[swift-dev] Swift compiler plugins

[Jorge Bernal]

I’ve recently been looking into implementing a lint checker for Swift code in my project. I’ve used SwiftLint[1] so far, but I’d love to build something that integrates more closely with Xcode: only check what is being rebuild, provide Fix-Its,…

From what I’ve found there’s no equivalent of Clang Plugins[2] in the Swift compiler.

Is this something interesting or already planned?
Should it go through a swift-evolution proposal?
