What this brings to NativeScript developers
NativeScript has always reached iOS through Objective-C metadata. That covers UIKit and most of the SDK, but not Swift-only APIs: WeatherKit, SwiftUI, SwiftData, Observation, Swift structs, enums and async functions, and most modern Swift packages. Using any of them today means hand-writing an @objc wrapper for every call:
// Today: a bridge per API, flattening Swift types into Objective-C ones.
@objc public class WeatherBridge: NSObject {
@objc public func forecast(_ city: String, completion: @escaping (NSDictionary?, NSError?) -> Void) {
Task {
do {
let f = try await WeatherClient().forecast(for: city, units: .celsius)
completion(["city": f.city, "highs": f.highs], nil)
} catch { completion(nil, error as NSError) }
}
}
}
With this stack, the Swift code is called as it is. Write Swift in App_Resources/iOS/src, add a SwiftPM package, or name an SDK module:
// App_Resources/iOS/src/Weather.swift
public enum Units { case celsius, fahrenheit }
public struct Forecast {
public let city: String
public let highs: [Double]
}
public final class WeatherClient {
public init() {}
public func forecast(for city: String, units: Units) async throws -> Forecast {
Forecast(city: city, highs: units == .celsius ? [21, 23.5, 19] : [70, 74, 66])
}
public func onUpdate(_ handler: @escaping (Forecast) -> Void) { /* ... */ }
}
# App_Resources/iOS/build.xcconfig
NS_SWIFT_MODULES = $(PRODUCT_MODULE_NAME) WeatherKit
NS_TYPESCRIPT_DECLARATIONS_PATH = $(SRCROOT)/typescript-declarations
ns build ios generates, type-checks, compiles and links the thunks, with no CLI change and no bridge code. The app's own module is imported by its product module name (MyApp below).
ES modules / TypeScript
import { WeatherClient, Units } from "ns:swift/MyApp";
import { WeatherService, WeatherQuery } from "ns:swift/WeatherKit";
const client = new WeatherClient();
const forecast = await client.forecast("Lisbon", Units.celsius); // async throws → Promise; a Swift throw rejects with SwiftError
forecast.highs; // [21, 23.5, 19], a real JS array
client.onUpdate((f) => console.log(f.city)); // closures take JS functions
const lisbon = CLLocation.alloc().initWithLatitudeLongitude(38.72, -9.14); // Objective-C objects mix in as usual
const daily = await WeatherService.shared.weather(lisbon, WeatherQuery.daily); // a Swift-only SDK API, generics included
CommonJS
const { WeatherClient, Units } = require("ns:swift/MyApp");
new WeatherClient()
.forecast("Lisbon", Units.celsius)
.then((forecast) => console.log(forecast.highs))
.catch((error) => console.log(error.message)); // the Swift error
Both forms survive bundling: @nativescript/vite leaves ns: specifiers to the runtime. The generator also writes swift!MyApp.d.ts (declare module "ns:swift/MyApp" { ... }), so editors type-check and autocomplete the Swift API like any other.
What else crosses, as the stack lands:
- protocols implemented by plain JS objects (delegates),
@Observable tracking, for await over AsyncSequences and Combine publishers (feat(swift-interop): modules, generics, protocols, Observation and SwiftUI (3/7) #520);
- SwiftUI views hosted in NativeScript layouts (feat(swift-interop): modules, generics, protocols, Observation and SwiftUI (3/7) #520);
Result, tuples, sets, C structs, and generic functions (feat(swift-interop): returning closures, generic functions, tuples, Result and C structs (5/7) #522);
- cancelling an
async call with an AbortSignal, subscripts, and operators (feat(swift-interop): adapter lifetime, cancellation, subscripts, Combine and operators (6/7) #523);
Any payloads, UUID, Decimal and Character (feat(swift-interop): Any, UUID and Decimal, performance, and docs (Swift interop 7/7) #517).
Objective-C APIs keep using the existing metadata path, unchanged. Nothing loads until JS imports ns:swift. Calls through Swift beat the matched Objective-C path in most workloads and come within 1.16x in the rest (benchmarks in #517).
This PR
The metadata generator learns to read Swift symbol graphs and write Swift thunks plus TypeScript declarations for what they can call. Nothing consumes the output yet; the runtime that loads it is the next PR.
objc-metadata-generator --swift-symbolgraph-dir <dir> [--skip-objc]
SymbolGraphLoader → Swift IR (streams SDK-scale graphs)
CapabilityClassifier → tier + reasons per declaration, coverage report
ProbeVerifier → swiftc type-checks probes, demotes what it rejects
SwiftSurface
ThunkEmitter → <Module>+NativeScript.swift
SwiftDefinitionWriter→ swift!<Module>.d.ts
metadata-generator/
├── src/Swift/ # loader, IR, types, classifier, probes, thunks
├── src/TypeScript/SwiftDefinitionWriter.*
├── TestFixtures/SwiftDemo/ # SwiftPM fixture + checked-in symbol graphs
└── tests/swift/ # swift-symbolgraph-tests, snapshots, tsc usage file
The CI job that runs these tests arrives in #519. Its tsc check also types the ns:swift runtime API, which that PR adds.
Evidence
- Before: the generator reads Objective-C headers only.
After: swift-symbolgraph-tests (65 tests) covers loading, classification, compiler verification, and snapshots of the IR, coverage, probes, thunks and .d.ts. tsc checks a usage file against the declarations.
- Objective-C metadata output is unchanged; the Swift path runs only when
--swift-symbolgraph-dir is passed.
Merge Danger
Door: two-way
Blast Radius: generator
The Swift path is opt-in by flag. The release build of the generator builds only the generator, so the test binaries stay out of the npm package. Snapshot files under tests/swift/snapshots/ and symbolgraphs/ are generated.
Sorry, something went wrong.
Uh oh!
There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.
Replace the substring-matching SymbolGraphParser with SymbolGraphLoader,
which reads symbol graphs with llvm::json into a Swift-specific IR
(src/Swift/SwiftIR.h) instead of the Objective-C Meta model.
The IR records every public declaration with its USR, kind, access,
parameters (labels, internal names, inout/ownership, type attributes,
defaults), effects, settability, failable initializers, generics,
availability, extension info and actor attributes, and resolves
memberOf/requirementOf/conformsTo/inheritsFrom/overrides relationships,
including members of types declared in other modules. Parameters are
parsed from declarationFragments because functionSignature reports the
internal name instead of the argument label for unlabeled parameters and
drops @autoclosure and default values; parsed labels are cross-checked
against the symbol name. Load problems surface as diagnostics with stable
codes, and errors make the generator exit non-zero.
- swift!<Module>.d.ts is explicitly type-only: top-level type names, no
members, until Swift members are callable.
- --swift-ir-output writes a deterministic JSON dump of the IR.
- swift-symbolgraph-tests (CTest) covers the loader against checked-in
SwiftDemo graphs, with IR and .d.ts snapshots.
- SwiftDemo gains declarations for every shape the loader models;
generate-symbolgraphs.sh reproduces the checked-in graphs.
Objective-C output is unchanged: metadata.bin and all .d.ts files for the
iOS simulator SDK are byte-identical to origin/main's generator.
Running the loader over Apple SDK Swift modules (SwiftUI, Foundation,
Charts, SwiftData, RegexBuilder, WeatherKit, Observation) surfaced
declaration shapes the fixture did not cover and a memory blow-up.
- Parse each symbol and relationship separately with a structural
skimmer instead of building one llvm::json DOM per file. SwiftUI's
465 MB of graphs went from 23.5 GB peak RSS and 22.6 s to 1.2 GB and
6.9 s.
- Parameter attributes before the label (`@ViewBuilder content:`) and
attributes with argument or generic lists (`@attached(...)`,
`@abi(func ...)`, `@KeyframesBuilder<Value>`) no longer derail
parameter parsing.
- Keep both symbols when Swift imports an Objective-C completion-handler
method or property a second time as `async` under the same USR
(`<usr>#async`), and when a subclass redeclares an Objective-C member
(`<usr>#<Owner>`), instead of dropping one as a duplicate. Membership
edges attach only to the variant declared in the target type.
- Record conformances a module adds to external types through extensions
on the external type rather than reporting dangling relationships.
- Record effects declared in accessor blocks (`{ get async }`).
All seven modules now load without diagnostics.
…ompiler verification
PR 2 of the Swift interop plan: decide, per declaration, whether it can be
reached from JavaScript, report it, and have the Swift compiler confirm
every decision that claims a declaration is callable.
- SwiftTypes parses TypeRefs into a type tree (nominal and member types,
generics, optionals, collections, tuples, function types with effects
and attributes, metatypes, existentials, opaque types, compositions),
normalizing Optional/Array/Dictionary and resolving generic parameters
in scope.
- CapabilityClassifier assigns each symbol one tier (objc-direct,
swift-generated, swift-specialized, type-only, unsupported,
not-applicable) with stable reason codes, the JS bridge of every
parameter and result, JS names, and overload ambiguity. The generated
surface bridges primitives, String, optionals, module classes/actors
(handles), structs (boxes) and payload-less enums (case names).
- CoverageReport writes <Module>.coverage.json with per-tier and per-kind
counts, a reason histogram, effective (ObjC + Swift) callable counts and
every symbol's classification.
- ProbeEmitter writes Swift that calls each generated declaration the way
a thunk will, through the shared SwiftSource invocation rendering.
ProbeVerifier type-checks the probes, maps compiler errors back to
symbols, demotes them as compiler-rejected and reclassifies until the
probes type-check; symbol graphs cannot express facts like ~Copyable.
- New flags: --swift-coverage-output, --swift-probe-output, --swift-verify
(with --swift-sdk, --swift-target, --swift-search-path,
--swift-framework-search-path, --swift-compiler, --swift-work-dir) and
--swift-deployment-target.
- Graphs from cross-import overlays record their declaring module so
generated code imports and qualifies it correctly.
Across SwiftUI, Foundation, Charts, SwiftData, RegexBuilder, WeatherKit and
Observation at an iOS 18 deployment target, all generated probes type-check
after at most two passes; the compiler rejects two Foundation declarations
that use the noncopyable Subprogress. Objective-C output is unchanged.
…tions
PR 3-5 of the Swift interop plan, generator side: emit the Swift code the
runtime calls, and declare exactly that surface to TypeScript.
- SwiftSurface is the registration model (type table, member kinds, flags
and signature codes of NativeScript/runtime/SwiftInterop.h) shared by
the thunk emitter and the TypeScript writer, so the two cannot disagree.
- ThunkEmitter (--swift-thunk-output) writes <Module>+NativeScript.swift:
one thunk per generated callable, reading 24-byte argument slots and
reporting through the runtime's API table without importing runtime
headers, plus ns_swift_register_<Module> (@c when the compiler has it,
@_cdecl otherwise). Classes and actors cross as retained handles with
their dynamic type index, structs as boxes the JS object owns, payload-
less enums as case names; availability is checked at call time.
Enum cases are qualified so a case named `none` is not Optional.none.
- SwiftDefinitionWriter now writes swift!<Module>.d.ts as
`declare module "ns:swift/<Module>"`, mirroring the runtime's member
groups, inherited overloads, signature keys and ambiguity rules, and
augments ns:swift's SwiftModules interface.
- The SwiftDemo fixture gains value, error and lifetime declarations, a
checked-in Interop/ copy of its generated thunks (kept identical to the
generator's output by a test) and a two-module Package.swift.
- Tests type-check the thunks against the separately compiled fixture
module and the declarations with tsc when available.
All thunks generated for SwiftUI, Foundation, Charts, SwiftData,
RegexBuilder, WeatherKit and Observation (about 1,860) type-check against
the iOS 18 simulator SDK.

Changes
The metadata generator adds Swift symbol graph loading, declaration classification, compiler verification, TypeScript definitions, coverage reports, and interop thunk generation. The change also adds Swift fixtures, tests, command-line options, and CI coverage.
Swift symbol graph generation
| Layer / File(s) |
Summary |
Fixture declarations and symbol graph metadata-generator/TestFixtures/SwiftDemo/* |
The SwiftDemo package adds public Swift declarations and extensions covering types, members, and values. A script generates symbol graphs, with a checked-in graph for the module. |
IR, symbol graph loading, and type parsing metadata-generator/src/Swift/SwiftIR.*, SymbolGraphLoader.*, FragmentTokens.*, SwiftTypes.*, metadata-generator/tests/swift/SymbolGraphLoaderTests.cpp, SwiftTypesTests.cpp |
The loader parses symbol graphs into Swift IR and resolves symbols and relationships. Tokenization and type parsing handle supported Swift type forms. Tests cover graph loading, diagnostics, and type parsing. |
Capability classification and invocation surface metadata-generator/src/Swift/CapabilityClassifier.*, SwiftSource.*, SwiftSurface.*, metadata-generator/tests/swift/ClassifierTests.cpp |
The classifier assigns capability tiers and bridge metadata. Invocation and surface models describe callable forms, availability, signatures, and overload properties. |
Compiler probes and verification metadata-generator/src/Swift/ProbeEmitter.*, ProbeVerifier.*, metadata-generator/tests/swift/snapshots/SwiftDemo.probe.swift |
The probe emitter creates compiler-checkable Swift source. The verifier maps compiler diagnostics to symbols and retries after rejected declarations are demoted. |
Interop thunks and coverage reports metadata-generator/src/Swift/ThunkEmitter.*, CoverageReport.*, metadata-generator/TestFixtures/SwiftDemo/Interop/*, metadata-generator/tests/swift/snapshots/SwiftDemo.coverage.json |
The thunk emitter creates runtime callbacks and registration metadata. Coverage output records tier and symbol totals. Tests compare generated thunks and coverage snapshots. |
TypeScript declarations metadata-generator/src/TypeScript/SwiftDefinitionWriter.*, metadata-generator/tests/swift/snapshots/swift!SwiftDemo.d.ts, metadata-generator/tests/swift/typescript/usage.ts |
The definition writer emits TypeScript declarations for Swift APIs. Snapshot and compilation tests cover valid usage and selected invalid calls. |
Generator and test integration metadata-generator/src/main.cpp, metadata-generator/build-step-metadata-generator.py, metadata-generator/tests/*, .github/workflows/pull_request.yml, metadata-generator/README.md |
The command-line generator adds Swift input, verification, and output options, plus optional Objective-C skipping. CMake, test support, CI, and documentation add the Swift test workflow. |

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 0bba2
-
Swift thunk registration and the generated TypeScript declarations can disagree about which overloads are ambiguous. The runtime that consumes the thunks ships in a later PR. Unify the overload-ambiguity rule before merging, or explicitly accept the mismatch for now.

561-563: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial
Report skipped module members when the name is not a valid identifier or is reserved.
The writer silently drops these members. The header comment says every declaration is backed by a thunk. A member that is skipped here still has a thunk, so the declarations no longer describe the whole runtime surface. This is acceptable for the current fixture. Consider emitting a quoted export or a comment for the skipped member.

172-183: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win
Require at least one symbol before the loop so these tests cannot pass with no assertions.
EffectsInsideClosureTypesDoNotLeak loops over symbolsAt(demo(), "Counter.withSerialExecutor(_:)"). ParameterModifiersAndAttributes loops over symbolsAt(demo(), "Counter.preconditionIsolated(_:file:line:)"). Both members are synthesized by the toolchain for the actor. If you regenerate the fixture with a toolchain that does not emit them, or if a loader regression drops them, symbolsAt returns an empty vector. The loop body then never runs, and the tests pass without checking the closure-effect or @autoclosure/default-value parsing.

Use one overload-ambiguity rule for both outputs.
resolveNames marks ambiguousOverload only when overloads have identical jsKind signature strings. SwiftDefinitionWriter::overlaps uses a broader rule for optional, numeric, textual, and related object bridges. These pairs can have different jsKind strings.
SwiftSurface copies ambiguousOverload into kAmbiguous, while SwiftDefinitionWriter computes ambiguity independently. The shared surface can therefore disagree with the generated declarations. Move the overlap predicate into a shared helper and use it from both resolveNames and SwiftDefinitionWriter. The helper must receive the type-hierarchy context needed for related nominal types.
♻️ Suggested fix

- if (&other != &entry && other.signature == entry.signature) {
- capability.ambiguousOverload = true;

- }
+ for (const auto& other : entries) {

+ const auto& a = capability.parameters;
+ const auto& b = _result.bySymbol[other.id].parameters;
+ if (a.size() != b.size()) continue;
+ bool all = true;
+ for (size_t i = 0; all && i < a.size(); i++) {

lines 467 - 470:
Introduce a shared overlap predicate that accepts the type-hierarchy context and
captures the broader optional, numeric, textual, and related-nominal bridge
rules currently used by SwiftDefinitionWriter::overlaps. Replace the
signature-string comparison in resolveNames with this helper, and update
SwiftDefinitionWriter::overlaps to reuse it so SwiftSurface’s
ambiguousOverload/kAmbiguous state matches generated declarations.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Declare a macOS minimum so swift build on a macOS host can compile the fixture.
platforms lists only .iOS(.v15). SwiftPM therefore uses its default macOS deployment target when it builds on the host. With tools version 5.9, that default is below macOS 10.15. Shapes.swift declares public actor Counter and async methods on Loader. When the macOS target is below 10.15, the compiler rejects these declarations with "concurrency is only available in macOS 10.15.0 or newer". README.md says this package builds the SwiftDemo and SwiftDemoInterop modules. A plain swift build from the fixture directory therefore fails. Builds that target the iOS simulator are not affected.

line 6:
Update the Package.swift platforms declaration to include a macOS minimum of
version 12 alongside the existing iOS 15 requirement, so the SwiftDemo fixture
builds successfully with swift build on macOS. Preserve the existing iOS
platform constraint.
