How to pass environment variables

General
1

I want to pass environment variables from the shell script that I have that calls tuist generate . For instance either making a call like env tuist generate or env MY_VAR="some_value" tuist generate. |

I want to make possible to define the values like SWIFT_VERSION=“6.0” and IOS_MINIMUM_TARGET=“14.0” either in a .sh file or a .env to the Project.swift file to then generate the project.

Hi @claudiomadureira :wave:,

First of all, welcome to the community forum. Tuist Projects supports what the docs refer to as dynamic configuration, which solves your need.

Any variable passed with the prefix TUIST_ can then be read from the manifest files. In your particular case, you could do:

TUIST_SWIFT_VERSION=6.0 tuist generate

And then from the manifest:

func swiftVersion() -> String {
    if case let .string(environmentSwiftVersion) = Environment.swiftVersion {
        return environmentSwiftVersion
    } else {
        return "6.0" // Default value
    }
}

Let me know if that helps.
