage"
            ]),
        .target(
            name: "Paper",
            dependencies: [
                "Basic",
                .target(name: "Utility"),
                .product(name: "AnotherExamplePackage"),
            ])
    ]
)
