SwiftYNAB

SwiftYNAB is a Swift framework for iOS/macOS/watchOS/tvOS/Linux for accessing the You Need a Budget API. It currently supports all endpoints made available by the API.

You can browse the online documentation here to see what features this framework offers.

How to use it

Instructions on how to add a Swift Package dependency to your project can be found here.

Trying it out

Personal API access token

The project comes with a small iOS demo that shows you how to use the framework. If you want to try that out, or if you want to write your own code, you will need a personal API access token.

Make sure you go here and get one:

https://api.youneedabudget.com/#personal-access-tokens

Sample code

Once you have your personal access token, you can use it to try out the framework in your app. Start by creating a new project and at the top of the file where you plan to use SwiftYNAB, add:

import SwiftYNAB

Then, you can try it out by writing something like:

let ynab = YNAB(accessToken: "TOKEN_GOES_HERE")

Task {
    do {
        let budgets = try await ynab.budgets.budgets(includeAccounts: false)

        for budget in budgets {
            print(budget.name)
        }
    } catch {
        print("Uh oh, something went wrong")
    }
}

## Contributing

If you want to build and test the code yourself, you can check out this repository and open it directly in Xcode. From there, you can edit the source code and run the tests.

In order to run the built-in demo app, make sure you don’t have the SwiftYNAB package open in Xcode, then open the demo app in Xcode from the demo directory. You should be able to run it in your simulator and take it for a spin.

### Recommended

In order to run the linters, or generate documentation, and to take advantage of the pre-commit hooks, you should:

Install mise
Once mise is installed successfully, run mise install to install all of the project dependencies
Run mise run bootstrap to setup the project for development
Run mise run to see the available, pre-configured tasks
